Acoustic Zen speaker Cables ..In general

Hi, Darrylhifi. I'm using a single run of AZ satori on the newforms. I'm also using AZ natrix between amp and pre,all solid state. I don't know about tubes but IMSystem the AZ has a fullness of notes, roundness or rightness that gives me synergy. Another good thing is satori is easy to resell if it didn't float your boat. Is it the very best? No, but what is, for you or for me? It's all matching. I believe, the satori is easy to match unlike the red dawn nordost I had[too ultra detailed in my setup, zingy,I believe red dawn would be good on tubes but it is very system dependent. Good luck and good listening, Lloyd

Bluenose described it very well. I am using Hologram Bi-Wired for speaker cables and I found it to work very well tube amps. It is very natural sounding in my system, doesnt sound restricted like some of the cables that i've tried in the past. Music is evenly distributed through out the whole spectrum and the soundstage and imaging is very good and exaggerated. It wont be the best cables out there but you will probably spend a lot more money to get better results. The AZ cables are the best bang for the bucks, IMHO.

I'm using the Satori shotgun bi-wire and would classify them as decidedly neutral, but they seem to pass more of the musical signal than other cables I've heard--that's the best way I can describe it. If you're looking to use speaker cables to tune your system look elsewhere. They are a very low capacitance design and will work well with virtually any type of electronics. Obviously you'll have to try them in your system to see how they work for you, but I'd consider them one of the best bargains in cables and you should definitely try'em. Also, unless you've got 3-way speakers or more I'd suggest using a single run with jumpers--it'll work better and save you some cash. Best of luck.

Neutral with a touch on the warm side for the satori's. You really have to spend big bucks (spm) to better it. The above posts are right on the money in their descriptions.

Anyone out there compare the hologram to the satori ?
