Opinions on Straght wire?

Ditto, been using their stuff for years also. Well worth the price of admission.

I've been using their cables for quite some time aswell.
My search came to a halt upon installing the Crescendo interconnects.

I've been using their lower end stuff for years in my midfi type gear (Rotel, B&W Matrix etc) with excellent results for dollars paid. Now that I've moved up to better electronics there are better options out there. But for sub $100 cables for midfi gear, it's a good value.

I didn't particularly care for the Encore II interconnects, especially when compared to the PS Audio xStream Statements (sale price).

However, what works for me may not work for you.

I don't have much experience with other
cables, but I really like Straight Wire
Crescendo and the less expensive
Serenade. The Maestro II is pretty nice
too.
