Beginner/ Starter cables

Greetings, I second Riffer's recommendation of DH Labs. If you want to spend a little more their Air Matrix line is pretty much impossible to beat for the money. IMHO Happy Listening

Audioparts Inc. by Stu Wein makes fine products which offer great value, in my opinion. The Mas Hybrid speaker cables have been great in my system, and I posted a short review a while back.

The Purist Audio Musaeus are by far the best for the money in my opinion.

I suggest you stick with clean, tight connections, as short runs as possible, and with the likes of kimber, signal cable, blue jeans, etc. Once the rest of your system, including the all important (and often overlooked) room acoustics, are up to your satisfaction you can spend to your heart's content on expensive R,L, and good old C.

Make sure you practice due diligence w.r.t. your room acoustics, otherwise you may neglect the true potential of your hardware.

This was something I have put off for too long, and now I hear how misguided I was to assume the room was ok, while changing hardware more frequently than a roomful of environmental advocates utter the phrase "global warming".

Peace
