Biggest Baddest Audio Cables

Twenty years ago and friend and I used Distech speaker wires in shotgun wirings to make power cords. I still have a pc with four. He went all the way to 16 and said he was still getting an improvement. I dropped out at four.

Somewhere in all the crap in my storage room I have Bill Low's Big Red speaker wire. It is about 1.5" in cross section. The copper now is oxidized, but I don't remember it being very good. I don't know what gauge this would amount to, perhaps 2?

Tbg, I had Audioquest Big Red too. You're right, it was not great sounding, I remember Kimber being superior and it was WAY smaller.

I found it difficult to understand the undisputed claim that gold has a lower level of resistance than silver, according to the periodic table silver is the best conductor, followed by copper, gold however is quite a bit less conductive. I therefore conclude that it is used to gain a sweet (slow?)sonic presentation, rather then its conductive properties. I am very impressed with the UPOCC silver, and at present presume this to be the best metallic conductor available at present.

Silver bad, copper GOOOOD! I've gone through the mill again with cables and tried all the new offerings such as SR Tesla and the winner IS.....MIT! Me likey:O )

Dave_b, it just shows the futility of forums on sound. I found even the SR accelerator superior to the Oracle Analogs or the Nordost Odins. The SR Apex are in their own league. I just hope this continues to hold as I bought many SRs.
