Ken, I can only tell you that the Bear Labs Silver Lightning interconnects are indeed killers, I use them throughout my system. They gave the Siltechs and Wireworld Silver Eclipse III--my two favorite cables--a fight to the draw, and the price of the Bear Labs won me over. But keep in mind I strongly prefer silver wire, and use all tubes, so as always choices are system dependent.
The Bear Labs speaker cables are also nice, but not in the same league as the interconnects, IMO. I still prefer Siltech and Wireworld there, or, if I need a fuller sound, my JPS Superconductors always work nice.
But the interconnects, they are a serious bargain, no doubt about it. Neutral and open, with no glare whatsoever. Highly recommended.
