I'm finally ready to upgrade my interconnects. Over the years I have been slowly building my system. Currently my amps are VAC signature IQ 200 monoblocks and my preamp is a VAC Master with phono. My current interconnects are Tellurium Ultra Blacks. I'm looking for suggestions on gear appropriate interconnects with my equipment in mind. Thanks.

Just posting as a show of support. We are dabbling with changing out our interconnects from our DAC to pre-amp, and pre-amp to monos.

Just about to confirm the finalization of our USB—it is between the TARA Labs Master EVO and the Shunyata Research Omega.

But next up seems to be our Carda Clear Beyond XLRs, which worked great with past models that needed to be “smoothed out”. But now on the upgraded components, we suspect they contribute a flatness now.

Your VAC equipment must be fantastic. Tube all the way. We have only the tubes pre-amp Audio Research, with which we love and is perfect for our current reality. And Audio Research takes care of us in support like few others.

Anyway, if you have any updates on your interconnect quest, please share.

Also two members of WBF offer free audition of their cables.

Both are excellent while one is on the slightly vivid side and the other is on the relaxed side.

I had GREAT luck with Zenwave after trying many other brands. They were great at understanding my gear and sound I was looking for and offering a free trial to make sure it worked for me. I can't recommend them highly enough:

I put my thoughts about my listen on a video to share with others looking for suggestions:
