Speaker cables with good timbre


As the title says, i would like to hear recommendations on a pair of speaker cables, copper, that have a very good midrange, imaging and truth of timbre or faithful reproduction of instrument sound. As i get older i started to realize i value those characteristics the most when i listen to recorded music. Thank you in advance.

@squared80 if cables don’t matter, I want you to explain to me why my new cables have 70% less bass the first 12 hours of ownership.

my speakers have 4 10-inch woofers with 4 dedicated internal amps powering each of these woofers, they are not bass shy. So when I say 70% less bass because of the cables for the first 12 hours, it is serious. Please explain to me why this is so or gtfo.

Ignore the wannabe scientific cable trolls spewing buzzwords with no supporting details to back up anything they read and parrot here from other sites.  

Remember this, most have never tried an actual audio analyzer to measure frequency response of a cable nor try to understand the affected frequencies passing through a cable.

Passing a consistent test signal, like a pink noise or a sweep tone, sent through the cable to analyze its frequency response across the audible range is one method.

However there is recycled Lamp cord and coat hangers, use whatever you got. If you do test and compare, and still can't hear a difference, good for you, save your money. Happy listening. 

 

Don’t go into a cable section and call it snakeoil or this and that. If you do, you should get banned IMO.

Naysayers don’t take the time to question whether the purity of the conductor matters or not. The type of conductor, the quality of the connectors and the solder process. The geometry. Thousand of different variations. How can a respectable person not take this into consideration. 

The connector by itself is a huge variable even though it's just a small part of the cable.
