| A23 Cables Shindo equipment uses a specific connector that needs a lightweight cable to avoid damage. Shindo cables sound better than a23 with Shindo equipment, but the a23 is very good. | |
| Best bookshelf loudspeakers under 10,000 for the pair You should take a look at the Wilson Benesch line. Below is a link to a used pair of Discovery speakers.
