ANTI-CABLES by Paul Speltz: Anyone Using Them?


I find myself intrigued the Speltz speaker-cable option, in part because the prices are like zero when compared to most speaker cables, but I wouldn't mind reading reactions beyond those he includes in his ads and on his web site.

I agree with most of the above posters. The Speltz cables may very well be the best buy in high end audio today.

The $100 XLR Anti-ics made my $3500 ics sound bloated in the bass and veiled in the highs in comparison. They exhibit little if any time smear. That's the mark of a very good cable.

However, I do not use the Speltz cables since my Audio Teknes are even better and are more musical. But I keep a complete set of the Speltz cables as a backup.

I would not be surprised if the Speltz cables could directly compete with most any ic or sc out there regardless of cost. For $60 a pair, you can't go wrong.

Drubin, I tried them both ways...one anti-cable (left)braided with the positive wire over top of the negative wire and the Right anti-cables, braided with the negative wire over top of the positive wire and I like it better with the negative wire over top of the positive wire when braiding them. When braiding them... every Inch and a half I make a braide......This does sound better like this.
Speltz now has an XLR IC!?

Now thats interesting and something I may have to try. Those using the ICs, how are they constructed? I'm assuming they use the same wire and minimalist construction as the speaker cables. Also, how would you describe the sound, similar to the speaker cables?
I have the Anti-Cables,unfortuanately not the Anti-Connects.Using Ridge Street Audio throughout now,but I can say from my observations on the Anti-Cables that they are stunning when considering price/performance ratio ... I will most certainly try the Anti-Connects in my system in the future.....
Well done Mr Speltz ....Now make us the same with solid silver,please !!
Thanks to everyone for the AntiCable comments ... the price is so reasonable, though PS admits that there isn't much to them, that ignoring them totally would probably be a mistake. Low price or not, I was reluctant to spend the dollars without some feedback, so your comments are very much appreciated.
