What cable do you use
Their speaker cables and interconnects are excellent. I suspect you don’t hear about them as much because their first focus was power and they were a bit late to the game with other cables, and other manufacturers are more well established and spend more on marketing their signal cables.

I'm using Morrow 5 series (newest version) on all interconnects (balanced/se) and biwired speaker cables.

FWIW, while I am presently using AQ Columbia and Colorado ICs, I have a Shunyata Venom and Delta IC that is arriving for a 10-day trial loan on Monday. And...their new amazing Alpha USB cable as well!
