Ok,
so finally we get in some of there stuff. Panamax is in as well. The Rockefeller speaker wires and the Jaguar Ic's are what I'm looking at so thats exacly what I tested.
Once the Monstercable was removed after a long listening on a Krell 400 Intergraded , Krell SACD standard and Jm lab speakers, The Audioquest went in place and man ..........DAMN. The difference in these cables on this system was unbelieveable. The way monstercable held back what this system could do was a crime. I beleive this is the biggest difference I have ever heard in a wire swap out. The piano was just sitting in the room and I could smell the felt from the hammers hitting the piano strings. Shocking how good this system sounded compared to just changing out the damn Monstercable.
I'm not a monster hater, but man come on, can there wire just be that bad sounding??? Noisy and closet is what it sounded like with it in place. I had to reach to find a tone I liked. I'm not one to think that wire can make this much of a difference. My past systems have not been anywhere near Krell and JM labs so I'm assuming it's the quality of the gear thats allowing me to hear larger differences in changing out cables. I guess testing wires out on a receiver and some old polk speakers don't allow you to hear all the differences.
My system I have now I haven't really done much cable swapping. I found cables(Kimber) that worked great on my last system(B&K and LSI) and thought ok, made a really nice Improvement why keep changing right???
Well I'm gonna get me some Jaguars with 36 v DBS and try em with a pair of Rockefeller speaker wires. They also have the DBS system on them. I'm also thinking of the CV8's which are the same wire as the Rocks but round instead of flat.
I'm very excited to hear if any Improvements I can make by going to the next level of audio cables. I hope they do my system justice. I don't use Monster and I don't expect the difference I heard on the Krell/ JM labs system but hell who knows, maybe it will sound worse. But I gotta try.
I'm also very Intrested in the construction. Solid core wires. Simple yet they seem to believe it's the best way. We shall see. They did sound Effing amazing on the Krell.... damn I liked that
