Anyone still using monster M2.2S cables (the really fat ones )

It sounds great to me, I keep thinking newer technology wires might be an improvement, but yet to demo any that do.   I run them with newer Odyssey Audio amplifiers and I have an oldie but never gonna sell pair of Spectral amplifiers that I switch out on occasion. All are heavy so not exactly easy to go listen to speaker wires on my system.  I have been playing around with different power cables , the shunyata power snakes seem to be the best to my ears.  I have their hydra 4 power conditioner and its amazing what that does, I missed 2 days of work after hooking it up just to go thru my music collection :)

Your 2.2 Monster cables are all you will ever need. Best bang for the buck. I don’t agree that there would be much improvement switching to better jumpers over the metal strips either. You can try it but I doubt it will sound better. It might even sound worse. Your speaker crossovers have circuit boards and what connects the components on the circuit board are similar to the metal strips designed to be there by the speaker designer. Good speaker wires get the signal from your amplifier to your speakers without degrading the sound or at least with the best compromises. That’s their only job. The Monster 2.2 accomplishes that as good as anything you will find. Once the signal arrives to the speaker terminals then the sound quality that you hear is up to the quality of your speakers. Speakers are designed to sound a certain way by the designer so I wouldn’t change a thing in them unless recommended by the speaker designer as an upgrade. Just like amplifiers you have to give your wires time to burn in with your system to sound their best. You should try the Monster M1000i interconnects to connect your other components. They work well with the Monster speaker wire you are using and are designed with the same technology and that will help you achieve synergy in your system.

I still run them to my Infinity Renaissance 90 speakers from a Krell 300cx amp.  They sound awesome.
