trying to upgrade step by step my stereo system, after not dealing with it for awhile.
right now have 3 kinds of speaker cables.
old audio quest , and an old monster cables.
a bit newer Kimber cable that are too short for my current configuration.

and one pair of Audioquest Ruby 2.
looking to upgrade for moderate price.

Analysis Plus is the only manufacturer of cables that I use for Speaker, Interconnect and Power Cables.  I find them clean and neutral sounding, with no "house" sound.

 I use Audio Envy cables,and I use Analysis Plus cables. I’m very pleased with both. My only real recommendation,would be to buy USED.

I use Signal Cable and have some Raven Audio cables as well as Blue Jeans Canare 4S11 cables.

 

Love the Signal Cable IC, PC and Speaker cables.

It's inevitable that everyone will post about their favorite cables. I'm no different. I'm partial to Nordost products. All power cords, interconnects and speaker cables in my system are Nordost. 

I've been an audio hobbyist since the early '80s. I was also in audio retail for years. I've owned cables by many different manufacturers. I won't list them now because I don't wish to disparage anyone. What doesn't work for me might be just fine for someone else.

In My Experience, Nordost cables pass more information and editorialize less than other cables. I urge you to seek them out if possible. Also, I believe in using cables of the same manufacturer throughout the system.

Honorable mention to Analysis Plus and Shunyata cables.

Good luck!
