I tried Synergistic, Nordost, Siltech and Stage 3 cables. The Stage 3 Magnus Prime cable was far and away the best match for my system. I will be posting a review shortly. I highly recommend these cables.

Adding - Looks like Spearit Sound may be able to help with Siltech demo. Will post thoughts.

Posting some thoughts on cables. I have tried a full compliment of Synergistic and the Stage 3 Magnus Prime. The Synergistic were good. Soundstage was wide and open. If anything, I thought they were a little "technicolor"....almost exaggerated in my system/room. I then left some of the Synergistic power cables and powercell 4 in the system and tried Stage 3 Magnus Prime. Images were more focussed and centered in my room. Horns were amazingly lifelike and true. These are extremely neutral compared to others I have tried. They did not have the etched signature the Valhalla had with the Tidals.

I am working on a Siltech Prince/Princess demo. This is a little more challenging since the Cable Company no longer works with them. I may end up trying LS 188 mk 2 speaker cable with the Princess interconnect.

The ebony piano cera are sitting hapily in my room. Brian was great to work with. I am adding the einstein amp as well and will be demoing cables over the next few weeks. Thanks for the input. I will post some thoughts as I demo.

Thank you. I am replacing the Valhalla. They were great with my Raidho speakers. I am considering syergistic tesla apex, siltech and stage 3 right now.

Thank you. I am having fun. I read your review of the Talea. Sounds like a fantastic tonearm. Also, saw that you are listen to some Latin...Poncho Sanchez Psychedelic Blues on vinyl is a good one. Cheers
