What cable caused you to become a cable "junkie" ?


I admit that I'm a cable junkie. It started for me back in 1979 when I changed out some Monster Cable zip-type speaker cables for the then new MIT MH-750 Music Hose. Ever since then, I have always been obsessed with cables( interconnects,speaker cables, and power cords)I keep telling myself that my system is fine, but ultimately I yearn to try out a new power cord to see if I can get that last bit of resolution. Any other cable nuts like me, or do I have a unique problem that a real audiophile doesn't have.

When I first sawa apir f Fulton Gold's my jaw droped. Not only were they huge, the cost was quite high at the time. I asked Bob for a loaner but with him it was always "cash up front".

Upon revceiving this cables, I put hm on my premiers and miracles happend. Th sound opend up, speakers became more efficient, and thet dam thign just osunde dmy dynamic. Having mentioned this to my local ausio shop, they also laughed and gasped ta the price, saying their was no market for this crap. so I decided to bring them in fora test drive on their Dayton Wrights, AR-LSTs and IMF Monitors. Within an hour, my shop owner wanted to place an order for 18 pair of 14 footers!. So I decided to ask Bob if I could sell them for him. I bacame his largest distributor in North America.

Those cables had uncanny ability to make evrything sound better,and although many newer designs have come out, the
audio quality has not apprecialted that much. The big drawback for most cables is the guage. I beleive the thinner guages just don't deliever the total signal. One thing about the Golds, everthing was big, the terminals, the thickness, the insulation and the sound. I often wonder why todays cables are very fnacy and thick, but all terminate in crappy 12 gauge solid stranded wire? Doesn;t make sense to me at all. Anyway, i am still using doubled up Golds to drive my Premeirs and to the dismay of my aidio shop, they cannot find anything to imporve on them. A rael great product that has stood the test of time.
ELF Custom Cable,Inc "Silver Signature" these are the best sounding speaker cables I have ever heard regarless of price!You can only get them on audiogon.
