Reading over your profile- I am surprised that you are not using an all-Triode Wire Labs (TWL) set-up. I am more interested in reading about the likeness of Audience cabling vs the brands in your system.

I meant to add........, it's because I merely preferred the overall sonics of the CRL loom, as it just has a sound that involves......., to the point nothing else mattered, not until I sampled the musicality of said Audience Au24 SE USB cable that is.
And once again, it's a sound that merely feels right.
Hello once again, fantja,
While I'm very taken with the TWL AC Cords, I've a Synergistic Research UEF Black ( 10AWG ) and WireWorld Electra 7 still sitting around to be used, as I'm leaning more and more towards one brand, and having used SR Tricon Analog cables in the past, I liked the manner in which they used silver conductors, in the past while also owning CRL Bronze ICs ( which were a hybrid build, in much the same manner as the TWL Spirit ICs ) ........, let's just say, I've decided it needed something different.
The one thing that I've taken from all of this is........., ones speakers and amplification will tell you what each one prefers as far as a particular type of conductor, yet I've found that as far as the source component as far as say in my case........, from the Mac Mini, into the DAC as in USB cables, and then that vital IC into ones integrated of preamp says it wants a slightly different flavor all together......., in my mind, I've to listen and then adjust said needs for each accordingly, and pray that I come across the correct balance which strikes me as musical enough to live with long term.
And while I might use different power cords here and there, I'd much prefer to use the same brand when it comes to ICs or Speaker Cables, and in truth I'm not sold on certain brands which I know don't suit my ears or senses more so then others.
Biased in that way, but in voicing ones system........, like food, it's always about the flavoring.
By the way I have several USB cables and they all sound different

I've been through a total of 11 of them, from a few made in the U.K. | Italy | Poland, ranging from $50 - $900, and each carried a different signature, yet in the end my investment in said Audience Au24 SE was much like the story of Goldilocks........., its overall sound is just right.
Yet in said reality, I know we each have different priorities in what we listen for or to, and as always we've to each rethink what fits our own personal taste as well as systems, as I'm not much for voicing my system to suits my neighbors ear, when mind are the ones I've to please at the end of the day.
That's why I've always referred to my system as " Mi-Fi " because in life, it's very personal is it not?.
very nice- O_oscar.
it appears that you can go several different ways (SR, Wire world, or Audience).
I can vouch for the Wireworld Electra 7 PC- it is excellent.
I know that the Platinum WW series is outstanding- at a substantial cost, of course.
I, too, am currently looking into SR- it is on my must demo list whenever I can schedule a dealer/retailer visit.
Thanks again fantja,
As I've found myself very content with my system, I merely find that changing its sound with cabling has in a sense opened my life up to having different sonics without the desire to change a single component.
As my intent is to place the WW Electra 7 onto my Dac, and said SR AC Cord onto either integrated, as I tend to rotate through them seasonally, I can say that as a proponent of the SR HFTs and ECTs, it has become a mind bending experience and then some, as they work wonderful in our home, and as room treatment devices go........, they don't draw as much attention to themselves in the same manner as having pillows stuck onto the walls, ot ceiling corners like room tune types, which I can't see doing with out modern Italian decor........, not here I might add with a very serious face at that.
As far as the WW Platinum anything goes.........., not on my watch, I'd much rather focus on said Audience " SEs " and enjoy what's left of my time on the planet enjoying music, as continuing chasing a slight 10 - 25% improvement, if that.
Thanks again for just being you, and always seeming eager to assist those in need.
I hear that -O_oscar.
it really is amazing how cabling contributes to one's system.
I have had the pleasure of listening to several systems that expressed 100% of the music. This is my end-goal. Life is too short otherwise.
I'm in 198.9% agreement. This is the final frontier for me as well......., after adding a dedicated server like an Aurender N100H in the new year, I should say is the end of my quest.
To which I believe shall see me doing more listening, and less writing, as I'm nearing a point in life where there aren't many more things in audio I need to learn. Aging and wisdom are meant to go hand in hand, at least in a ideal world that is.
Life's to short indeed........., once someone has figured it all out, it's time for that never ending dirt nap.........., I'd live it, and enjoy each and every moment surrounding by real people and loved ones......, and ones system applies in said last phrase.
Enjoy it fantja.
