Looking for really fine cables at really low price

I have been listening to excellent sounding Exemplar exception cables for the last several weeks. While my HFCables are better they are also much more expensive than the below $500 cables.

They offer an excellent sound stage, dynamics, and top to bottom quality sound. Not only are they inexpensive but they are very portable and easy to install.

I am not a dealer or investor in this company.

Strange as the WE10 gauge is the polar opposite of sizzle and sibilance in my rig. Smooth highs and tons of body. I don't terminate mine however. Just bare wire best.

Any feedback on sonic differences between the Belden 8402 and Duelund 16GA interconnects? Which is more extended at the top end? How about bass slam? Listening taste almost solely Jazz female vocals and acoustic instrumental especially piano and acoustic guitar. Thanks.

pc123v, Really not even close IMHO. The 16GA is far more extended and open. Far more transparent while retaining all of the wonderful musicality of the Belden. The Belden is good, but next to the Duelund it is rather too dark and muddy sounding.

Thanks for your feedback. If I may...I have a few more questions.

What kind of connectors did you use? Did you experiment with different types of connectors and what were your findings? I am seeking the vintage tone of the Duelunds but I have to be real careful with HF extension and energy...not too much...:) I am ok with an IC having an open SQ. 
 Are your Duelunds shielded at both ends?

Thanks again.
