The cable is a scam.
price of WireWord ECLIPSE III DISCRETE BIWIRE
I can purchase a pair of sedond hand WireWord ECLIPSE III DISCRETE BIWIRE, 4 M lenght, just what I need. Has anybody an idea of the price of these cables new? I use now MONSTER CABLE Z2B BIWIRE. I assume it will be a big improvement. Any advice on this cable also welcome. my amp: Classé CA2200 + B & W 803.

I guess my first question would be: Why do you assume it would be a big improvement? You like what you like. An improvement? Probably. A "Big" improvement......maybe. My second question is: They don’t make that version of those cables anymore. I believe WireWorld’s Eclipse is up to version 8. They certainly weren’t "cheap" when they were new, that’s for sure. If I had to guess, I would probably say they were around $1500-ish new. Somewhere in that ballpark, I'd wager. I think they also came in a couple of different "flavors" (silver/copper, etc....) https://www.wireworldcable.com/speaker-cables.html#speakertop IME (at least with my Classe CA-2200/ speaker setup), any silver cable I’ve tried makes my system sound VERY bright. I stick with all copper cables. YMMV, depending on what you like and what those cables are actually made of. If you’re purchasing from a store, see what the return policy is. You might eat some $$$ on a restocking fee, but if you hate them, at least you’re not out the whole amount. |
