Lost in Speaker Cable Land - $350 Budget

I vote for Kimber 4TC.

I agree that the Analysis Plus is consistently great for the price.

I've been reading up on the analysi plus oval 9. Seems to get great reviews and would probably complement the sonuses which as you all know aren't the best on the low end.

follow up question - should i then also use the oval 9 for the center channel to best match the tonal qualities produced by the l/r channels?

thanks again.

I had AP Oval 9's on left, right AND center Martin Logan speakers before upgrading to much more expensive Shunyata Lyras.

They are a terrific value given their price, and I totally agree with the other posters' recommendations here. They will add alot of mid-bass bloom and weight if you need that. They do tend to be a bit rolled-off on the highs, but in a very revealing, lean system, that may not be a bad thing.

I also feel that you should always go forward with a center cable that is the same as the left & right - timbre matching is very important and cabling can affect that.

Do yourself a favor, and send an email to Audiogon user Greggstraley. He has some modified Stan Warren design interconnects and speaker cables that are the truest of giant-killers I've ever heard.

I have these in my system, and sometimes put in the UByte speaker cables as implemented by Aural Thrills Audio (Audiogon userid billardhockey). Either of these are absolutely killer, and both are under your budget.

Can't go wrong with either of these, IMO.

Whatever you end up choosing, good luck !
