Audioquest WEL Signature


Any owners of the speaker cable, if so what are your thoughts & what was your previous speaker cable?

I held a head to head shootout of AQ WEL vs Odin I vs SR Galileo LE in my system a few years back. i was replacing Valhalla I at the time.  I use AQ WEL for all my interconnects but in my system the Galileo sounded more integrated and open. The Odin was also nice but a bit tipped up, although maybe faster and cleaner than the Galileo. The AQ just sounded slow to me, but this may have been because of a non ideal installation (the demo cable was biwired so I had to cludge both sets of connectors into my single wire 

I ended up purchasing the Galileo and have since then further gotten improvements from changes to the active bias

Net net you have to demo the cable in your setup against a few others to really tell
@infection sorry if I was it clear. The demo cable was a shotgun biwire set (some $60k+ worth) and my speakers are single terminal so I had to connect together two sets of banana plugs into one set of terminals - not a pretty sight. Anyway just wanted to give the cable the benefit of the doubt if I had not gotten to hear the best of it, at least I know the one I tried was broken in 😏
