Description

Sonus Faber Strads, Im fairly new to this hobby but have assembled what I hope is a good system to start. Mcintosh c2300 Pre amp. Mc501 mono amps Vpi Super Scoutmaster turntable with dinavector 20x High output. And last weekend my Sonus Faber strads arrived. I was using some old linn 5140s I pursched about 10 years ago for my media room. And the linn bi amp speaker wire. Having bought all this equipment since march of this year my wallet needs to rest for a while. However I know I need to work on cables, but which ones and what should come next? I also have a benchmark DAC 1 and a dedicated mac mini with a dedicated 4 terabyte drive. Any advice on my system and what should come next would be welcome.

Nice Setup. I would look at componet isolation next with a ausio stand by Billy Bags, Steve Bliss etc...And tweak the isolation of each unit with the cone/puck of your choice. Speaker cables- everyone has the latest greatest cable. The ANTI CABLE at $10 a foot is a HiFi bargain and sound great with my Mac/amp/preamp Thiel combo. Other cables I would listen to include Kimber and Analysis
