What speaker cable made a major difference in the sound quality of your speakers??


I am curious what speaker cables made a big "jaw dropping difference" in the sound quality of your current speakers.  What most impressed you about the difference;  that is, overall musicality, tighter, deeper bass, midrange clarity and soundstage depth, etc.etc. 

Keep the price of the speaker cables chosen or auditioned at  between $800- $1000 or  from  $1000-$1500. Was the cable bought new or used??

  Thank you,   SJ

For a period of a couple years I went through high priced Tara labs, MIT, Kimber, Cardas and finally top of the line Marigo, also use for interconnects.  I also played around with cheap cable just to see if I could here a difference and although I believe you can probably find a cheap cable that sounds awesome  but I gave up after a couple cheap cable attempts.

The Marigo warmed up the sound better than any other cable with my system.   Kimber were too tinny and MIT too flat.

I don't think many people know about Marigo but for my system the best, I believe the components play a large part in how a cable will sound and my NHT 3.3s a little bright on the high end may be the reason Marigo work best for me.  Also was using a Plinius SA-250 and Sonic Frontiers pre-amp when i settled on Marigo

To hiici,  I have gone that cheap speaker cable route. Actually I bought a pair of speaker cables on e-bay for $65.00 for a 10 ft pair about 3 years ago. i was amazed how well they were made. I liked them at first but after about 50 hours, they began to sound harsh and very bright. I traded them in with a Rega table to The Music Room for something, I can't remember


******  HOWEVER, Has anyone listened to or own a pair of Tellurium Q Black speaker cable. I have seen them mentioned on Audiogon a few times. They sell online for $495.00 for a 3 meter pair.  There are a few reviews around: Hi-Fi Pig and Audio Chews.  Not exactly main stream journals, but each review honestly claimed the Tellurium may enhanced what you already hearing, nothing spectacular, but both claimed excellent musicality and detail without edge.. Any feedback would be great.  Cheers to all. S.J. 


@sunnyjim ,
For that much money, I suggest that you try the Clear Day Double Shotguns. I think you will be surprised by the way they make music.
I went from Nordost Super Flatlines to Analysis Plus Oval 9's. Not subtle.
