Looking for really fine cables at really low price
Jet, hate to say it but two runs per leg sound much better based on my experience. More body, weight and fullness. Need to double up! Sorry. 
Homegrown Audio ripoff?
Same thing happened to me and after a month they finally responded and gave me my money back. Keep communicating and I think you will get results .........Strange company.

PC123, the Jupiter flat stacked aluminum are exactly what you want. Sound exactly like you describe!

The Belden wire starts off bright and within just 20 hours becomes natural sounding and quite nice to listen to. Don't let the initial brightness disturb you. It greatly concerned me at first, but quickly went away. The difference is pretty big on...

I understand Charles. Rob, the coupling caps in your amp will make a very nice improvement with Vcap, Jupiter, or Duelund. I am just not 100% sure on the Arizona caps to be honest.

He will not based on my past correspondence with him. He does not want you to mess with the amp period. He went so far as to tell me I was wasting my time and these boutique parts would not make a positive difference. This was a couple of years ag...

Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Good news. 
Short speaker cable recommendation
Ok, forget everything you think about tinned and stranded etc.....this wire will destroy past understandings. Really. No connectors is by far the best! Please just use bare wire if possible. Give it all 30 hours before comment! 
TUBE AMP LOVERS - What SS amp makes you smile???
To help get us back on track I will post on this wire in a new thread. I am finding the Lector VM200 hybrid amp to be very tube like. I know it has two signal tubes, but it does sound like a full-on tube output amp. 
TUBE AMP LOVERS - What SS amp makes you smile???
I guess you lost me. The point of my post was " things to ponder" as related to the poster's question. I mentioned the wire in the context of how it can make one smile with its tube like sound. How it, wire, plays a role in the resulting sound of ... 
TUBE AMP LOVERS - What SS amp makes you smile???
I was asked a question on one of my comments that's all. I gave an answer. As an aside, I do not buy into the notion of "hijacking" here. Right and left turns are common and just fine with me. No crime here, just normal and acceptable meandering i...
