Nordost speaker cables, Wireworld for everything else.

Rod#S 10-16-2012 09:38 AM

Kimber, Monster, Ixos and Acoustic Research. There is even some Radio Shack stuff in there going to my old dual cassette player, VCR and original Xbox.

Going all Kimber or WirreWorld is the ultimate goal.

You can get most of them from my signature line. What you don't see there are the AudioQuest ethernet cables, WireWorld HDMI cables, and the HiFi-Tuning power cord on the TV.

TMC 10-18-2012 09:49 PM

6 pair of Acoustic Zen Silver Ref 2's in XLR. Having 3 pair of custom (SLVR Cardas RCA ends and 18AWG silver wire @ 1M) made for the new Esoteric disc player.

Nico 10-19-2012 09:52 AM

Nordost vs Wireworld
 
Regarding only cost, how does Wireworld compare to Nordost at equivalent quality or level ? I am mostly wondering for the US market

Thanks

Nico

Shaffer 10-19-2012 11:37 AM

I use different interconnects, depending on application: Cardas, WW, Kimber, DHLabs, Tara Labs, and something I'm sure I'm forgetting.

Speaker cable - Dunlavy

Power cords and accessories - all DIY

I gathered a bunch of interconnects when I worked in the business, most were freebies, and that's what I use to this day. The speaker cable was a bonus of sorts from the manufacturer, as were the silver Music Meter jumpers. AC-wise, I look for interesting wire and work from there. A few of my past efforts:
