Just musing to myself about some of the dearer kit I've replaced and been happy with its much cheaper replacement, and can't honestly say I've noticed any drop in sound quality.
I say kit, it's cabling actually, a few years ago my main ic was a Black Rhodium Oratorio, with a £600 RRP.
Currently in its place is a set of AOS favourites, the Klotz and MS Audio plugs, with, to my ears absolutely no degradation in sound.
The other cabling that has been replaced is the TQ Black speaker cable at around £50 a metre, and in its place?
Cable Talk 3.1 at less than £5 a metre, with again, no degradation in SQ!
The replacements came about from suggestions of AOS members, so thank you guys!
Anyone else done similar?
