Morrow Audio Speaker Cables


Came across this company and I’m curious if anyone has experience or comments with their speaker cables from a quality vs cost standpoint.  Thanks for your thoughts.

The SP3 speaker cables came in the other day. Didn't notice an immediate change/improvement, but still burning them in. The MA3 interconnects came in today, and I DID notice an immediate improvement with them. They're not even broken in yet, they're brand new! Not sure if that speaks to the quality of the cables I upgraded from (SKW speaker cables, but generic XLR interconnects), the fact that interconnect cable quality has more of an effect on the overall sound signature, or perhaps some combination of both. Extremely satisfied now with choosing Morrow cables. In fact, so much so, that I just put in an order using my thank you coupon for a pair of single-ended interconnects to replace the SKW cables connecting my subwoofer to my preamp.

I started at level 2 and was so impressed I immediately upgraded to the level 5 for the speaker cables and interconnects. I would never ever, ever have imagined the immense change those cables made in my system... huge soundstage, detail, bass response, everything. Nothing short of stunning. I never poo-pooed the importance of cables, but I thought their contribution was somewhat minor. I thought I was happy with Canare's $250 cables. I thought that'd be enough. The level 5's create a 300% improvement in the sound. I know this must sound like hyperbole, but it's not. I mean, come on, cables??? But it's true. My components include Pass Labs 250.8 and B&W 803 D3 speakers. I use the XLR connectors on the MA5 and the spades on the SP5 because the Morrow banana plugs are flimsy. Obviously, mileage may vary. Also, I suspect it's worth spending the money on their 10-day burn-in; the cables work perfectly from the start (and I don't have the patience to sit through the 'improvement' process). Morrow gives an explanation of why their cables work so well and are award-winning. Frankly, who cares? All that matters is how they sound and they are amazing. They have a 60-day return policy, so you're only out the $15 shipping cost. It's worth trying the cables. Again, I am not a cable expert. I have not compared these cables to all the other higher-end cables out there. But I can testify to these cables.

@soix, what a strange coincidence you asked this question today!  I just got my SP-6 cables in the mail today. Look great but I won’t get to hook them up and have a serious listen until Friday PM.  I’ll post my first impressions later. 

Well I got to sit down and have a critical listening session with the new SP-6 speaker cables installed tonight.  To be honest with you I had limited expectations of a significant sound quality difference with any speaker cables, however I was proven totally wrong.  The difference was noticeable right off the bat with much deeper and cleaner bass response.  The mids and high range were also clean and crisp but not the dramatic change observed in the low frequencies.  Soundstage was about the same but, full disclosure, I did change the orientation of the speakers and moved them in about 1 foot together (I had a shorter lenght with the Morrow cables).  My wife even noticed a difference!  I’m very pleased with these Morrow cables so far.
