Matty,
How do you like the AM cables? Could you give us your opinion of them as compared to others you may have tried?
Phasecorrect and Jb3...

When I had Europa's, I used (again, per Roy's recommendations) both Analysis Plus and Audio Magic cables. For several months, I was using Audio Magic Excalibur II IC's with Analysis Plus Oval 12's. I then upgraded the speaker cables to Excalibur II's as well. The all-Audio Magic combination was excellent. Don't know if it's the speakers, the cables, or the combination, but there were none of the traditional drawbacks of silver cables, just extremely transparent, detailed, fully-extended sound.

I know Roy recommends the Sorcerers, but if budget is a concern, I found that the Excalibur II's were a great match for a lot less money. The speaker cables specifically were a noticeable upgrade from the AP Oval 12's. For reference, I was alternating between a Jolida 502a and an Audio Refinement Complete, with a Jolida CD-100 as the source.

Hope this helps,
Eric
Jb3,

I found the cables to be very linear with excellent extension on both ends. Utmost clarity with a very deep soundstage, very detailed and dead quiet. Natural timbres with no harshness.

One example, Eva Cassidy "Live at Blues Alley", some of the songs you can clearly hear people talking in the far background and you an hear dishes rattling, either being picked up by the waiter/waitress or from the kitchen.

Quite honestly, I have them up for sale and I am not sure I want to sell them. Kinda glad I have only had tire kickers so far..

Regards,
Oh,

I have only had two other speaker cables in my system, AP Oval 12 (OK cables) and Blue Circle BC92 cables (very good cables). Excaliburs were MUCH better, in my system anyway. They provided much more of everything, except maybe bass when compared to the Blue Circle's.

Regards,
