This site is managed by The Cable Company, which was founded in 1989 as a clearing house for information on new audio cables, and home of The Cable Library, a try-at-home cable evaluation service. Based on what I've read, people are split over single over it. is the on-line clearinghouse for pre-owned high performance audio and video cables of all types, and cable manufacturers' closeouts. I previously had Blue Circle separates (a BC3 and BC24). I still have a Blue Circle integrated kicking around. There really is no substitute for trying out cables in your own system and making your own decisions. And a friend prefers AN-Vx over Sogon for his preamp to amp link. I prefer Isis interconnect on my SUT over AN-Vx or Sogon. Similarly an Audio Note copper interconnect may be preferred over a silver in a given system. I suspect the choice between Isis and a less expensive AN silver cable might involve even more compromises. Going from Isis copper speaker cables to SPx silver speaker cables results in a very different sound, and it's conceivable somebody could prefer the copper over the silver in a particular system. In going from Lexus to Isis speaker cables (or from a Lexus to Isis interconnect), there is a significant improvement with really no downsides. In other words, the next more expensive cable may not always be an improvement especially when switching from a copper to a silver cable. I have said this elsewhere so I apologize if it sounds familiar, but in the Audio Note cable lines there is not always a clear progression from one cable to the next. I could split an Isis 168 to 84/84, but that might negate much of it's benefit? As I don't want to split the Lexus 96 strands into 48/48. Since biwiring doubles the cost of the cables, I think I will pass for now. Some like it, while others prefer the coherence of a single run with the silver jumpers. Based on what I've read, people are split over single over it. I would be curious if you could expand on the difference between the interconnects? How big of jump is it? A little, or a lot? So in the meantime, I'd rather not sink to much money into copper cables. Buying an extra 2m (or 4m) worth of Spe/Spx makes a good dent in the price of the monoblocks. I think I will upgrade to silver cables with the switch to mono blocks, As then I can get away with very short runs. I read the 211 is great, but I haven't heard one yet. All Pulse RED cables use exclusive and proprietary wire not found any where else in the industry Pulse power cord SALE Pulse four foot power cord only. I also like the 45, so I'd try that if the right amp comes along. So maybe an Empress, or the Neiro? We'll see what shows up on the used/demo market. Long term I'd like to move towards a level 3/4 system, probably based around the 2a3. Although, this doesn't change the length of speaker cables I need. I would be happy to switch if it's better. At some point I'd like to compare the two. I was thinking about buying an Oto SE Sig, when I decided to try the Technics. I'll probably make a thread about it, but it's changed my mind on class D. The amp is still breaking in, with about 100 hours. I normally don't go for anything like this, but I trust him. It was strongly recommended to me by someone with a Kondo Ongaku. I'm also trying out a Technics SU-G30 (it's Gan Fet, essentially their reference scaled down). Not sure if that money is better saved for elsewhere (amps), or if I should just save longer and jump straight to isis cables.Īny help you could offer would be appreciated.Ĭlick to expand.Thanks for the info. Price wise, Lexus is much more affordable at this time. I should also clarify, that budget comes into play here. Is it a subtle improvement, or a large one? I've read the ISIS cables have better bottom end and greater detail, but can't find how big of jump this is. There doesn't seem to be much info online comparing the two. I'm trying to understand the sonic difference between Lexus XL and Isis speaker cables. So my options are:Ģ runs per side, one for each polarity. I'm looking at copper cables at this time. The cables would be used with some AN-E/Spe HE's. I've decided to switch over to an Audio Note based system. I could use some help with speaker cables. I've very much appreciated the forum over the years.
