For Those Who Are Unaware of The Cable Company


If you are shopping for new cables and are intimidated by the enormous range of possibilities, The Cable Company might be of interest to you because: 

1) Their cable lending library is an affordable means of borrowing already burned in cables and auditioning them at home. 

2) They offer individualized advice based upon your budget, gear and sonic preferences. 

3) Return/refund policy. 

There have been some complaints in the past about salesmen pushing particular brands. This hasn't been my experience, however. I've repeatedly sought out the guidance of one particular guy and I couldn't be more satisfied with how I've been treated and the sonic improvements. If you are intersected, PM me and I will provide you with his name. 

They don't carry every cable in existence. Nobody does. But they carry a much greater range than anyone else I know of. Accordingly, my last 5 out of 6 cable purchases have been from them.

I’ve used them since the 1990s.  I’ve always had a good experience. 
 

I don’t use their Lending Library if I’m just considering or toying with the idea of maybe getting some new cables, but haven’t really committed to a change.  


I do use the Lending Library when I know I definitely need a change, and have narrowed it down to a select group, of which I can afford one. 
 

I usually audition four cables at a time after extensive research. 

Once, I auditioned four cables and none were satisfactory.  Then I did four more and found a cable that was exactly what was looking for. 
 

No matter what the manufacturers or reviewers say, there’s no substitute for trying them in your system. That’s exactly what The Cable Company allows. It’s a great idea.
