Generally Shunyata works well with ARC

Phythons or Anaconda

Source 2 - Avid Acutus SP reference + Thales Reference tone arm + Benz Micro LPS (DS Audio Master 1 broken tip repaired but cost me USD2k. Still having issues - channel imbalance - back to dealer. However, channel issues not withstanding, sounded very very nice. Need to get it back soonest)

Source 3 - DCS Vivaldi + Antelope reference clock or Cybershaft Op18 (not floating my boat so far)

Source 5 - ROON ROCK with Aurender W20 as NAS & 2 units of SOTM switch with 10M input (the new frontier but still cannot beat CD for now) - ROON endpoint - Vivaldi upsampler

Amplification - Naim Statement

Speakers - ProAc Carbon 8 + JL FM113 x2 (replacement purchased - Stella Utopia EVO but due to lockdown, could be a year's wait)

Purepower 2000 x 2 (&$@#% but
sounds nice)

Shunyata Denali X 2

I've had good success with a Transparent Reference MM2x cable on my Ref Phono 2SE

Which one, the REF or the PURE?

Do they have any dealers?

I use his REF line. I purchased direct from him. I believe if you call him he will send you a demo

I use JPS Labs with my Ref 75 and throughout my system. I think they are the most neutral cables without any 'signature' that i have heard.
