I'm pretty much a Cardas kind of guy myself.

None of the above. I use a full loom of Jorma Prime cables & am very happy with them. Overall they are the best cables I have ever used! Amazingly natural & musical sounding

I voted 'other' as I use two different vendor cables.

On paper the 'loom' theory sounds good, but in practice I found that doesn't always result in the best sound.

I use AQ ICs from my source components to my MF A5 Int Amp, but MIT Shotguns for the speaker cables.

And my PCs are Pangea.

I did the full AQ IC/Speaker loom, and I did the full MIT Shotgun IC/Speaker loom - the Goldilocks sweet spot was a combo of both.

I find it interesting that Nordost and Synergistic Research are considered to be among "Others."

I have owned some of both and they are nice cables. I think choice of cables often comes down to what your local dealer(s) carry and what you are able to try in your system.

+1. True. Fortunately my Dealer carries a good selection of the best cables, so I had a few options to choose from (eg: Siltech, Jorma, PAD, Tara Labs). It's all panned out well as i'm very happy with my choice

All MIT for signal except Shunyata for digital.
