Recommended cables for NHT 2.9


I'm looking for smooth, mellow speaker cables ($200 and under - used) that would work well with the NHT 2.9. I've read that the MIT Terminator is good (and I may get the T2 biwire), but I'd like more opinions. Presently I'm using cheap, old $1.75-ft Monster Cable in a bi-wire configuration from a Counterpoint SA-220. The cables are 4ft long on either side. Thanks for your help ;-)

I promise you you would NOT be able to tell the difference with the Tara Labs cable and the pure copper wire I recommended.I also speak from experience.I was given a pair of the world's best speaker wire from a 10,000 dollar audio research system and I cannot tell the difference.It would take a highly trained ear to tell ANY difference. 89vett
89vett either has a hearing deficit or a bad system. The MIT2 is a great buy, but don't take my word for-go try some, or any others. Kimber makes good products as well, but I've never used their cheaper stuff. It's probably good. Good luck...
Shayner, If you call Audio Research bad equipment,then I guess I do have a bad system.This cable lunacy has been overblown from day 1.There have been several test's and double blind studies that prove that most people CANNOT tell a difference is wire's.Those are the fact's. 89vett
I have done a/b comparisons using my cheap Esoteric Audio solid core copper wire speaker cables and expensive nordost red. The difference was very obvious using my high quality components, and barely perceptible using my midgrade components. I have also done a/b comparisons of interconnects of similar cost, and could perceive noticeable qualitative differences. The conclusion I came to is that cables are well worth their cost, and that system matching is a truth. Another thing I found important was to put my components on a solid footing rack, and to separate the power cables on one side, and the audio cables on the other. The audio cables are spaced apart.
