Most transparent open & dynamic cables out there?


Hi, my system currently consists of entire Classe Omega set up including the monoblocks and Tannoy Kingdom 15 speakers. Tannoys are great, powerful and monumental, with tons of bass but they are rather slow and heavy sounding with rolled off highs, even driven by almost perfect amps like Omega. They also don't respond well to either jumpers or true biwiring - it slows the sound even further. So what I'm looking for is classi bi-wired cable to open the sound a bit with great speed and dynamics and tight punchy bass. Thanx!

Transparent Cable is a sonic match for Classe' products.

I especially like Stage III Concepts power cords.
Yes, but Transparent is meant to be used with Classe/B&W combo and Tannoy is VERY different sounding to B&W! The highs are rolled off big time compared to B&W (I had 802D and 800 Diamond before so I know their sound real well).
I would look for a different solution. You're asking the cables to do too much here.
I agree with Zd 100%.

Your speakers provide three different sets of adjustments for fine tuning their high frequency response. Have you tried all possible combinations of settings?

I would expect that those adjustment provisions would have much greater impact on high frequency rolloff and perceived speed than a change between any reasonably designed cables would provide. If they don't solve the problem, or at least come close to solving it, something other than cables needs to be addressed.

For the ones I have heard: Gabriel Gold Rapture R or Stealth Hybrid. You would require 2 sets of each for biwire. You might consider Antipodes Kamako....a little faster and ok for Classe....I find classe a little thin, dark and slow. I am using MG Audio Planus III and am really impressed but they aren't suited for biwiring.....you could call Greg there just to check, they are great to work with.
That said, you might want to see what Steve at Gabriel has in stock.....I have a nine foot pair of Rapture R you might talk me out of.
What cables and DAC are you using now?

Cables is a possible solution including PCs from my experience.
I say a bi-wire Taralabs omega gold speaker cables surely fits the bill of the sound you are looking for!
Nordost cables are very fast and lean in the mids. I think this would help for syrupy bass, but you need to find out why you are losing highs.
How much money you want to spend? I owned the Nordost Valhalla for 12 years of time. Wenn they came out for many years they were the fastest and best in speed. My new Audioquest Redwood 2013 model is even faster and in all other parts were you Judge a cable for superior!!
The difference between Transparent and Audioquest with dbs72 is timing and blacks. The Transparent do not have the blacks of the new Audioquest cables. Also in timing Audioquest is better. It is that simple. I am always looking for the best, the rest is not good enough for me.
I don't care about a brand, if another brand has a better product this will be the new refference. It is that simple! So keep it simple!
