Speaker Cable Recommendation Tj thanks for response. HT has an affordable cable that mere mortals can afford to have double runs, and have great sound. I am also amazed at sound I am getting with double runs of Analysis Plus Oval 9, $299 for 8ft new, great sound for audiophil... | |
Bi-wire cable versus 2 sets of cable First you should always bi-wire if speakers have that capability, even if you have only one amp with one set of 5-way posts, use spades for one pair and bannanas for other. Internal bi-wire is the most cost effective and better than single wire, b... | |
Speaker Cable Recommendation Apostle or anyone else, have you compared HT Pro-9 to double runs of HT Pro-11, almost the same price and if cost is no factor double runs are preferable to internal bi-wire. Does Pro-9 use higher grade wire? | |
BEST HEAVY METAL BAND Ground zero for "heavy" metal is Black Sabbath "Paranoid" and the even heavier "Master of Reality" Metallica 1st two albums and Slayer 1st album started American "speed metal" movement, nothing made since then has surpased them. "kill em all" make... | |
Spkr Cble- Analysis Oval 9- reviews? Carl there is reason to be dubious about sudden conversion to AP Ovals, when last year Harmonic Tech was the greatest for these online reviewers. Although Stereophile and Absolute Sound have also endorsed HT cables giving these reviewers some adde... | |

my next upgrade Tony, you need to do some planning ahead so you don't waste precious money. Looking down the road 3-5 yrs what price level system do you plan to have? Right now you have @$3-4,000 system, will you have 5,000 or 7,000 or 10,000 system in a few year... | |
Spkr Cble- Analysis Oval 9- reviews? Fonsy lets not forget the big difference, price!!!! Cardas Golden Cross not listed by Cable Co. but I believe 8ft pair will cost @$1200 or more. You could buy double runs of Oval 9 for bi-wire and still save 50% over Golden Cross single set. If yo... | |
Spkr cbls & IC's-must they be same brand I must agree with Audiolover on this one, he makes good points about different loads and tasks each cable faces, I say mix and match, best of class etc. I wonder if all those recommending interconnects and cables from same company have their CDP, ... | |
Spkr Cble- Analysis Oval 9- reviews? Sutts, if you like Cardas Cross series you will like Oval 9. Similar sound, relaxed smooth detailed midrange, not quite as detailed on top as some more expensive cables especially silver ones, but this may be blessing for most systems. 3D soundsta... | |

Anybody tried the new AQ speaker cables? Hasse, if you go to Volcano/Caldera you will be giving up the silver from Argents, I wonder if new set-up will be as detailed? May get more bass from new larger cable designs, but only way to know is to listen first hand. BTW prepare to dig deeper... | |

Anybody tried the new AQ speaker cables? I asked same question couple weeks ago and got no responses. It is interesting that none of new cable designs use silver, this is a change from previous strategies. I am currently using Argent/Forest bi-wire and would be interested how new cables ... | |
