Anticables

Anti-cables pass the signal. They are fairly dynamic and transparent. Their sound, however, is crude and unrefined.

I have so many funny stories about the topic in this thread but look at it this way. We are all sick, demented passionate fools in search of that 1/10th of a difference that can be made in sound quality or the perception of sound quality (Real or not) gained by changing everything around and experimenting constantly. Who here doesn’t feel excited when something new shows up in that lovely new box or get wide eyed when you read an article on your iPad at 2 am in the dark while listening to Tidal Masters and noticing that it’s literally the 10th time that you played the same track in a row because you hear something new in the background that wasn’t there before. Haters be damned if you can’t justify the cost of what you can’t comprehend because it’s new or unproven, this is a hobby and pioneers make mistakes but when you find new cool stuff that works it makes up for the losers in the mix and that’s what AG is for. LOL

Anti's are good cable...made well, perform above their price point.   They are very thin and may look fragile, but they are not.

Love the sound using Anticables speaker cables and ICs. Clean, clear and open. Slightly, very slightly tipped up from neutral in my treated, dedicated room, and in my system. Bi-wired from a Vincent SP-331 to Vandersteen 2Cs. They are more robust than they appear, though not as robust as one might hope for (fracture of the solder joint at the amp end of the bi-wired speaker cable due to being a little too forceful).  Easily remedied. Solid core. I like how they sound, I like the company's policies, Paul Speltz is a great guy to work with. Happy camper.

Anticables Level 5 speaker wire (copper spades) combined with Anticables Level 6.2 Absolute Signature RCA/RCA analog interconnects are the best performing cables I've ever heard anywhere, and the only ones that match what I had back in the early 1990s when the Lindsay-Geyer interconnects were available. In fact, the low-level resolution and detail surpasses what I got from the Lindsay-Geyer set-up. My stereo system consists of Acer Aspire E5-576G-5762 running Foobar 2000 software, JSAUX Printer Cable, Pro-Ject Pre Box S2 DAC, Anticables Absolute Signature Level 6.2 analog interconnects, PS Audio Stellar M700 monoblocks, Anticables Signature Level 5 speaker wire (spades), KEF LS50 speakers, Fitueyes 4-tier Media Stand Audio/Video Component Cabinets with Glass Shelves, VTI RF Series Heavy Duty Speaker Stands in Black, and Pangea Audio AC-14 Powercords for amplifiers. Also all cable connections are made using Stabilant 22 contact enhancer. I will pit my system against any other 2-channel system with respect to all parameters except low bass extension and highest db level output. Just a word of warning, 500 hours or more of burn-in will be necessary before these cables sound their best. I suggest using Irrational But Efficacious CD to play continuously when not listening to help with burn-in.
