An MIT Magnum AC2 for amplification or Transparent Reference for any application. Voodoo and pseudo science does not make for great sound. Unless the cables deal with real world AC issues then they are problematic with variable degrees of usefulness.

Sometimes, we forget about any cable being a "filter". For better or worse, these are the facet(s) they bring into any system.
Transparent cables filter out the crap that ruins the audio signal. No other cables I have used or demo ' d come close. Other cables can offer exotic materials and construction techniques, but they do not fundamentally address the noise issue. The results are startlingly lifelike dynamics, tone, contrast and dimensionality in an airy , deep and wide soundstage!

"Transparent cables filter out the crap that ruins the audio signal."
Why not just use competent filtering in the power supply of the amp? A cable simple provides AC voltage to the power supply whose entire function is to provide filtered DC to the active devices that amplify the signal. It makes no sense to buy an expensive cable when a competent engineer can make a clean and quiet power supply. That's where the filter should be installed.
Why tell me? All I have to work with is the real world and in the real world Transparent Cables provide a better listening experience.

I have been a fan of Transparent Cable since 2004.
Thanks again for sharing- dave b.
to be fair, speaking about Transparent PC(s), I have only heard the OPUS model on 3 occasions in 2012 & 2013. For this kind of money/performance ratio, I would expect nothing less.
In the past, I owned Transparent mid-level IC(s) MM1 series. They were superb for my somewhat mid-fi system circa 2004/2005. Also, around that time I did listen to the upper level offerings in a $50K Claase'/B&W/Lexicon system. I know that all of these cables/cords get sweeter as you go up the "chain".
