cables for apogee duetta II

I just picked up a pair of apogee duetta IIs and am looking for a good set of bi-wire speaker cables to go with them. Everything I read seems to indicate that the apogee speakers are very cable sensitive. Anyone have any experience/recommendations? I like a dymanic yet tight sound and am using an emotiva preamp with an aragon 4004 mkII. Also any suggestions on interconnects would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hi,
A friend of mine had wonderful results 20 years ago using the then top of the range MIT 750 shotgun reference terminator cable and 330 interconnect cables. Amplifier was a Krell KSA300s , preamp a CAT mk2 and the CD was the Forsell.
Great sound!

Back in the day, Swiss-made Symo speaker cables were the cat's meow with Apogees and they weren't terribly expensive. They worked well with my Duetta II's but I don't recall comparing them to anything else! There is a pair on eBay right now but they seem a little pricey.

I have the Duetta Sigs. and used Siltech F-12 ribbons as well as VDH Revelation.

Straightwire Crescendo. They will give the Duettas bass bloom like no other wire and are very open and dynamic. Much better than Symo(which I owned also when I had Apogees Duetta Signatures).

I have a pair if you would like to try them.

I'm guessing the Alpha-Core Goertz MI2 or AG2 speaker cables would work nicely.
