Need recommendations on 15ft speaker cables

Hi, 

I find myself ina situation where I need around 15ft cable pair. Currently I have blue jean Rca cables running. I have upgraded all the other cables and this is the final frontier. Online it is pretty tricky to find used cables of this length.. I see transparent reference cables mostly, which I learned are custom tuned for specific gear.. 

Looking for suggestions from the community on options that will provide SQ upgrade in my situation through speaker cable change..

OP, 

The Transparent that is customizable is many thousands of dollars, this is what you are looking at? But they are not likely to make things warmer.. the warm has to be in your components to start with. Typically that is not the case.
 

Given your goal, you do not want Transparent. I would try Cardas clear… maybe Clear Beyond. Clear Reflections will be even warmer.

Transparent cables are extremely, well, transparent. I own Transparent. Only the highest levels within the Transparent lines is tuned to specific components. They are outstanding in systems where you want the wires to get out of the way. What are your components? If your components are only just adequate, then they can reveal things best covered up. I highly recommend them for audiophile systems.

 

On the other hand Cardas wires are built to be more forgiving at the low end and more transparent and detailed at the high end. So, typically these will be a great match for less than top of the line audiophile components.
