Speaker Cables for VANDERSTEEN 5 speakers

Musicxyz...you have tested 400 cables and found these HiDiamonds, the best?? Sounds like you were very busy. In my experience ALL cables sound different on different systems. Although you might have preferred your Italian wires with your components only says that YOU like these wires with YOUR components. Anti-Cables sound best on MY system after having Cardas, Nordost, Purist, and Audioquest Sky/Everest. The Audioquest pairing sounds extremely good, but the Anti-Cable pairing sounds VERY similar...so much so that my wife and some friends could not decide which is better. I therefore stand by the Anti-Cable pairing with Vandersteen 5's (mine are 5A's which are very similar). The choice is yours. If you live near Scottsdale, Arizona, you can listen to my system and hear if it meets your liking.

There are no questions that the equipment will affect the sound and I have no problems respecting other people opinions. It is also important to not get sucked into the huge marketing plans from some of the larger cable companies. If you are happy with your system, truthfully that is all that really matters. My system evolved over 30 years with 5 other guys and at this point in time I have my most emotionally involving system I have ever owned; this is also one of the least expensive systems I have owned. The HiDiamond cables pushed my system over the top in regards to being emotional; it’s not something I can put a price on.

Where can one demo these Diamond cables?

Hi all ! WOW !! let's see 400 cables at , I dont know , maybe 100 hrs per set for break in....plus " testing " time . Crap , just the break in time is 40,00 hours . 1667 days just to break in the cables ? (is it just me?)

400 cables and all are the same wire with copper/gold/silver and space dust. The model of each company all sound different.

400 cables and one winner? GMAB. I really would like to hear this super,beat out 400 wires, cable. Please send me your digital cable X. Need Spdif 1.5M.

Xyz does have the Def4 so I will not write him off completely.
