The Right Speaker Cables


Looking to try new speaker cables. I just tried a pair of Nordost Superflatline cables in place of my Blue Jean Cables. I found the Nordost more detailed which i loved but they didn't have the fullness that Bue Jean provides me. I find the Nordost having a leaner sound. My price range at this moment is around $500 for the pair. Suggestions on other cables I could try.

My System:  Amp - Parasound A21+, Preamp - Parasound P6, Phono Amp - Parasound JC 3 Jr, Turntable - MOFI Studiodeck with Ultra Cartridge, Streamer - Bluesound Vault 2i, Speakers - GoldenEar Triton One.R

For under $500, I like the DH Labs Q-10 signature. It’s a quad cable of silver-plated high purity copper which adds both fullness and detail. In full disclaimer, I do resell DH Labs products, but I do believe they offer the best bang for the buck when not aiming for total endgame cables.

For your budget, also consider Cerious Technologies Graphene Extreme, or if you can find them, Graphene Matrix (which might cost you a bit more on the used market). They are made with ceramic, graphene, etc. They are quite heavy and thick, but they sound incredible at their price point. They certainly deliver more of everything, including fullness and detail.
