Signal Cable -- High End Generic?

Cable comparisons and strengths are system dependant. Silver Resolutions sound immaculate and incredible on one of my systems, but may not be right for someone else. Claims about good quality, reasonably low cost cables trouncing each other is a bit off base in my opinion. Signal cable is popular for good reason: Frank makes a great product and offers very good customer service. Compared to most everything (here I am not claiming "everything" just "most") at the same price point, his products are very hard to beat. Are they the best for your system? That is something only you can tell us.

In short, if we're all talking about great value at a great price, then pick the cables that are best for your system -- signal or otherwise.

I've A/Bd Signal against some great and very pricey cables and think their detail, spaciousness and transparency are incredible (Analogue IIs are good but the Silver Resolutions are great). FWIW: I moved to all Signal Cable in one of my systems and it made great improvements and I wouldn't change a thing.

I love the Silver Resolution line. I have an all Siver Res. set up on my second system (including the speaker cables) and the sound is very holographic. I use his Magic Power cord on my amp, and his HC Digital Magic Power cord on my CD. It brought my older speakers back to life and is very detailed sounding.

Re: the speaker cables. I venture that these cables are a great match for most systems. They are detailed, transparent, and very holographic. The only exception on a good match might be if you have a bright and forward system, in which case these may not be the best choice. I find them to be very detailed and crystaline, which might not sit well in a system where you're already pushing the envelope on the front end. This is not to say they suffer from the "brightness" found in some silver. In my opinion they are very reasonable on this front. The bass on the Version II's (the only ones he sells now) is nice, focused, and tight -- not boomy but not as pronounced as a fat copper cable. So, if you need a lot more bass in your system you may not want to go with silver cables unless they are hybrids (with some copper, like the Version II of the Silver Resolution). I think these are one of the top "bang for the buck" cables out there. Hook them up compared to what you have right now and you will surely be blown away. Again, these did a great job of bringing older speakers I was thinking of replacing "back to life."
