Audioquest WEL Signature

Thanks folkfreak & stringreen. 

Folkfreak, did you not want to try running 2 pairs?

Stringreen, yes, I too never presume the flagship model in a range is always best for a particular system. What are you using now?

@infection sorry if I was it clear. The demo cable was a shotgun biwire set (some $60k+ worth) and my speakers are single terminal so I had to connect together two sets of banana plugs into one set of terminals - not a pretty sight. Anyway just wanted to give the cable the benefit of the doubt if I had not gotten to hear the best of it, at least I know the one I tried was broken in 😏

I have AQ Wel sigs.  Pm me and we can talk.  I don't find them slow.  I love them.   I went from Oak to Wel and it is a beast.  I find that it gets out of the way and really pushes the system to the limit.  The ability to image better and with almost zero glare is just amazing.

I would buy the wel over and over again.

i also have wel power cords.

i have the new sigs.

i have back to backed the wels against oaks... I know the two like the back of my hand.

Mine is single biwire 8ft.

Audioquest will come with all new powercabels in a few months. I tested the Wel powercables as well. They are not that unique and great.

Audioquest makes decent powercables but not stunning ones. But this could soon be different. The person who developed them is an expert in electricity and he also created the new conditioners.

For example the Latest Purist Audio Limited Edition Luminist Revision are superior to the Well Signature powercables.

I own 2 sets of the lastest Wel Signature XLR interconnects and I love them.

I owned the Nordost Valhalla loudspeakercable for 12 years. When I lend the Redwood latest version from Audioquest I was surprised even how much better the timing was compared to the Valhalla 1.

I will do an update from Redwood to Wel later as well.

* There is one important note; The Wel Signature loudspeaker cable and also the interconnects have a long period to burn in.

I always burn in 24hours a day. The Wel Signature interconnect even changed after 21 days of 24hours a day continiously.

After 23 days it didn’t change anymore. It irritated me a lot. I hate new products to burn in. But the Wel Signature was the most irritating experience I ever had.

When it is not burned in completely you will get a different thought about the cable than it would have been burned in completely.
