I have always believed that when it comes to speaker cables, the biggest decision is Copper vs Silver. Silver delivering brighter sound, while copper favoring bass. I would make the decision on this first - based on which direction you want to nudge the sound of your overall system -- then, get cables with that material that are in your price range and additionally received great reviews. In my case, I have Wilson W/P 8 speakers which are plenty bright, so, I use copper speaker cables to not emphasize the highs even more.
Im going to regret my cable question
Having read so many "do speaker cables matter" threads, reviews, etc., over the years I am going to open up this can of worms again. So here goes.
I would like some opinions on the pairing of my amp, speakers, and a possible upgrade of speaker cables. My kit consists of a Rotel Michi X3, S2 and Monitor Audio Gold 300 G5's.
Would anyone venture a suggestion on what might be a good fit, with a budget of no more than $1200 CND.
I currently have Audioquest Type 4 which are some years old by now. Im looking at AQ Rocket 33 or 44's but I am open to other brands.
Although I understand the "coat hangers work just as well" theory I would prefer only constructive suggestions from those who feel there is a benefit to cable upgrades please.
Cheers.
