In my system, the inexpensive Signal Cable copper speaker cable outperformed both the Wax and the Q-10. The music was far more engaging with the Signal Cable than with either of the other two, both of which made the music sound sluggish and veiled by comparison. My wife and two other listeners present during our A/B tests were also of the same opinion. We are currenly using Analysis Plus Silver Oval cables, and they are excellent. As always, YMMV.
Speaker Cable to Replace Zu Cable Wax
Hi All,
A purchase of new speakers means I must replace my Zu Cable Wax Biwire speaker cables to a single-wire cable. If possible I would also like to 'upgrade' at the same time. I would like to know what you suggest I look at. The charachteristics I seek are detail, accuracy, with a touch of warmth (nothing over anayltical or bright).
I was thinking about the following:
- Cardas Neutral Reference
- Kimber Monocle XL
- Zu Cable Libtec
- Analysis Plus Solo 8
Anyone had experience with these, and perhaps compared them to the Zu Cable Wax? Anything else you suggest I add to the audition list? Budget is around $500-$700, used or new, 6-8ft single wire. It is purely for a hi-end audio system, no HT.
Thanks,
X
