Benchmark AHB2 power amp impressions?

Keep us updated 

Just curious if anyone purchased the Benchmark brand Canare speaker cables with the "special" connector at one end (for the amplifier). The interconnects they sell look like they are the same Beldon cables you can buy thru Blue Jeans just customized for Benchmark. 

I bought the cables.  They are so reasonably priced I thought it was worth a try.

The Speakon connector is very easy to use; trying to fit my other cables' spades into those insulated posts with downward-pointing entrance slots is a pain.  The back of the amp is really tight on space.

I don't feel the Benchmark cables were an improvement... it was more of a wash. Guess I thought something was not quite there, and in the end I put back my Omega Mikros, even though it's less convenient.  But the fact that the difference was not hugely noticeable (in my system) points to the Benchmark cables as being a good value.

A wash is how it should be. If everything is working fine and your amp and speakers are well matched then the cables should make no discernable audible difference. 

I would guess a dead quiet amp like the Benchmark may highlight cable differences more. Just a guess
