Belden wire from Blue Jeans Cable?


Has anyone had experience with Belden wire from Blue Jeans Cable? How does it compare with other affordable speaker cable? Is it better than Acoustic Research, Monster etc.? How would you describe it's sonic characteristics if any? Thanks,
Bill

I totally agree with the posters above. These cables have no sonic signature.If you don't like the sound..it's more than likely a component in the chain. Cables make a difference but this stuff can get a little over board. The LC-1s,Belden 1505F and Belden 1694A the digital cables are great.
Thanks for your responses. I've never been a big believer in expensive cables. I presently am using basic Monster 14 gage. Recently tried 12 gage Home Depot extention cord and it softened (dulled) everything considerabley. So now I know they can make a difference. Would like to upgrade, but don't want to spend a fortune. Do you think the Belden would be an improvement over the Monster? Or would it be pretty much the same. Any other suggestions for reasonably priced cable would be welcomed as well. Thanks,

Try some magnet wire..it's solid core copper. Plenty of places on the net just google it. I'm not a fan of stranded wire used as speaker wire. Or you could make your own solid core silver speaker wires. Silver foil is another option. CAT5 telephone cables make for some good wires too.
A double run of Kimber 4 VS is very good if your spks. are bi-wireable. Another most excellent/affordable spk. cable is Linn K400. Musical. Goodwin's Audio can make a pr. for a very reasonable price. Highly recommnded.
Since I didn't have time last night to post them, here's a few sites to buy or build your own cables Make your own audio cables,DIY Cat5 Speaker Cables. Here's another place to buy DIY components Diy HiFi Supply. You could use cotton tubing instead of teflon if you so choose. Once you make your own the chances are you'll own them for good with no urge to spend more.

Good listening
