What speaker cable made a major difference in the sound quality of your speakers?? ASI Liveline, bought new from dealer and 2 pairs for TRUE bi-wiring. It's replaced Synergistic Apex ~7+ years ago.

My Audio Research experience I bought the amp second hand from a guy in the US when the Aussie Dollar was higher.thazeldean, I guess you meant preamp? | |
