Biggest Baddest Audio Cables

As the author of this thread from the year 2000,

I respectfully suggest that the so called "speaker connectors" mentioned above should not be included in a peer group of "BIGGEST BADDEST AUDIO CABLES."

Rather, they might be recategorized in another thread devoted to "WAF Disasters" or "Weirdest Tweaks".

Let's get back to BIG and BAD.

Cheers,

Big & Bad = MIT Oracles. period.

I was looking back at horsestoharleys posts and I understand what he is saying...the network boxes can do more for the audio signal than any ultra grade wire can.

might chime in to continue on horsetoharley's thoughts on surface area: best cables i ever heard were prana natarajas (i almost bought the cosmos, but i couldnt' afford them). the prana, a silver-foil design, bested IMO the transparent reference MM (older model), jorma #1, isoclean super focus, and everything i owned / demo'd prior to it (fair disclosure, some friends preferred the jorma, which are awesome as well).

maybe the surface area is a big thing? i will concede the networks certainly are...

Excepting for some rare system synergies, silver wires (especially ribbon designs)are just not as musical or tonaly correct. I've had some of the best, and they were far from being musical compared to a well done copper cable.
