Did anyone hear the Cardas "Clear Beyond"...

Well bi-wire should cost a little more right Garebear? :-)

Ya know Art...that's good point. Cardas did not mention if that was a true '' shot gun'' bi-wire of two runs of this cable which in some respect would make some sense based on the price I was told ....or if that was an internal bi-wire cost in which yes...that is expensive. I will find out

Found out that it's $8+ a pair(single-wire assume).

It's $8k+ for single-wire(I assume).

basic pricing is as follows, based on my notes: Speaker Cable is about $4500 for an 8' pair of "Clear" and double that for "Clear Beyond". Clear Beyond can be internally bi-wired, while Clear cannot (Clear Beyond is 4 double conductors rather than 2). If bi-wiring is required, a shotgun, external bi-wire run of "Clear" should be the way to go (and presumably would cost about the same as Clear Beyond).

Interconnect pricing is significantly lower, being about $1800 for a 1-meter single ended (RCA) pair, and about $2150 for 1-meter balanced (XLR) pair.

From my conversation with George, he could not be more enthusiastic about his achievements with the Clear lineup. There probably will be a power cable incorporating the technology of Clear, but don't look for it in 2009. Hope this helps.
