Very well said, Jim. Maybe you should contact Grover Huffman regarding his latest speaker cables. I have his Empress ICs and love them; neutral, dynamic, with a smooth top-end.

What speaker cables can complete with Audience 24e or 24e SE for less $$
Looking to replace my Harmonic Technology Pro 11 + speaker cables whose girth and size are too awkward for my current living space.
Therefore, I have considered Audience 24e or the 24e SE speaker cable, but even the used prices for 6 ft pair with banana plugs is over $1100 on Used Cables.com and more on AG
Therefore, I need some recommendations for less bulky speaker cable that offer the same quality of sound of the Audience cable, or close to it for less money. Obviously, I will only buy used to expand my dollar range
Speakers are Golden Ear Technology model 7's:
Pre-amp: CJ PV-14L SE;
Amp: BAT VK 200 ( 100RMS)
Thank you, SJ

Whatever you buy/try, get someone, or better some people, with a good ear(s) and have the courage to do a double blind comparison, especially if you try the "WE 10ga wire" option. I did something like that and the surprising consensus was Auvio 12 g premium speaker cable that I picked up on sale at Radioshack for about $1/ft. This stuff is 50% POCC and 50% silver coated POCC. Unfortunately, I don't think you can get this exact brand any longer.
