I remember that cable. My brother in law has them. In fact he just upgraded to Kimber 8tc which he likes a lot better. It was less money than the 'Monster' cable and didn't corrode like the Monster cable did back in those days. It was a huge step up from lamp cord ;) Someone may need that length for a surround set up.
Vampire Wire circa 1983
I have just sold a pair of Vandersteen 1B speakers on Audiogon. When we bought the speakers in 1983 Salon 1 in Wisconsin Rapids (in his house) he also recommended Vampire Wire TM by Sound Connections Intl, Inc made in the USA (printed on the plastic cable housing). I talked to a gentleman at Vampire Wire and he said it sounds like an original wire they produced around that time. It is comprised of 30 or 40 tiny copper wires X 7 or 8 bundles woven into a rope and covered in the plastic. There are two of these stuck together. I have about 95' of this stuff. I just can't seem to find out if it is worth selling and for how much or should I just junk it? I could use any help as I have run out of ideas.
