what is a good time and number to call you
i want a pair connecting my wadia i170 to the grace m902b

i have tried the stock wadia cable, a pair of audioquest vdm-xr and some fancy audio research ones.
frankly, the wadia was darn good and yet the audioquest made a noticeable difference. the darkness of the noise floor was deeper, richer, and immersive. scary what cables could do.

i like to invest in another pair to see if the wadia+grace combo can extend further. or the limits have already been attained.
