Speaker Cable Recomendations


I’m looking for some advice on speaker cables under $2000 (8' length) also and the interconnects under $500 (1M length).

Thank you in advance.

what nature of sound are you looking for?

+1 @jjss49 This is critical info to have to make a targeted recommendation.  

Aside from PCs, I have found the cabling that makes the most difference in the system is the source interconnect. I just confirmed with my own experimentation. The theory is that anything lost from the source can't be gained further in the system. I would apply my budget in the reverse!

Whatever you choose I would get the same brand all around. Try Kimber, DH Labs or Pangea as potential candidates. I would begin the process by auditioniong power cords first to identify the brand you like, then get wires all around from that same brand. Leave the notion that expensive is better at the door. It is about matching the cable to your personal preferences.

Are you making cables or buying off the shelf? I had never made a cable up to 2 years ago, and wont look back now. You can make a €300-€500 RCA cable that will thrash an €800-€1,500 off the shelf with minimum soldering skills.

Speaker cable wise, anything that has UP-OCC copper written on it and a heavy gauge.
