The Cable Company advice?

Where else can you just try and send back repeatedly? I could never have done cable to cable comparisons without the CC lending library. My rep seemed to like Cardas. I did end up buying a pair but I bought used; after knowing what I liked. 
 

they did send me one pair that was 1.5m because it was what they had in stock and of course billed me based on that price; but all in all it was a reasonable experience and I am sure I’ll be trying more from them.

Great experiences with the CC. Bought all my cables there after extensive in home evaluation. Compared the Shunyata Denali and Gemini 8 Power conditioners along with Gamma and Theta power cables. Preferred the Gemini with the Gamma. Compared the Alpha, Sigma and Omega Clock cables. CC is a great asset allowing you the ability to try everything and all combinations in your system. If you’re going to upgrade or buy new cables or a PC and you’ve identified the brands under consideration in their extensive library the CC is a great resource. As you buy you get increased discounts. I get 11.5% now. Ask for Ethan Wood. Very knowledgeable and responsive. I believe he’s been there a while. They also make returns easy by supplying a UPS shipping label. 

I have used TCC on and off over a 20 year period. I have had only positive experiences. I hadn't borrowed from the lending library and returned. Used the credits on products that I did want. There's always something. Their model of assigned salespersons can be hit or miss, like any relationship. I've had hits only. 

I had a very positive experience with them.

I use Inakustik interconnects and after explaining the rest of my stereo they suggested Inakustik speaker cables based on compatibility and synergy. They do not carry the brand and therefore provided a free consultation and no cable fees.

Seemed quite honest.

I've worked with Steven Aug for close to 20-years and he has always been prompt, informative, patient and professional.
