I own VR-7 SE speakers and I really recommend that you use TRUE bi-wire cables with your speakers. I have used many top brands (shunyata, transparent, Tara Labs etc.) with my speakers. At the moment I use Ridge Street Audio Alethias bi-wire cables with great results.
Speaker cables for Von Schweikert VR5SE
I'm interested in learning what others have used for cabling these speakers. Since this speaker has two modules, each with its own speaker terminals separated by some 24", VSA strongly recommends running two separate pairs of cables - one to each module, though it's obviously possible to use one regular pair of cables in conjunction with a lengthy jumper pair to connect the modules or an internal biwire with extra long tails.
Right now, as I am breaking the speakers in, I'm using two pairs of my own basic 12g cable, self terminated with spades, and they sound pretty ok with my BAT VK500 but I'm going to get a neater solution in due course, even if it's only a pair of cheap Cobalts or Anti Cables. So, if you have these speakers and have found a particularly good match, let me know. Also, if you have run them with jumpers rather than two pairs, I'd be keen to learn if you thought this better or different.
