800Ds in my system!

[KahunaCanuck]

I have Wireworld stuff:
Silver Eclipse 6 XLRs from my Pro to the Amps

Silver Eclipse 6 Speaker Cables

Platinum Eclipse HDMI

Oasis Sub Cables:

& Silver Electra Power Cords:


I had a mix of stuff before, so this made a huge improvement to the overall sound when I upgraded...more detail, wider soundstage etc. Even my wife noticed the difference between the previous mid range Audioquest HDMI and the Platinum when I A/B'd a Bluray...the pic popped more!

Heh, this is scary.

I just bought standard xlr cables from the local guitar store. However I get better sound through my hdmi to ssp800 than through my ayre qb9. Now, I know how amazing the qb9 can sound, and it just doesnt come through. :/ So, cables and better amps are next.

Btw. anyone else reading here, have good experience with other cables?

Dropped by one our local stereo emporiums (if local is 75 miles) and listened to a set of new 800Ds (Diamond) driven by a McIntosh MC452, C40 & MCD500. Believe it was as good a sound as I've heard. Right up there with the last Wilson Watt/Puppy iteration. Stunning sonics. Listened to a set of 803Diamonds on the same system afterwards. As good as the 803Ds may have been, the 800Ds totally ruined them for me.
