Hey all.
I am finally getting away from using my computer as a source and am now in need of some advice.
I have a Sony CE-595 on the way. Will this come with some cheap cables to connect to an amp? Are they worth upgrading? I think I will use coaxial because I have read it is better or at least as good as optical. If I use optical do I need an amp that has that input or is the cable optical on one end and coax on the other?
I will be getting an AT-HA5000 amp (and the W5000) as soon as I can. So, I'm in need of a cable to connect my Sony 595 CDP to the amp. I will be using the W5000, W10LTD, and HF-1's with this setup. I'll be using the Monster Power HTS 3500 as my power conditioner.
I'm mainly a rock fan and love a full sound with plenty of bass and an in-your-face presentation (hence my headphone selection).
I'm very new to this and doubt my ears will discern a huge difference yet so I don't want to go crazy with the price here.
Let's say around 20 or 30 bucks for the cable (higher recommendations are welcome but not too much higher). Also, how many do I need for my setup?
Thanks all.
