Best speaker cables for Creek 5350SE/MA Silver RS6


Hello, all. I have a 1st-gen Creek 5350SE and Marantz SA-8001 SACD, and recently bought Monitor Audio Silver RS6 speakers which need to be bi-wired.

What is everyone else using with their RS6s? I'm using Home Depot 14 gauge extension cord right now. I tried AntiCables with my Heybrook HB2 loudspeakers (which the RS6s replaced), but they were AWFUL in the Creek/Heybrook combination, even after a long burn-in: I went back to the Home Depot DIYs.

Any suggestions for used bi-wires under $200-$300? The MIT CVT Terminator 2 cables Stereophile used in their review are out... too pricey.

Hello, everyone: Thanks for all the input. My cable update is that I'll probably be going with MIT CVT2 bi-wires as Stereophile recommended, after missing my shot at some used Acarian Black Orpheus Bi-Wires. I was toying with the idea of building up a Lenco L75 instead, to replace my Dual CS5000, but the MIT CVTs will make everything sound better, not just LPs.

Used cables, of course... even then, they're pricey.
