Look at the Wireworld Equinox as a nice upgrade in your price range. Excellent cable with a great company to support it. This was the cable that got me off the merry-go-round, which included the CV-8 at one point.
Any opinions on the Audioquest CV-8 Speaker Cable?
I’m running an Esoteric I-03 Integrated into Focal Sopra No.1 speakers. Sources include a Lumin S1 and PS Audio Directstream DAC and Memory Player. Just wondering if upgrading the cables would be worth the money. I would be willing spend up to $1200.00 to upgrade. I’m looking for someone that has used the CV-8s cables in their system and upgraded.
