Speaker cable suggestions


So my vandersteen 2ce sig's are on their way. Also, I have a mccormack dna-1 deluxe. Preamp is a Rotel RC995, CD player is also a Rotel. For interconnects, I am using the older MIT 330 shotguns.

I like to listen to acoustic, rock, and electronic music. So far I have been getting by with some cheapo monster speaker cables, but since the vandersteen is bi-wireable, it's a good time to upgrade.

Some people say that I should stay with MIT, since I am already using MIT for IC's. What are your thoughts? My range is $250-$550. What models (MIT or others) would you recommend with my setup and preferences? Please help...personal experiences would help greatly. I know there are alot of Vany/McCormack people out there.

Thanks

I've tried a lot of different cables over the years, none of them priced much higher than your stated range. There's a lot of hype and "black art" explanations regarding wire in general (and as we all know, outrageous profit margins in most cases). I won't get into wires that haven't worked for me, but will point out a couple that I like. For very little money QED Silver Anniversary wire is quite good, and I've long been a fan of Goertz Micropurl. These products aren't really suited to your rig, you have some nice gear that deserves a bit better. In your price range I can only recommend DH Labs Q10, I suggest you get ahold of DH and give the Q10's a try. The wire is well made and backed by some great guys, Greg has been very helpful to me. No, I don't have a personal stake in DH in any way, I happen to like their stuff and feel it's a product I'm very comfortable recommending to other 'philes.
I used to have Audience AU24 with my McCormack gear (driving dynaudios at the time). It's really wonderful, nad in your price range. Acoustin Zen also a reasonable choice.
Signal Cable silver resolution -exactly in your price range- I would not trade mine for other types- Ive had several previously (not to drop any names) Talk to Frank at SC -hes always glad to help answer questions
I use MIT Magnums M3 with all Krell gear and Martin Logan speakers. Very Pleased with MIT. I hope this helps.
Try a pair of Analysis Plus Oval 9's. They are in your price range used, and new, depending on the length you require.
