What do $2500 speaker cables sound like?


Sooo curious about this.  I now use cables costing about $200 and 20 yrs old.

dont want to throw out brands, but its well known.

what can someone expect?

They won’t sound like anything until you actually try them.  Hopefully you have access to a decent system.   Borrow some good cables.  You can find great cables for $1,000. 
And you definitely won’t learn anything from members of this forum who have already decided what they sound like, without trying.   
Sounds about the same as a $50 speaker cable.
The only difference between a $200 speaker cable and a $2500 speaker cable is the number of zeroes in the price!
Please decide which cause i am confused.
There is no reason for low capacitance for high efficiency speakers. Low capacitance only matters for speaker cables if your amp has stability issues and possibly high damping factor. Most low capacitance cables are high inductance and can roll off highs.
Uh, I would guess they SHOULD "sound" like nothing. Otherwise, you paid 2500 for something to add "sound" to your system?

Exactly what "sound" were you looking to "add?"

My customers were always trying to NOT "add" to the sound of their systems, but hey, that was in the 1970’s, so what do I know?

Here’s a crazy suggestion: Have your dealer set up a pair of Magneplaner speakers IN YOUR ROOM and see what you "hear." My guess is that, depending upon what other "sounds" you have added to your system, you will hear the music, period.

Imagine that.

Cheers!
