Transparent Musicwave Super speaker cables, 12 ft length

Anyone heard of these? A pair came with an Anthem P5 I just purchased. Another question I have, they’re too long and I hate to make them shorter. Could I coil them so I don’t have to cut them? Otherwise, I can’t use them. They will replace Audioquest Type II cables.

Good to read that you are pleased w/ the outcome- oldschool1
Yes, some discs will sound better or worse than others depending on the mastering. Still,  enjoy those older discs for sound quality. Most remasters are highly compressed, limited dynamics in comparison.
Happy Listening!

I see. oldschool1

George Meyer has an excellent reputation. A bookshelf, monitor or floor stander are all quite different. Much will depend on the brand of loudspeaker.

There is much junk in the marketplace. I have been disappointed by a few brands over the years.  Upon selecting speakers you must spend much time among the designs, manufacturers.  Happy Listening!

that is nice gear indeed. I like those Paradigm Signature series w/ a REL sub- wise choice.  Are you swapping out all AQ cabling for the Transparent Cabling?

Happy Listening!

MM is the original or considered "MM1".

Keep me posted as you massage these cables into your system. I look forward in reading about your listening thoughts, impressions and remarks.


Happy Listening!

2nd note;

Audioquest is a sonic match for Anthem gear.  If you enjoy your cables on-hand, fine.  You can always wrk your way up their product chain (much like Transparent).  Happy Listening!

oldschool1-

big fan of Transparent cabling here.  Is this the MM1 or MM2 series?
The Music Wave Super is certainly the "sweet spot" for Transparent especially the MM2 series.  I have had the MM2 Super in my system historically and it is excellent.  Happy Listening!
