Nutty.....I have been looking for speaker cables that could really do justice with my system......my headphones always sounded way better. I had Cardas, Audioquest, WmLowe Signature, Wireworld, etc....all top of the line editions. For the halibut, I was recommended Clear Day Cables. When I talked to Paul at Clear Day, he sent me an audition pair without charge...."just give it a listen" he told me. The instant I heard them, it was a deal. I got a bi-wire pair of his double shotgun and am really happy with the openness, the solid bass, the huge dynamics...all the right stuff. Call Paul - no pressure- it just might be the cables you're looking for. I'm just a happy customer...no ties at all to Clear Day.
