elizabeth My speakers cost $14.850. My speaker cables (Kimber 8TC) cost $125, plus the cost of the WBT ends, (which are practically forever reuseable) Like Power cords, on this front I am cheap. I have zero whine about expensive anything.
"A fool and his money are soon parted"......Some people have more money than (cents) sense, BTW, I'm not rich, but if i were, i still wouldn't give up my (Cardas) unless i heard a really appreciative difference !!!
I imagine you would have to compare some other high end cable with Cardas in your system to determine if you might be overlooking some other cable. It’s kind of a catch 22. My old boss at NASA told me never get behind anyone 100%.
You could look at 10k cables as all being relative. I use $1200 cables on 4k speakers so roughly 30% of the cost of the speakers. If you step that up it would only equate to a set of 34k speakers approx. Now granted that is a little out of the average audiophile pocket but to some it is a price they would pay for their speakers so why not 10k for their cables? It is then up to their ears if it was worth it or not.
