Best speaker cables for under 500$ (Euros)


Hello guys,

I was never into expensive cables as I’ve always found the money were better spent into the electronics themselves or room treatment. However, I would like your recommendations on the best available speaker cables for that budget to connect my Pass Labs X250.5 to the Usher Be-10 speakers.

The gear in question is really top notch, and would definitely benefit from upgraded speaker cables.  I don't want to open a can of worms here, but every single cable in that system could be upgraded with good gains made.  When I did this, I immediately heard a better focus, clear imaging that I didn't know I was missing.

I hesitate to recommend anything specifically, because I don't know what the general sound signature is of either the amp or Usher speakers in question.  I've got Audioquest Rocket 44, they are the most expensive speaker cable I've ever owned.  Wireworld also makes some pretty effective speaker cables, I've got their Oasis 7 cables.

I would suggest that the OP needs at least a cable that is 12 gauge or larger for those Ushers, which go down quite low.  Also, the benefits of a solid conductor design over stranded conductors really surprised me.  Something employing copper that is more than just oxygen free, or even silver, will improve the sound.

Food for thought...


Canare 4S11 cable.  Check out Ram Electronics. Biggest bang for the buck. 
I just got a set of 4S11 from Ram and am very pleased. Great sounding plus fit and finish are outstanding.
I guess they are all broken in now?  They continue to amaze me on a daily basis as I use them in both of my systems.  I feel it is one of the greatest bargains in cables today.
