Canare 4s11 how good are they ?


I have seen comments herr and there, but I would like to ask some owners their experience eith the Canare 4s11 cables.
My system consists of Audible Illusion 3A pre. Belles Virtuoso amp. Bluesound streamer Lynn Lp12 Vandersteen 2Sig CE and kimber 12t 8'
Most Vandersteen dealers recommend Audioquest biwire like the Rocket 44. Recently, I have read good things about the Canares, which are considered budget, entry level, etc. Has anyone tried them with Vandys. What other speaker cables are a good match for the Vandys 8' $300 top.

Thanks

Well after the heckling my audio (snob) buddy gave me this weekend "why dont you just go to home depot!..he,he,"...Hes just upset with himself probably...i moved the 4s12f back in and dam if there isnt something about there wire that my system really likes...Know they take some hours as well.I tried the silver route for a while and copper works for me/my music/system these days...Using vh audio v twist interconnects fwiw.

Shows what he knows. Everyone knows Lowe's has better cable. ;)

@secretguy ,

 

The Canare 4 S11 took around 400 hours to sound their absolute best.  Still thrilled 2 years later. 

I've had Canare 4S11 through BJC for more than, gosh, 8 years maybe? They've been in and out of the system depending on preference or just to change things up. On my system, they present a little thicker in the midrange, but have just as smooth highs as the Cardas 101 through AA - both non-fatiguing. Imaging may be a little bit better on Cardas. Like all things, system dependent.

When I needed shorter speaker cables, I got the Canare 4S11 cables for a temporary measure until I could sell my shotgunned acoustic zen reference and get something else. The bjc Canare set was around $80. They have been in my system now for a few years and no desire to change them..

I do believe that cables make a difference and I find a Canare to be neutral and better than those costing almost 20x the price.. IME
