Soundstring GEN 2 speaker cable.Anyone using them?

But it that case it just doesn't make sense as compared to the 600VA claimed by the manufacturer (see previous calculation, it would be 289,6VA instead).I have asked the question to an official dealer to be sure.My feeling at this stage is that so...
