Need advise choosing speaker wire
I just purchased a pair of B&W 802D's. I use a Bryston 14bsst solid state amp and a deHavilland Ultraverve tube preamp. I have a Wadia 302 for my music source. I am in a huge quandry as to what speaker wires to buy...there are hundreds out there. I would like to bi-wire the B&W's. I guess I am looking for the cleanest, non-colored path to the speakers as I very much enjoy the Bryston-deHavilland combo. I really don't want to further "color" my signal with speaker wires as much as I can help it. Thanks for the help, Jim

go to an electronics store or electric motor repair place and purchase 12 guage magnet wire. don't buy it here, as it is WAY overpriced. the stuff retails for about $4 per pound. strip the ends and put it in place. double it up for biwire. the enamel coating is fine for insulation, and you will be very pleasantly surprised at the results. |

Pure Note Paragon. Up there with the best and they are very transparent in my system. You can buy them direct with a 30 day trial. http://www.purenote.com |
-xlo signature 5.2 is pretty good (cost $$$$) -soundstring speaker cable ( $$ - not as well known, but very high performance at a low cost. has the best cost/performace ratio imo)) -Kubla sonsa ($$$$$$- pricey but amazing)either the r -Straightwire crescendo ($$$, big/hugh sound. works well with your speaker/amp combo. btw, dont forget your powercords...they have a profund effect when used together.. hope that helps, mike |
