I have really enjoyed my alphacore MI2 biwire in my system (I know there are those who doubt the physics behind their design, and I must admit less experience with other designs) but I have no complaints, especially for the price. There are more than one critic from more than one high end journal (I can't quote which ones off the top of my head right now) with whom I have agreed after having them in my system for a few months. I also know someone from whom you can get the best price on them (and other cables, components, ect) if you wish to email me. I also use their interconnects with good results. Another low priced but high quality manufacturer whose interconnects and power cords I have tried is harmonic tech. They are best found on the used market. My email is jgcmd@yahoo.com if you want to get more info. Regards.
