    As for sound I want a fairly neutra but not brighter, if anything a touch warmer, my system is very neutral I would say which is fine with well recorded music. I may try a few cables, see if I can tell the difference, I have some Tandy Gold at the moment. The Sommer cable was a bit dissapointing in this test. The spotfire sounds good but is much more money.
    Hi Ray,
    I would try a selection of unbalanced cables, but try to get one that uses 100% foil shielding, I think it helps to stop RFI and could cut down a bit of harshness.
    I know that Van Damme do a single ended cable but I don't know how it would sound in your system because I have only been using balanced for the last 15 years !!!!

    Ok thanks. When I get my DAC I may well get a load of cables to try out.

    Is the Spotfire still available?
