Canare 4S11

I am taking delivery tomorrow of a 15 foot pair of Canare 4S11 cables which I will incorporate into my secondary system.  I do not expect much from them as I only paid $106.00 for the 15 foot pair with locking bananas on both ends from Ram Electronics.  I am putting these cables up against my Groneberg Quattro Reference cables that go for $25.00 a foot plus termination.  I am hoping for the best but am not expecting too much.  We shall see.  I will report on what I hear after the 200hr break in as that is what I am being told it takes to break them in.

I was always under the impression that the higher the price, the better the cable.  The fact that a $130.00 pair of speaker cables bested a $1500.00 pair should be a lesson for everyone regarding price VS performance. 


You don’t always get what you pay for, and that’s true for other components as well.

I just purchase 50' of the Furez cable to try out. May run double shotgun. Also have some Canare 4S11.

Why are multiple audiophiles reporting that they are using the inferior version of an already inexpensive cable? Why go with 4S11 instead of 4S11G? Is it availability? Not knowing?

The Canare 4S11G is a custom, special order product that has a 500M minimum order, (well, that's the way it used to be anyway).

Maybe a group buy?  :-)

Guys,

I may order some Furez SC to hear how they sound in relation to OCC.
