Best speaker cable for Acoustic Zen's Adagios

I have just acquired a pair of Acoustic Zen Adagio speakers. I want to upgrade my speaker cables which are Analysis Plus Oval 12; I would think the Adagios need a better speaker cable. I have been recommended the Acoustic Zen Satori, but I am open to other alternatives. This is an amazing speaker which I want to bring to its peak performance. Thanks Jim

I used AP Oval 9 and AZ Satori, Hologram II. AZ are better cables, more air, better soundstage, more musical. It will be an excellent match for Adagios. Absolute is even better if you can afford it, it beats many higher priced cables.

Robert recommended me sticking with hollowgram2 over the absolute...he said not with the sim gear.He could of sold me on the absolutes(i needed them)...i like that.You can always call and get his expertise,imho.Another worthy upgrade is the outriggers made for adagios.

Jkuc, Are you currently using the Satori or the Hollogram II?? I should have mentioned in the post that my amp is a Creek SE 5350 Classic integrated amp(85RMS). Though, it could be replaced by separates. The Creek seems to perform way over its sticker price---nevertheless, the Adagios are great speakers.,,, I want to thank all members who have particpated in the discussion so far, Thanks Jim

Jim, I used all AZ speaker cables, currently Absolute.
Hologram II is better then Satori though Satori is an excellent cable for the price.
I had Creek SE 5350 a few years ago. Very good but not as "lush" and 3D as the best.
