ANTI-CABLES by Paul Speltz: Anyone Using Them?


I find myself intrigued the Speltz speaker-cable option, in part because the prices are like zero when compared to most speaker cables, but I wouldn't mind reading reactions beyond those he includes in his ads and on his web site.

I'm using the Anti-Cables bi-wired with an Ayre V1xe, and Vandersteen 5A's. There are 4 wires each side from the amp to the speakers. They are not twisted and as far from each other as possible. The sound is stunning.
Paul will braid these for you for a sight fee. I found that straight is better
I have replaced all the interconnects in my system with the Anti-Cable balanced interconnects. They are fabulous
I am not an electrical engineer and can only tell you what I hear. I have all Ayre equipment and Vandersteen 5A's. I am a professional violin player, and can tell you that Paul's cables set up straight and far from each other sound very real to me. I borrowed a pair of Kimber Select all silver cables and they sound very colored - maybe more "impressive", but not nearly so real. Pauls cables have a deeper, wider soundstage, is way quicker (percussion - even the hammers on the piano are much clearer and cleaner). The only cable that I would consider for my system other than Paul's are the Audioquest silvers. They were neutral as well in the system, but I couldn't see spending that kind of green and not get any better performace than Paul's.
