The Best kept Secret in Speaker Cables please?

LOL! Good luck as everyone claims their cables are the best. I did have a chance to hear the OPUS and it is fantastic but even discounted to $20,000 it is not worth it. You might want to try Siltech G3 which is not bad. I think you will want to try many brands. Perhaps the Cable Company is the answer?

It is interesting that a person who asks about the "best kept secret in Speaker Cables" himself names (as a “reference” for his requests) Valhalas and Transparent, that probably are two the most barbaric and sonically-dangers (although the marketingly blown up) cables in the contemporary Audio. As many other question on audiogon your request shines with intelligence and provoke the adequate answer. I am sure that will have them.

Good luck,

The BEST kept secret is this: there IS no "best" cable for every system. The "best" cable for a given system depends totally on which amplifier is driving which speaker. You can put together a system in which Valhalla sounds like junk and old MH-750 Shotgun makes you weep with joy. The same is true in reverse.

Now if you mention your amp & speakers, then we might get somewhere :)

LAT International. See the archives and audioreview.com I rewired my whole system with their IC-200 XLR-interconnect, IC-20 digital, and SS-1000 speaker cables, and the effect for comparetively littler money was excellent

Yes, people here set themselves up asking questions without knowing what they want or in which direction their systems are headed...

Regarding speaker cables, I had the opportunity to audition ( in my own system ) Lak's Midnight Silver Edition by Ridge Street Audio Designs. They are truly phenomenal speaker cables and ICs, I would say.
