Replacing Virtual Dynamic speaker cables

I have been using the Revelation speaker cables for a few years and I do like them. They were very expensive new, but good value second hand. I found them to have nice detail, a little tipped up in the base, but very clean and well, dynamic.

So why do I want to change them? Well, they are so heavy and stiff, I find them a nightmare to connect and dress. There is'nt much room behind my system. Very good for beating a burglar, mind you, not so good for day to day use.

I have no prejudices, any suggestions for a comparable quality cable, up to 2000 dollars used for 6 to 8ft, single wired, good detail, dynamic, but not edgy. Thanks

I just sold a pair of Analysis Plus Crystal Oval 8 speaker cables that reminded me of the Virtual Dynamics Revelations cables I used years ago. Both have very good tonality, bass and presented a soundstage that was too forward for my tastes.

I know many enjoy that clear, 'front row' perspective, but I prefer a more laid-back, relaxed presentation, hence the sale. If you liked Virtual Dynamics, I bet you would enjoy Analysis Plus cables.

I remember well how stiff those VD cables were......they snapped the Cardas binding post right off one of my Jeff Rowland Model 6 monoblocks!!!
