Folks, here's the dilemma - got a balanced CDP for my BAT gear. Between the pre and the amp I use Acoustic Zen Absolute Copper, which I really like, but the only XLR IC I have for other purposes is the AZ Matrix Reference 2. It's cheaper than the Absolute Copper ($1500 vs $700), but still a nice cable. So what is the general consensus- to put the better one between the source and pre, or between the pre and the amp?Thanks in advance.

- if you have more than one source than use the better IC from pre to amp so it affects all sources - PhilJ 20:08:21 07/03/16 (1)

- Try both places. Actually LISTEN to how it sounds. Solution is leave them where they sound BETTER, not theory - Smelly_Socks 13:20:55 06/28/16 (0)
