What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly?

Would seem there’s more than one company making cables…Lol. Which leads one to believe it’s a complete waste of time as there all the newest and best ever. Boring waste of time thread again.

With the quality of gear you have, you're definitely going to benefit from high quality cables.  Blue Jeans are a very good value but not anything you'd want to to match up with the extremely high quality amp and preamp you have.

Try to get a bunch of cables from different companies on approval and compare them.  It's all about synergy.  They'll all sound different but only you can judge "best."

I ended up with silver cables from Gryphon, but they don't sell direct.  Audioquest has great cables IMO but their direct price is the same as the dealer price.

I would definitely include Silversmith in the mix based on the comments here over the last couple of years coming from guys with very expensive amps.

Requisite Audio

I got a silver Digital coax SFDIF from them and I was pleasantly surprised. 

Very reasonably priced. 

Found these guys. Audio Sensibility.

Zenwavesudio too

Both direct and easy to deal with

And there’s Morrow Audio too. 

Check out Audiomica cables, I came from Purist and Cardas Beyond and now a full loom of Audiomica and couldn't be happier. I didn't pay retail bought from importer at good discount. Do some research on Audiomica lots of reviews but not much talk.
