Cable recommandations

DIY speaker cables could very well be the answer to your question, lord knows I’ve made at least 5 pairs of speaker cables, and some power cables and interconnects using various types of wire that sounded good, and each pair sounded a bit different. With that said you could audition a pair of PRIMA MKII OCC SPEAKER CABLES, that have been known to have a lot of bang for the buck and decide what sounds best for yourself. Hey, if you don’t like what you hear return them for a refund, no harm no foul.

I like Synergistic Research stuff (for cables especially), but there are several other brand names that I could heartily recommend as well. Shunyata makes a good cable. So does Van den Hul.

Personally, I’m looking forward to trying out a pair of SilverSmith Fedeliums, but since I have no direct experience with them, I can only mention that they’re getting good reviews.

And JC I wish this place had a "user mute/ignore" function!

Always the same guy, always the same useless "save the world from itself" crap.....

If you want to get as close to "no cable" as possible, consider Wire World. That has been their design goal since the early 90s.

First, don’t listen to Jason Bourne’s utter nonsense.  He’s incapable of hearing differences in any type of wire and therefore believes those of us who can are just fooling ourselves.

That said, what kind of improvements are you looking for, and what sound characteristics are most important to you?  This info would be critical to making a meaningful and useful recommendation. 

I will suggest a Solid Core PC Triple C Wire for the Speaker Cable.

I determine this suggestion worthwhile for Three Reasons.

1, I used Mapleshade Double Helix Clearview Cables for quite a few years and it was these that won favour over a selection of Copper Cables I was using in the  line up for the trials.

2, After a few years of owning the Mapleshades, I took them to a A/B demonstration when a friend was trying out Speaker Cables on their own system. On this day there were Cables in both Silver and Copper of which, one pair was very close to £2000, and a few others were valued at over £1000.

After the demonstrations it was the M'shades and a Brand True Silvers left as the contenders, these were a close run competition, it was only that the Silver Cable was immediately available that sealed the final decision. Another attendee, was very impressed with both Cables. He was off the same view point about the availability and also purchased the True Silver Cables. The M'shades on this sytem made a good show of themselves and won over admirers.

3, I no longer use the M'shades, these are replaced with PC Triple C Solid Core Speaker Cable. The PC Triple C Wire after a short period of usage outshone the M'shades in every area of delivery.
