Ohlala,I am getting out of high priced audio because I cant sleep with owning a pair of 2K speaker cables that sound like say $200 cables.I chose every component in my system based on sound quality that I think is way beyond their price tag's.I believe the $300 for the ELF Silver Signatures is a steal.I compared them to a pair of Valhalla's that I had on trial and was shocked at how close the two sound.I could never justify spending 4K on the Valhalla's after hearing the ELF Silver Signatures.

After a couple week's of listening to Ernests' Silver Signature speaker cables I am absolutely amazed by their performance.I was very skeptical in trying a unheard of cable company,but the feedback was very positive so I gave it a go.Boy am I glag,the Silver Sig's have the smoothest top end I have ever heard,there isn't a hint of harshness or shrillness.The treble is however very detailed giving due "acoustic snap" and attack to guitar's and Cellos.I was equally impressed with the midrange performance.I could literally hear the performer's breathing during singing.I was alway's accustomed to big thick cables with big thick bass,but the bass the Silver Sig's reveal is more tuneful and also seemed more dynamic and musical than my Harmonic Tech Pro-9's.The uptempo jazz beat's of Ramsey Lewis'"The in Crowd" are just more substantial with the Silver Signatures in place.The braided transparent silver conductor's look very classy and the WBT terminations are the best in the business.These cables easily look like more exspensive cables and sound more exspensive too.Ernest recommend's I try his Silver Duet interconnect's with the Silver Sig's.He claim's the interconnect's use the same exact conductor's as the speaker cables,and the synergy between the two is out of this world.I should have them by monday and I cant wait!Ernest really believes in simple designs with quality construction and quality part's,I'm a converted believer!I'll report the sound quality of the Silver Duet's when they arrive.Besides great cables,Ernest is a great guy and is fun to cyber-chat with.
