Cable recommandations


Hello,

Im interested in a recommendation on speaker cables new or used. My budget is is 1500. Here is what I have:

Don Sachs preamp, Don Sachs amp, Tekton Double Impacts, Mytek Brooklyn DAC II+. Bluesound Node, DIY silver speaker cable, DIY interconnects and power cord. Shuguang black treasure tubes on amp and preamp, Brimar rectifier.

 

Thanks

I would not think twice about buying a $1200 pair of Silversmith Fideliums!

By far, the best speaker cables I have heard. I replaced $6K cables that are now relatively junk.

I'd like a pair of Auditorium 23's, someday..even if they don't somehow sound better than what I got, I just like the look and build of them. They no doubt will be a lifetime cable. 

I recently built a set of cables very similar to what GR Research sells with braided low oxygen copper cables and BFA type low mass connectors.  Total cost a couple hundred and I am very happy with the results.

In general, think of buying used… typically 1/2 original price. Used cables is a great place. The $3,000 new price range is a very good range to be in. I usually read reviews via Stereophile and the Absolute Sound to find the characteristics I am looking for.

 

There are also a lot of folks around here that love Silversmith Fideliums. I have not heard them yet.

Yes, definitely ignore JasonBourne.
