after Valhalla, i changed to

The purpose of a cable is to alter the signal as less as possible.

Blind test me and I will tell you whenever a system is cabled with Valhalla.

Now, is that neutral?

Well, could be that Valhalla is the only one that gets it "right," and that turns out to be pretty easy for you to spot.

" after Valhalla, i changed to .."
Excellent subject. No question (I think) that 5-6 years ago Valhalla was accepted golden standard but now there are better cables
So, Durbin you comment that "...could be that Valhalla is the only one that gets it "right," is a few years late - at least as mojority if not all contributors to the thread noted.

My, today's golden standard is Elrod Silver speaker cables for about the half the price of Valhalla and "out of the world" standard is Elrod Gold speaker cables - one I auditioned is about the same price as Valhalla and another just twice more....

All The Best

Try the new Shunyata Aeros Series. If they are too expensive, you can go to the discontinued Constellation series. The Antares IC and Orion speaker cable represent one of the best match, and now you can find them at very affordable price.
Altought, it´s hard to say wich one is better. It depend on the system match.
Stealth, Elrod, Virtual Dynamics, Kubala-Sosna, Siltech......and more can compete or beat the Valhalla.
Good luck
