Can you advise please on cables from a DAC to the Solo UL? Cusat50 or Graham's other cables? And why one is better than another?
Also I know the length is buy what you need but what difference (apart from it will reach!) does getting a longer interconnect make, say 1m or 2m? Thanks

I see on the main site there are two Phono Interconnect Cables listed Cusat50 & Agsat90.
Since you can't click on the Agsat90, is the Cusat50 an updated cable?

My set up is really low to the ground, so I also wanted to know if having the cables run along the ground would that hurt the sound in anyway?

I can hear a difference between my 2 m and 0.6 metre cusats. It's not at all big but I'm certain it's there. The longer cable just sounds ever so slightly less vigourous. Still a great, full bodied, clean and natural sounding cable with loads of vigour in it but just very slightly less so than its 0.6 metre cousin. My tip is to get the shortest length you require and I guess that pretty much goes for any type of audio cable

I'm going to have to put my audio rack (something like an Quadraspire) on a tiled floor; so should I buy 4 Sorbothane pads to put under the legs, or should the feet that comes with these should suffice?

Hi Gary,
your post is a little off topic, and this reply is somewhat late!

Presumably your tiles are on top of a concrete floor?  Are you near a busy road or other source of structural vibration?

The Quadrapsire racks seem a little on the light side to me but I have seen favourable reviews for them.  Essentially your rack should be providing a solid vibration free base for your equipment to stand on, especially if you are using a turntable or CD player. 

You need to ensure that any metal in your rack is not able to transfer vibrational or RF energy into your system.  Graham (Slee) has posted elsewhere on the forum about these matters, so have a look around.

Although late I hope this is of some help to you.

Regards
Les
