Loren,

From my experience with interconnect cables I have found the best solution to be borrow and try out what you can. Let's take Jay's comments on the Straightwire Encore - I also have one of them and like it a lot, however the Encore on one component will not sound the same with another. Ditto for Craig's recommendation of trying Kimber - another excellent brand. Let me add AudioQuest to that list as I have been very pleased with the Ruby - so pleased that I use it as my preamp/power amp cable.

Speaker cables are much the same - so again do what you can to try out cable first, or buy from a seller who will take it back if it does not work well for you.

Monster is a good starting point, but there is definitely better out there as you head up the market.

: I am planning to upgrade my current Monster Cable setup with something more on the high end, like Nordost, Or Kimber.
: I am using B&W Matrix 805's, and a Yamaha dsp a1 integrated amp, and a Sony 7700 dvd/cd player. Based on this setup, can anyone make some recomendations as to which speaker and interconnet cables are going to make a difference. Thanks for your help!
