Raven Audio SC

I received my pair of these speaker cables today and they’re a lot better than I expected. Very neutral and lots of detail, good decay, good bass detail (more mid-bass/bass detail than my AE NV-SP9s tbh), a little blooming but they’ve only been running for a few hours. 

Out of curiosity, has anyone else tried these and been disappointed or liked another brand’s sc better that they’d recommend? Let’s say nothing past $1500.

Just saw your post and was curious if you are still happy with your Soniquil cables?  I currently have Audioquest speaker cables, and had been considering AE cables. I have a Raven amp I love. If their cables offer as much bang for the buck as their amps do, I'm interested!

It’s very good bang for the buck. I’ve found that the synergy with their power cable really offers great separation and fills in the mid range since the bass is more dominant with just the SC alone.

I'm using the Soniquil power cord with my Blackhawk amp and agree that the synergy is quite good. I also have Audio Envy Mega 3 power cord in the other system with Luxman 590AXII, the performance of AE Mega 3 is off the charts.

I replaced the stock power cord on a Rogue Sphinx with the Soniquil cord that came with my Blackhawk, and did hear an improvement.  I don't feel my Audioquest Rocket 11 speaker cables are deficient, just wondering how much audible improvement I might get for not much more money with other cables. Several under consideration are Sonquil, Audio Envy, and Transparent Audio.  What speaker cables are you using arafiq?

I bought these cables on the recommendation of a friend and love them. Using interconnects, XLR, speaker and power throughout my system that is all Moon by Simaudio Components. 
Next is to re wire the other 4 systems in the house. Better jump on that sale eh.
