Von Schweikert VR2

Any suggestions on a good match for these speakers
would be greatly appreciated.
Right now, I am using my backup cables (Nordost Gold)

I have the speakers dialed in to the nth degree, and
now I need to ditch the stock jumpers & backup
cables. They are very detailed & dynamic with wide & deep
soundstage. Now I want to add
a degree of sweetness.

The rest of my gear consists of:

Spectron D-1 amp
EE Mini Max tube pre.
Audio Note Cd 2.1x cdp
Wireworld silver ic's
Stock Pc's. (Upgrade planned)

System right now sounds great but a little harsh (hashy)??
"sometimes", and seem to get somewhat of a headache after
long sessions (fatigue??) I'm sure it's the $75 dollar
cables & steel jumpers!!??

Thanks for any suggestions.

Go to Radio Shack and buy the best speaker cable they offer and call it a day - almost all the speaker cables and interconnects in this industry are overpriced and the biggest rip-off going. Nine out of ten, perhaps ten out of ten people couldn't tell the difference between one speaker cable over another.

Let's see, a Bel Canto digital amp with Von Schweikert VR4 Gen III speakers, --- pay no attention to me I guess I don't have the kind of system to resove the differences cables can make. Or maybe I'm one of those people who think 99% of us couldn't tell the difference between various cables.

However, if you are one of the fortunate one's who can hear the difference please go with Oz's suggestion. Afterall, the Luminous cables are 'only' $12.00 per foot which shouldn't break the bank, and maybe they may even help 'add a degree of sweetness' lacking with your Nordost cables.

At any rate, best of Luck I understand the VR2's are good speakers.
