Jax2 you a right in a way. Well, since I was just stating my opinion it really isn't a matter of being right or wrong. It's just my opinion. But i also asked for a cable not being warm. Isnt that an easy q to answer ? No, it is not an easy question to answer without knowing what amp and speakers you are using. As Rsbeck implies, different cables will interact in different ways with different systems. These differences may be quite pronounced, for instance if you are using them in a tube based system vs. a SS system, or they could be quite subtle. Marco |
Rsbeck you are a rude person ! I did not find his comments "rude" in any way at all. They may have been pointed, but they were quite astute and to the point IMO, and actually, you may find them to be quite helpful in subsequent responses if you get any. Speaker cables are very system dependent and listing the rest of your system may get you more informed responses, espcially amp and speakers. It is quite odd that folks may recommend speaker cables without knowing the rest of your system. I guess they're just sharing what worked for them, but that is of little help if their systems do not resemble yours in some way shape or form. Marco |
The best way to figure this one out is to audition the cables in question in your own system, your own room, and most important with your own ears. I believe The Cable Company offers trial periods on their products where all you'd need is a credit card to try out the cables you are interested in, and return them if they do not suit your needs. You may also have a local dealer who would offer you the same courtesy. The only drawback may be the lack of burn-in. I believe the Cable Company does burn-in their cables. They also cary the Mont Blanc and the Volcano you seem intent on. You can have some fun trying out different cables and report back here when you have come to your own conclusions. Good luck! Marco |
I can deal with being thought of as inapproproate.
What could be more appropriate than a green clay live action cartoon figure that moonlights as a Photoshop master?! It's what you do to that poor pony, Pokey that is inapproriate! But he ain't talkin' is he? He's too scared, and frankly, I don't blame him! Marco |
You see GristledPorkchop; and you thought Rsbeck was rude?! You ain't seen
nuthin' till you incite the wrath of the green man! You wanna' end up like the
poor pony? Just keep on creating more threads about the same subject and
pointing your bony finger at everyone trying to help you out. The clay boy'll
be on your derriere like flies on a meadow muffin! What was it that Pokey
did...it's been so long, I always forget. I think he kept asking after some
preamp shootout results. Seems like he started three, maybe four different
threads asking the very same question in each one. Wasn't making any
friends till the green man took notice. Now he's got a special friend every
night!

The candy may taste sweet, but you've gotta pick it up from the floor when ol'
Goombah drops it casually, with that innocent expression on his sloped face.
I'm tellin' you now, don't bend down to pick up the candy. Make haste outta'
here while you still have the chance...that is unless you wanna be heretofore
know as "Throbbing Gristle"! I say run boy, run! It ain't just the
voices that's gonna' be coming forward towards you! Michael Jackson ain't
got nuthin' on the Green Man!

Hey, I got a lovely email from the husband of the Swedish lady myself! Said
the same thing as he did to ol' Gumby, but added that I was a "Douchebag"
(how ever did he know?!). Guess he couldn't think of anything more original
to say. Definitely no hard feeling Motts ol' pal. We're just yankin' your crank
to have some fun and blow off some steam.
As the good green fellow said, cables should be one of your final
considerations in your system for sure. As far as his experiences with those
specific cables are concerned (and anyone elses with specific cables), you
should also consider carefully the system he was using them with (see his
"System" page), and how close it is to what you are using. By the
way, if you are abroad, I believe the Cable Company (the link I gave you in an
earlier post here) does extend its lending library to international customers.
That'd still be my suggestion to you. Either that, or purchase cables used at a
price you can resell them for in order to try them out in your own system.
Again, have fun! And do look into that upgrade Dean suggested in your
sense of humor. Something that brings it a bit more forward preferably.

But you're gonna have to make room for your green slant-headed pal, because I was called a douche bag too! That does it! I know Gunbei, and you sir ar no Gunbei! And Gunbei is no douchebag. He's Gumby, DAMMIT! Marco |
Marco and I wear our Douchebag emblems with pride, so anyone can identify us at great distances. My "Douchebag" emblem fell off Dean. I haven't had time to sew it back on, therefore I always have to introduce myself as a douchebag so people will know. Sometimes they just figure it out themselves. Once I was incorrectly identified as a scumbag, but I corrected the MF. Have you been to Miami before Grisslehamn? That's quite a change from Sweden. Heck, just pretty much anywhere in the U.S.A. would be quite a change from Sweden. What ever would want to make you move here, especially with what's going on in the world these days? Marco |
