Interconnects for integrated amp?
Posted: October 30, 2007 - 3:59pm

I own a NAD 320BEE Integrated Amplifier. I wish to upgrade the interconnect cables (not sure if this is the correct term). I'm not referring to the cables between the amp and the CD player; rather I am referring to the little 6-inch cable that runs between (I assume) the pre-amp and the amp that is built into the same unit.

Question:

(1) Recommendations in the $100 range?
(2) Are these the same "interconnect" cables that run between my intergrated amp and CD player?

My current cables (interconnects between amp-cd as well as speaker cables) are from Audio Art (IC-3) -- great cables.

Audioquest makes some good preamp/amp jumpers for $25 each.

What are you expecting to gain from this purchase? Are you unhappy with the sound you have right now?

Well, my hopes of upgrading my NAD 320BEE to something better (perhaps the C372 or even an integrated tube) is no longer a real option ($$ issues). I have a pair of TaraLabs jumper cables connecting the preamp to the amp section of the 320BEE. I was hoping to upgrade those in the hope of squeezing any more clarity, soundstage, etc. out of my current system with minimal cost.
