Alon triwire cable


Can someone suggest an alternative to black orpheus triwire to support a pair of Alan lotus speakers. I am going to need about 15 feet, and would not mind buying a used product that does not break the bank.

Like Jcass, I also use DH Labs for my Alon V MkII's. I have two separate 15 foot runs of Q10, one for bass and one for mids, and a run of T14 for highs. There are similarities with black orpheus, in that the DH Labs also use silver coated copper wire, but the shielding and configuration are different. I originally purchased these as an economical alternative to black orpheus, but they sound good and seem to have kept up with my other upgrades. I have recently been thinking about how other cables might improve the sound, including tri wire runs of black orpheus, kimber 8TC/4TC, Silver Lace (more expensive) and others. The DH Labs might be a good place to start since you could use two runs, a Q10 to woofer and a Q10 used as an internal biwire for mids and HF, then upgrade with another run later.
