Speaker Cables for B&W CDM 7SE


I have been starting to build a decent stereo, off and on purchasing due to budget contraints. I am ready to move on to the speaker cables and I have no idea about speaker cable differences and cost vs. sound improvement for my system. I have a pair of B&W CDM7SEs connected to a Acurus DIA 150. I prefer a full sound with bass. Any help would be appreciated.

If you're not getting a full sound with bass, I would look into upgrading your speakers rather than try to produce bass in a limited range speaker
by trying to find cables that will produce bass in a speaker that doesn't
produce that much bass. Next, once you find a full range speaker, you'll need the correct amplifier to produce the best bass response. Cables cannot produce amplification and they cannot produce bass in a limited
range speaker. Enjoy your system like it is and save your money for your
next speaker and amplifier upgrade.
Personally, i don't have a problem with Monster speaker cables, although they are over-priced. You can get the same cables without the Monster
brand name on them for less. It is Monster interconnects that I don't care for. IMO, they are based on some questionable theories and are --
again -- over-priced. But, Monster is not alone and they are certainly
not the worst offender. Most brand name cables are incredibly over-priced for what they offer. At the level of your speaker and components,
I think Monster cable speaker wire is fine and an upgrade is not going
to give you any more bass in your CDM7's. That's my opinion.
