Speaker cable recommendations in my budget
I really hate to open this can of worms. I know people tend to be very passionate about their cables and how heretical someone else’s choice is. But, here goes anyway.
if it matters, I have a Denon AVR4806 & JM Labs speakers. Both are about 7 or 8 yrs old. I need 8’-10’. I really only want to spend less than $150 but, I’d go to $200 if there some phenomenal cable that would rock my world.
On the site & in that range are: AntiCabled, Schmitt, PS Audio, Audio Quest, NBS Serpent, Harmonic Tech & Audio Quest Serpent.
Do any of you see the glaring top 2 or 3 I should pick from? There’s now real audio shop around me that sells this stuff.
PLEASE: Don’t recommend dumping my receiver or speakers & no fights.

Used an option? Lots of great deals ALL over. I've see 1000.00 cables go 1/10 their original price. Second why change after 7-8 years. Just got the bug? I was just wondering, WHY? Respectfully |

@oldhvmec, Yes, used cables allow you to buy a very good cable for at least half of 'new'. Cables by Transparent can go for pennies on the dollar if they are older iterations. If you are looking for cables, know that many are system dependent, so doing a lot of homework will be to your advantage. I would PM John Rutan (audioconnection) for some unvarnished information.
