Cable selection for SET.


Hia Guys,
I've just ordered a Yamamoto a-08s to use with my Avantgarde duos and I'm wondering about matching speaker cables. My current cables are Kimber 8tc(5 metre pair). I was wondering if anyone had any advice to share on silver vs copper, length etc when using low powered SET.

Thanks for your help with this,
Myron.

Paul Speltz cables work great with SET. Best I have heard with SET. $10 per foot and hard to beat. Killer with my Wright 2a3 amp and Cain & Cain double horns.

thanks Guys,
I've noticed someone local here in NZ selling the speltz anti cables. I kind of dismissed them as gimick. From what you guys say though they seem like they might be a good match. I'll give them a try and compare them with the kimber.

I was thinking silver myself, NZ made slinkylinks are good value here and I've got a friend with speaker cables and inter-connects so I can try those too.

Gunbei, I think the advice to try the kimber first is a good idea. I can always upgrade at a later point. That way I can enjoy my upgrades one by one instead of making wholesale changes.

Thanks All.

Myron, if someone local is selling the Anticables I would give them a try. In my system the 12ft "Anti-Gimick" ($120) replaced a pair of 12ft Audience Au24 ($900 used). The Audience are excellent as well and have a slight edge in detail, however in my system I just could not justify the cost ot the Audience.

I am curious on how well the Yamamoto will work with the Unos! Drop me a line when you had a chance to listen to them.

Best wishes from across the pond,

Thanks Rene,
My local avantgarde dealer(amazingly there is one in Auckland) has used the original Yamamoto a-08 with his Duo's and said that he had very good results with them so I'm very hopefull that the new version a-08s will be a huge improvement over my arc vt100. I've allready sold my Arc to fund the yamamoto so at the moment I'm music-less(sounds of teeth gnashing). It'll be another couple of weeks before Shigieki-san (shameless name dropping there) has made my amp but once its here I'll be sure to post my findings on the the amp and the differences the cables introduce. Thanks for your time and thoughts.

Myron.
