Valhalla or SPM speaker cable ??

I agree with rch10, Valhalla BLOWS AWAY SPM! I A/B ed these cables with a pair of electostats. The SPM sounded dull and lifeless when compared to the Valhalla. The Valhalla has much more "air" and micro-dynamics. I would go with a one meter pair, should you decide to move your equipment, even a little bit. Also, I think that should you ever decide to sell them, a 1/2 meter pair would have very limited appeal on the used market. BE SURE TO GET THEM WITH THE NEW 2002 TERMINATIONS! Happy Tunes!

I have ordered the new HMS cables from Germany, this guy is offering here at Audiogon. He promises it is as good as the Valhalla, but for a bargain price. 8 ft. sell for $2950 versus $7000 for the Valhalla. He gives a 30 days money back guarantee, so I thought I have nothing to loose.
He believes the cable is even up to par with the Siltech cables.
I will keep you posted once I have auditioned the cables. He promises I would get Valhalla performance for the price of the SPM speaker cables.

I have hade both in my system (Dunlavy IV/a's, Ailoia amps (soon to be Plinius SA-102's, yes a pair, I'm so excitied just waiting for them, Ailoia pre-amp, and the Sony SA-CD1 with the mod in it) and the Vahalla's were the best hands down. I liked them much better the SPM's and liked them better then my current NBS Statement's. They are extremely revealing and transparent, so if your equipment isn't up to them they well be happy to let you know. But other then that they are the best interconnects that I "havn't" heard.
