whats the very best sounding cables for realistic money

I’ve compared my shorter (.5 meter) silver SP/DIF cable to a 1 meter version and found the above claim of 1 meter digital cables not working as well to be baseless. This may be in issue in theory, but at least in my attempt at testing it by actually listening to music, it’s simply nonsense. I really tried to test this theory once I heard it existed, switched the cables between a streamer and a CD transport back and forth over days…zero, and I mean zero difference. Maybe my modest DAC has astounding re-clocking abilities or something, but still…

After using the cable services to demo many different speaker and ic cables it became apparent that Straightwire Maestro was the best performing speaker and ic in my system.  I think cables are very system specific.

hi there

is there realy a need for "special" cables?
When the amp must deliver over 200 W you can try it.
Remember:. at 5 Amp at 8 Ohm then you need just 1.5 mm2 (200W RMS)
Thats all you need.
No fancy cables are needed.

The SLIC Eclipse C interconnect (it stands for Super Low Interference Cable) is made in Britain and costs about £500 for a 1 metre RCA interconnect. I bought one a few weeks ago, and with this cable between my SACD player and preamp the sound is better than I’ve ever heard it previously.  There is much greater clarity, so that I can hear far more layers of detail such as instrumentation, harmony and counterpoint.  Instruments have greater character and colour, and the overall balance sounds accurate and natural.  It replaced a Kimber Select 1021 interconnect.  Of course it won’t suit every system or everybody’s taste but it’s excellent in mine.  Â

Sorry, for some reason I don't understand this is going to appear with various unwatnted caharcters added to it.
