What do you want them to do? What do you need? Cables other then the cables used inside the speakers will change what the designer had intended or wants them to sound like. So to your ears what don't you like about the cables you are using? Here is my 2 cents. If you want to get more speed and detail quality silver cables Wireworld Silver Eclipse biwire UHF used for years in their reference system and I enjoyed them for some time. Bass is good with a quality silver but if you need more foundation more bass and detail a mix of silver and copper. If you need more bass period, copper Cardas great for foundation building bass. If you are looking to open things up extend your sound stage Nordost opens and layers things well but I can tell you the highs will come out at you with the Blue Heavens and Red Dawns told the higher up the line you go the sound remains open and the highs don't come out at you so much. On and on each has it's plus and minuses and could act differently in different systems. It is said they are like tone controls I would say yes and no some tend to open or close the music and layers in or out also. If you find your ideal cable let us know.
Want help on what speakers cables to try.
Not new to this and been around the block to many times and really wanting input from others on what they may recommend.
Speakers cables only, Please.
Have the Audio Space 3.1 Reference 300B Integrated amp.
21 / 25 watts per channel. This drives my Silverline Sonata ( original ) which I believe is 93 maybe 94 DB.
These are Bi-Wire speakers.
2 of my favorites where: Harmonix, and the HT Pro 9 Plus.
I was thinking of trying the HT Pro, the newer cables that are suppose to be a step above the Pro 9 Plus then I read these are for "BIG" speakers and if you have a high powered amp? Well, my speakers are some what big but I am not going to part with my tube amp which is a far cry from "HIGH POWER".
My whole system is tube based other then my digial which I find I seldom use, prefer analog.
So, the question is: Try these new HT Pro, which happens to be bi-wire or try what ?
Have a good audiogon friend I put a lot of faith in on using Bi-wire or single ended. He prefers single ended and go with a good pair of jumpers. So I really will consider either. He has been in this longer then I have.
Should I be considering Copper or Silver ?
Like to keep the $$$$ around 600.00 used. Can go more if need be.
Thanks for your help,
Dave
