to me, that's my order

1 - power cable(specially the one/two attach to the amp)
2 - rca
3 - headphone cable(unless is a sennheier

)

right now i don't have nothing fancy so far so please educate me

Find a good RCA cable first that is in line with the components it's attached to in terms of price/performance (for example don't put a $700 cable on $200 worth of gear).

maybe they are all about the same.

What do you mean with "go first"?
Which you let go (disconnect) first? Or something else...

says it all...........

 

[Ragonix]

Who are the people paying $2000 for a power cable? Is it only audiophiles?

 

[pompon]

I will go on headphone's cable first!

On HD650 it's quite amazing.

Powercords have done a good improvement for me but no one trust that!

 

[AudioCats]

for me it was IC, then headphone cable, now it will be the power cord......

 

[Happy Camper]

My experience has been

ICs first

Power cord second

Taking my time to re-cable my hps. I'll re-cable when needed and I'd say the RS-1s will be first.

 

[bigshot]

Music before any of them.

see ya

Thanks for that.

The ICs, as they carry the weakest signal and are thus more sensitive to interference. If you were talking about a speaker setup with very long runs, the speaker cable could become the higher priority.

"Audiophile" power cables, on the other hand, are a total scam.

1. ICs
2. headphone cable
3. power cord

i think all matter, but now that i think about it, i definitely have spent the most on ICs first, then HP cables, and then power cords - so maybe the above order is correct.
