In the last couple of weeks I tried set of Micca 14 cables after reading great reviews of them with some comparing them to $1,000 cables in their systems.  I spent about $60 on two 6’ sets because I have a switch in my cables to support my home theater setup.

I enjoyed the sound of the Micca 14 cables as they had essentially no glare/harshness and were truly easy to listen to  The trade off was in the clarity and detail and the deep bass lost its definition  Sometimes when doing comparisons I don’t have the expected response when I swap back to the baseline. In this case, it was music to my ears.  I strongly prefer my Blue Jeans Cable 10AWG speaker cables in my system.  I lean towards clarity over warmth, but did appreciate the total lack of edginess with the Micca14 cables
