| speaker cables under 1k for Harbeth 30.2XD? I always used Duelund 12 gauge when I had 40.1’s and 40.2’s. Requires 200 hours of break in before they are listenable. Partsconnexion in Canada is a supplier and can build them to your specs with regards to length and connectors. Very reasonabl... | |

| Duelund speaker cable I'm a big fan of Duelund 12 gage speaker cables and use them on both of my systems. However, if you decide to try them, either buy a pair that is fully broken in, or be prepared for them to sound lousy until they reach the 200 hour mark of break... | |
| What's the best EL84 amp? @larryi I have relatively efficient speakers (Altec Model 19's), but feel the large woofers still benefit from moderate to high powered tube amps. What 6L6 based amps do you recommend, assuming a min. of 40 wpc? | |

| Experience with Black Cat and/or Triode lab Wires @jjss49 it's been at least 5 or 6 years since I owned the A23's. I used them for a few years with Harbeth M40.1's and a few tube amps. While the build quality of the A23's is quite good and they have an artisan like feel and look to them, I ... |
