mapleshade cable recomendations

Their speaker cables sound amazing in my experience. 

I use their plus version ic's to the sub amps, have used their speaker cable in the past along with ic's, i preferred them over anticables and others, have moved to cerious technologies cable with the exception of the bass amps, the mapleshades have excellent bass.  (all the components and speakers of my system sit on mapleshade platforms & brass footers, those i highly recommend).
as others have said, the speaker cable is excellent for the $, as are the ic's, but delicate indeed.  I still use their power conditioner for the computer, monitor, & lights...it is def a nice improvement.

I've tried their Ribbon interconnects and Digital SPDIF...whatever their top ones were at the time (about 8 years ago or so).

I really like the Ribbon interconnects...great transient snap, great midrange, and bass slam I hadn't heard from my (at the time) midlin' ICs. But, they are very, very fragile and eventually I traded them out.

The digital cable had similar characteristics to the interconnects. Also very fragile. 

And, in both cases, because there is effectively no insulation on the wires, it was very, very hard to route the cables so that didn't pick up any manner of noise.

In a nutshell: nice sound, but too fussy.

I did try one of their power cords and it shorted out, fried my amp fuses, and put a lot of nasty smoke into the air. They refused to repair/replace, so I never bought from them again.

Yes, perhaps you’re right. Or Michael Green. 

I’m green with jealousy. 🤢

I believe you have yourself confused with Viridian...

Ah, you have the Omega Mikros? I’m green with jealousy. 🤢

I’ve not found the speaker cables to be delicate,  been using various ones for 20 years...not so the IC’s

I stepped on the super delicate speaker cables at the Show in Vegas with Pierre and Ron. There was some yelling if I recall correctly. The super Skinny stuff sounds wonderful. Omega Mikro.

I tried their regular speaker cables a long time ago and found they had a high degree of clarity.  I think they would work well in a system that is perhaps a bit boomy or lacking in midrange/vocal clarity.  

I think their speaker cables are excellent, and each upper model worth the cost increase.  They also work great as a double run.

google mapleshade....look for info....free upgrades....cable  upgrades.... there are suggestions that i have not tried and i am asking if anyone else has.... thanks

I tried a pair of their interconnects.  Like nonoise, I also found the cables a bit lightweight.  It wasn't for my taste.  I would think they would be probably used with a tube amp, no more than 40wpc.  Don't even get me started on their power cord.

Look at Purist its much better.Enjoy!!

The Double Helix is better than the single strand version. More presence and base without a reduction in the highs. I've moved on, however, due to it's overall light touch or rendering of the music. 

All the best,
