The Best Cable??

This is an article from a popular Mag with a writer listening to exotic speaker cable and generic cable. The article should make you sit up andsmile knowing that for a paupers fee you to could have the ultimate sound.

Okay, but I wanted to hear {writer} the difference myself. At a Manhattan Showroom manager Albert agreed to play a favorite tune through the shop's $140,000 Wilson speakers, first using $15 generic cables and then a pair of $25,000 speaker wires from high-end cable maker____? Could I tell them apart? They both sounded fantastic, but it was hard to hear the $24,985 difference.Albert patiently explained what to listen for: a tighter, deeper bass; more separation between the instruments. We tried again. I took a guess: Was the $25,000 sound a little more...spacious? Albert smiled the way you would at a toddler reciting the alphabet. "That's a very, very good way to describe it!" he gushed. I had passed the test.

Yes! It should be dramatic! More inner detail, more dynamic, more extended highs, more extended tighter bass and faster. It won't be warmer than the Hero but may make you want to try different wire where the Hero is.

Hazard - I had AQ King Cobras XLR. It used to be called Python before AQ moved production to China and renamed cables lowering prices to stay competitive. King Cobras are pretty good with natural/balanced sound (more refined than Diamondbacks). I wanted a little more refinement and looked for Acoustic Zen Silver Reference II that runs less than $400 used (since I have AZ speaker Cables) and ended up with used Acoustic Zen Absolute - $600 was an offer I could not refuse. How would I describe difference - a little bit of everything better. Same balance but amazingly clean and slightly snappier. I would be happy with Silver Reference II, but as I said, I could not refuse.

Hazard,
Get rid of the "Monster"!

Hazard, start with a run of Kimber Select 1021 from your source, will be a huge improvement and the hero won't hurt it...
