    I love Adcom. You do have quit the system. I'm not familiar with your speakers. With the pre you have your bass would hit even harder than it does now. I had the GTP-500, and I think those pre's are just too edgy for silver speaker wires. Zingo is making some real nice Canare S4-11 cables that would probably sound much smoother in your particular app. I'm not trying to discourage you I just want to share what I have learned.
    Synergy can be a tough call. I will definitely will include you. I was a non believer myself with cables. If you win, and don't like them you can re Karma, sell, its up to you. Also keep in mind it takes a little while to burn in these cables. I just opened up another can of worms there:D
    Merry Christmas

    I am a hard core believer in cables DO make a difference, and cable burn-in..

    you should definitely hear a difference....but as Ben sid, it may take some time on your rig to determin if the synergy is there

    I switched out my Pre to an HK, and that combo definitely was a nice combo on the cheap.
