Speaker wire for Pure Audio Project Speakers... advice needed....!


 

Hello blissed out fellow PAP lovers! 

I have been chasing a next level system (for me) and I am on my final decisions / tweaks. I am looking for advice on speaker wire,.

The qualities I seek are golden midrange, reduced high frequency shrill (current issue with system is painful highs), while pushing incredible soundstage, depth, detail, etc... I listen to mostly acoustic, classical, jazz, vocals...

My system currently:

  • SPEAKERS: Pure Audio Project Duet 15 Horn (Mundorf Silver Gold Oil Cap upgrade and high pass filter, Anticable 4.2 Flex Internal wire)

  • STREAMER: Nagra Streamer (Cardas Clear Coaxial)

  • DAC: HoloAudio Spring 2 Level 3 Kitsune edition (Silversmith Fidelium RCA Interconnects)

  • AMP: PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium HP Integrated (Gold Lion KT77 power tubes, Mullard NOS gain tubes)

  • PHONO: Music Hall MMF-9 and McIntosh MP 100 Preamp

Speaker wire I am considering (10-12’ runs)

  • DUELUND 12GA: $500

  • ANTICABLES: 3.1: $430

  • ANTICABLES: flex 4.2: $800

  • SILVERSMITH: $1595

  • CARDAS CLEAR: $4500

Cost is of course an issue, until it the obsession takes hold...! Big fan of high dollar - delight ration.... big fan of not feeling like I am pinching my most glorious machine anywhere... 

 

I am currently running Duelund 16GA, and the high frequency shrill I think I have determined is most likely attributed to this... 

Thank you for your suggestions and insight!

Cardas Golden Cross.  Older but still much sought after.  Try ebay as well as the audio-specific sites.
