FMS Blue


I have 2 pair of FMS Blue 3 ft. interconnects that I purchased in 1985. Anyone familiar with these and if so are they comparable to today's cables? Are they classics? What is their value?

I have a 20 foot pair that I bought around the same time. I'd also like to know some info about this product / company. Are they still around?
FMS stands for "Favorite Music Systems". This brand was sold by Joe Harley and Bill Low originally. They went on to found Audioquest. The first of their cables were marked FMS by Audioquest. Then the name changed to Livewire, then to just Audioquest.

I hope I am remembering this correctly. I was one of the first Audioquest dealers and seem to recall this history.

The FMS blue that you have, became Livewire Type 6, then Audioquest Blue...I think.
Smooth and even response from bottom through top ends.
Bass is acceptable.
Somewhat veiled compared to today's cables, but very good in its time.
Not as quiet as today's cables.
Build quality and RCA's were good.

In their current market FMS Blue was excellent.
Value today??? Probably not too much.
