Don't read you'll be sorry

If you read audio quests description, they don't clearly say the k2 wire is solid silver. They talk about a smooth surface when they discuss silver, so maybe it is only supposed to be silver coated.

How did you determine which plugs went into which inputs on the speaker end of the biwire cables. Supposedly, if they are reversed, where the high frequency ends went into the woofer inputs, you would get a lighter bass and alternatively, if the bass ends went into the treble inputs you would experience a less articulate treble. Is there some sort of marking on the wire that tells you which is which?

The wires are terminated as single wire, the bezels have "Amplifier end" and "Speaker end" Silkscreened on them.

Upon deconstructing the wires the internal wires all have marking on them indicating gauge, intended purpose and direction ie. "17 gauge - treble -> " in this case where they came terminated as a single wire cable all 4 red and black leads are twisted together out of the bezel, covered with a piece of cable flex, then terminated with a banana plug, red and black respectively.

The naked ground wire form both sides of the cable are twisted together then connected to the black terminal. In my setup I suspect that this is not an optimal cable to use as my power amps are fully differential which means that the negative node is not ground but carries signal, the cable seems to be constructed as to suggest that the negative lead is ground.

If you want to try them $ 380 would get them shipped to you :-)

As always, Good listening.

Hmmmmm, let me think.......ummmmmm.......NO, NOT REALLY SORRY AT ALL!!!!!......Anyway...

...and after all nice business opportunity to all readers isn't it?

Gotta appreciate Placebo that makes some people very rich due to audiophiles who read Stereophile.

Gotta ask profet Mr Fremer what he would think about that LOL!

Gotta raise my both hands to appreciate Tycomb for posting and presenting learning resources for naive and rich 'goners.

And finally, don't know where Peter had ID'd authenticity, but it's really not the point. The point is that hopefully we all see wire prices will go down quite a-bit.
