Looking for really fine cables at really low price
The WE16g is sounding awesome in my system. Agree with Grannyring that the Belden/WE combo is very musical and has a rich beautiful natural tone for days and days! One thing that bothers me a bit about the Belden IC's is the extra warmth and richn... 
Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
The Mullard CV378 drops more voltage than the 5AR4. If your amp has a B+ of say 425v with the 5ar4 your B+ with the CV378 will drop to around 405v. In my amp the CV 378 makes the sound more relaxed more rich and luxurious. 5ar4 sounds more dynamic...

The WE16 gauge speaker wire sounds great. I understand what the fuss is all about. The Belden interconnects have over 100 hours of burn in so they went into my system this weekend and these IC's also sound really great as well. They sound complete...

Rob, just took a look at Shun Mook's Vintage WE IC. Lots-O-money! LOL! I bought lots of parts at Leeds Radio until they moved to the Bronx. Sounds like your father-in-law was a DIYer. As I remember you are going to build a AN Kit 1 right? It would...

I suppose if someone was really crazy they could build a set of interconnects out of WE16gauge, LOL! Might not be such a crazy idea.

Gotcha thanks Grannyring. After hearing this wire, I'm sure it sounds great.

Grannyring, There used to be Leeds Radio here in Brooklyn that sold NOS electrical stuff and the whole place had that old electric smell :)) They relocated to the Bronx. How are you using the WE16ga in your amp, pre and DAC? Regards-Jet

Rob, I am rooting for Belden and will update once they have about 100 hours of burn in time.

Wow the Western Electric 16 gauge speaker cable sounds great! After two days of listening I hear tonality richness and depth at least equal to my Audio Note Lexus but the presentation is quite a bit more clean and direct. This is suprising to me t...

The Beldon interconnects arrived just now. I'll burn them for 24 hours and try them

64 ft of WE 16 gauge arrived last Wednesday. Love the smell of vintage components!! I made an 8ft bi wire set since my Audio Note AN-Es use bi wire configuration. Bare wire, not terminated per Grannyring's direction. They have been burning in for ... 
High value, high efficiency speakers for SET amps
Condolences Rebbie. May you and your family be at peace. 
Good sounding Deutsche Grammophon recordings
Czarivey, as it happens I picked up Karajan/Beethoven Symp 1 and 2 from the 1962 cycle today and I agree with you. 1 and 2 have the fancy crown and the silver "stereo" label in the center and it does not sound nearly as good as no 3,5, and 7 which... 
Good sounding Deutsche Grammophon recordings
Brownsfan, I feel its a worthy pursuit trying to find the best of the Berlin/Karajan recordings. Non of them are going to be great sounding, but they are such a great orchestra with a great dictatorial conductor that demanded perfection in a bygon... 
TUBE AMP LOVERS - What SS amp makes you smile???
I ordered 64 ft of the 16gauge Western electric black from the 70's. Will order the Belden soon. This will be fun to see if it can better my Audio Note 86 stand Lexus. Thanks Grannyring!
