$200 or less 8' Run - Zu WAX, AP, Singal, Others?


Looking for used 8' run of good cable $200 or less for a more modest second system. Not trying to match components specifically (and I know cables are system dependant), except I'd like something detailed and fairly transparent with good mids (I find mids are often a missing link) -- robust lows and sharp highs are less of an issue (think vocals).

Considering AP (have had good luck with AP Oval 9s), Zu Cable WAX (good press) and Signal Cable (straightforward and a nice price reputation -- though I've never tried their speaker cable). Any experience between these

Jeffloistarca, I am supprised with you findings with the WAX. I did a direct comparison with the DH Labs Q-10 & the Zu Julian (lower level than the WAX). The Julian was very similar to the Q-10, but it had better detail for me. I then upgraded from the Julian to the WAX. The WAX was hands down more involving than the Julian. The WAX does have a long break in, but in my tests they were worth the wait.
