I have the B&W 802's with the BR20 and the sound is sublime.Running with the Michi M8 mono blocks which are pretty substantial.There is plenty of weight there in my setup and streaming through MM,and hi res files from disc. Sound from either is well weighted, even at low volumes.

Thank you so much for your post. It reminded me that I have a pair of Mogami cables. I was using Furutech cables between my preamp and power amp. I have now replaced them with the Mogami cables (2543) and they sound far better.

I will be looking into Mogami for interconnects. I currently use the base model Audioquest between my external DAC and preamp. I may try out the Mogami Platinum. I was also considering the Mogami 2543 for this position however it appears that the Platinum is their flagship cable. I should probably try them both!

amdan, you should absolutely try the Mogami Platinum Signature between your pre and power amp, as well as from the DAC analog out to preamp in (is this a balanced connection?). Just keep in mind these are sold as singles. And terminated with XLRs, so only usable as such. Unless you choose to re-terminate yourself.

From memory, I played audio through the Platinum Signatures for somewhere around 60 hours, at which point they were largely "settled in". You will hear the potential after the first hour, though.

Hi Brian. I have ordered the Mogami Gold. I looked at the Mogami website and they describe the Gold as a warmer cable. I might also get the Platinum to try out someday. Did you compare the Platinum to the Gold?
BTW, all my equipment have XLR outputs however the BR-20 only has two inputs whilst I have 3 external components. One of them will have to miss out.
