Nice share

I have a few Wireworld cables linking my gears but the platinums are definitely on my wishlist.

Not knowing what you are currently using; these are by far the best I have tried and I have tried quite a few in my time to include some that were $4K.

Have you ever considered using right angle connectors at the wall? I am trying some custom made units that seem to keep the cables from sticking out too far. They seem to work and I might reorder my Transparent power cords with this option.

The only two into the wall are for the MC2301's. I'm using an Isoclean PT-106 power bar for the rest. Therefore, I have never considered a right angled connector.

i've been agonizing over your statement

Silver Eclipse goes in between an Audio Research Ref Anniversary pre and Audio research D-250 amp

An Eclipse connects an Audio Research Phono 2SE to the ARC REFANN pre

Cheers!

I'm sorry I caused a brain overload.

IMO, I'd focus on consistency in cables -- i.e., all of the same model/type.

Sometimes that isn't possible because some cable companies offer signal & not power. However, when they do offer both types, I go for both & of the same vein.

Very impressive precious metal synergy Bob!

Their plugs look high quality construction too. I always believe that the real truth in wire lies in the metallurgy...

Really Nice Bob...

Congrats on your system!

I'm a big WW's fan, but in my country, there is only one WW dealer, and his price is the most expensive that I've seen... I've bought at US online dealers...

My next step is buy a WW platinum power cord and a Gold Eclipse 6 XLR interconnect...

Regards,

Rui

Bob, that's some cable loom. I am sure you will enjoy it very much.

AS you said, let the music begin.
