Hi - I haven't tried the Sablons yet. Am thinking that I'm going about this the wrong way - need to sort out my speakers first before I go back to power cables and speaker cables.
I think that's probably the best way to go about it. I just purchased my speaker upgrade and am taking that approach. The speakers haven't arrived yet, but I took the opportunity to get a pair of Audience Aud24SEs because they clearly outperformed my current JPS Labs Superconductor Vs when testing my D240/50 with Trenner & Friedl Ellas (great speakers even though I didn't choose them in the end). When I got them back home (I did my speaker shopping for 6 weeks in HK), I hooked them up to my current SF Electa Amator IIs for burn-in and right out of the box, they sounded fantastic. So much more music is passing through, while nothing in particular standing out. Very neutral, balanced and musical. When I get my new speakers, I'll listen for a couple of months before looking at power cords (and maybe one or two more speaker cables). I now have Shunyata Ztron Cobra. I want to hear Sablon, Argento, Silent Source...
