Review: Ridge Street Audio Poiema Sp.Cables and Interconnects Speaker cable


Category: Cables

This review is based on comparisons I have made listening to the music I enjoy and find important to me.
I tend to listen to mostly Piano Jazz,Female Jazz singers and some layback jazz guitar. My music system has been put together over many upgrades ( 40 years of them ) and until the last few years I never really new how good a home system could sound and have the ability to calm nerves. During this review period I used some of my favorite artists. Karen Allison , " In Blue" and "Ballads",Teirney Sutton "Something Cool",Patricia Barber "Night Club"and all of the "Fourplay" cds .
My system before changes sounded very detailed,very smooth, and very balanced if "maybe" a times a touch polite. Upon inserting my new wires the first thing I noticed was much better pace,but the midrange seemed to be struggling to come out of the enclosure.I got a little frustrated and called the Ridge Street and was assured that time would cure all. Well after about 10-15 hours it finally blossemed. Bass was more defined,midrange opened up like never before and the highs had much more refinement. Somehow these cables can throw out more detail without any edge or thinnnes . The pace of my system now is much better and seems to be more lively than before and was exactly what it needed. All in all this was the best wire upgrade I could imagine.These cables improved my system all around . Quite a bargain for the asking price!

To my experience, good cables can improve anything they are hooked up to - and the difference is immediately discernable.
