Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Systems Better Meridian Cables/than factory

Well I can hear a big difference between recordings made by Chesky or AudioQuest and the standard mass market stuff.

So I would say just good enough.

Believe me I have long runs in my new room for digital and video and I purchased through Blue Jeans Cable. Otherwise it would have cost me more than my addition...and for what...slightly better sound??? I feel my 518 will dejitter enough to make me happy. Plus I'm using ballanced digital between two 518's.

I look for the best sound in my system that doesn't cost too much. Although I did spend a lot on my analog interconnects since I use mono block amps I have them right next to my speakers. Kimber 8TC worked well for the short run between amp and speaker. Even that's expensive for some people.

I believe you don't have to spend a fortune...just find a cable design that sounds well in your system. Cable swapping is to get that last bit of resolution out of your system. Keeping audio and video in the digital domain as close as you can before the analog conversion to the speakers saves a lot of time with tweeking cables. The Meridian speakers is the way to go....as long as you like there sound. Some people don't. If I were stating over, I would buy them. But I'm happy for now. I have my system sounding the way I want it too.
