At $50, you are not going to get anything that is a significant improvement over stock cables.Many less expensive aftermarket cables use OFC at least which is a lot better than standard drawn copper. Look at BLE Design on eBay. Made in USA.
DIY PCs
I am thinking about upgrading my system power cables. First off, I should confess that I am an objectivist and a cable skeptic. That said, I see nothing wrong with a little bling in the cable department. I don't think any of the present PCs are stock, they are lab grade molded connector types suitable for lab test equipment. I will need four PCs: Pass INT-150, Oppo UDP-205, and 2 x ML Montis. I will most likely go DIY and would like to spend around $50 each. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for your replies.

@jtucker Take a look at this design- http://image99.net/blog/files/be8de0c383c5434907610d6b55049e69-75.html They may appear a little more complex that you would like, but once you wind the first coil it becomes much easier Most of their performance is derived from the Helix Geometry of the cable I made my first Helix cable using the wires from household Romex - to prove the concept - and it performed very well. I then graduated to higher performance wires and plugs Here's a thread that has comments from others that have made them https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/duelund-conversion-to-diy-helix-geometry-cabling Good Luck with you cables - Steve |
