Inexpensive speaker cables

Randy, Sean, good advice. Go cheap, and make any other cable prove its superiority before you spend your money.

I think it may be only after you make your own gear that you start to notice the limitations in commercial equipment. A good way to save money is wire - and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to link two poorly wired components with exotic cables.

A note about experiments: as Randy notes, breaking the corrosion may be what everyone hears when a New and Better Cable is tried (new connection, no corrosion). Another thing is exact head position of the listener. I have made that mistake myself. The only sure way to do the experiment is to let someone else change the cables, or someone else to judge the quality. Head of the listener should be immobile for the duration of the experiment.

..another positive vote for Clear Day Cables

I would personally get a pair of wireworld oasis 7's in 3M - $390 retail.  

Cables change sound imo i have done swaps personnally many times ( i sold gear at brick and mortar for yrs , we had free time in controlled treated rooms ) I feel little need to battle about it .. some will be nuetral others not , some will do different things . A used pair of acoustic zen satori ( copper and very well insulated would be a the top , used is the route imo .Also as to an earlier post, i have adagios which use satori wire internally also . Many high end spkrs run excellent wire internally . Generally the longer the run the more significant the role .. jmho

I've since gone 100% Transparent on my setup, but I still keep my Anti-Cables around just for comparison from time to time. They're cheap, they're well made, and they brought out the best in my Thiel CS3.5's. I went 100% Transparent as a test. I'd never before had the same brand of cables throughout, so I decided to give it a go and see if spending more delivered anything worth the expenditure. 

I may again use the Antis on my Thiels since I just got a new Pass amp.  In any case I like them both.
