Looking for really fine cables at really low price


I have been listening to excellent sounding Exemplar exception cables for the last several weeks. While my HFCables are better they are also much more expensive than the below $500 cables.

They offer an excellent sound stage, dynamics, and top to bottom quality sound. Not only are they inexpensive but they are very portable and easy to install.

I am not a dealer or investor in this company.

Anyone interested in a group buy from Alan (Audiodharma Cable Cooker)?

And has anyone tried the single core WE 16ga? 

+1 curious about the journey of the V-Twist. Chris is usually right. 
/signature: strip the isolation further away and make a noose, be careful that the bare wires do not touch anything else or get some good Furutech spades, e.g FP 203(r). There are also rhodium plated OFC spade plugs on Ebay for less money.
Theresa (or rather Wallace) Jacobs has no offering on long WE16ga runs but user "soundofthetheater" has 50ft runs of Western Electric 14 ga KS13385 cloth wire. Can I assume that this type, made by American Insulated Wire  (now Southwire?) is exactly the same as Jacobs' offering?


So no difference sonic wise re the vintage year? I noticed a range between 1940s (according to some, not verified) and 1999 in production years so the process for the core, the composition of and the process for the isolation could have changed. I am about to make a big buy so would appreciate more comments before I pull the trigger.

mac4805:  >>Does this audio journey ever end? 
I think this is a rhetorical question as the journey is more interesting than the destiny which is hard to define. Many have experiences close to "there", "here" but who knows it can even get better. A matrix like experience with signals fed directly to the brain maybe not fiction but science some day. Till then....

Thanks mac for the reassurance. I pulled the trigger for a 1,000ft roll.

Never before was I so convinced getting so much for so little. Albeit late to the game, I have now stocked up on the WE10ga and WE14ga and will start replacing wiring inside some of my speakers and amps with them.

Having said that, the 8 strand helical braid of 26g 6N copper from Jupiter is a real treat used as interconnects, more refined compared to the WE16ga. No need to run, they are still being made.
+1 Yep, there are important things than audio. People and places come before things.

Mac: and I have about 200 ft of the We 10ga.  I am more crazed to buy so many High Fidelity cables at such high prices. WE is already running out on Ebay so better stock up. Besides that, replacing all the speaker wires in my theater takes up 600 ft (the 1k roll is single wired).
As mentioned in another post, I prefer the WE10ga for speaker cables (single runs) and power cords so far, I am finished at least 4 variants for power cords and will test them after burning in. 

For sourcing, Wallace Jacobs (tajacobs on Ebay) is very helpful. Otherwise one need to resort to overseas markets like Taiwan and Hong Kong. Frankly I am surprised that there are still lots of WE left. 

Questions regarding AC plug/IEC:
-which pairs below $100 per set are your favorites? So far, I like the Furutech F11 (solid as usual) and Neotech NC-P311/P302 (not so solid but UPCOCC and cryo'd) which are currently discounted. 
-any better alternatives than the Furutech F-28 (r)?
