What speaker cables are most like Speltz cables?


I have been using Speltz Anti-Cables with my speakers for quite some time; I am happy with the sound and have had no urge to change for sonic reasons. However, with a re-arrangement of my system I'd like to use a more flexible cable...and one that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Any suggestions?

I have the Speltz cable and I have Signalcable which doesn't cost an arm and a leg. The Signalcable is on my second system, and the review that I read says that the Signalcable is best if it is used with the power cord along with the speaker cable and maybe the IC's. In other words best if all Signalcable is used from beginning to end and then it is great because of synergy. The review is on signalcables website. I've never really a/b ed them. I probably prefer the Speltz. But I believe signalcable could be the most for your money cable. Morrow is another name--more money.
Mdrummer01, now I'll tell you what I really think which is that cables are such a con. I agree that there are differences in cable. But the reviewer that I refered to might have his own agenda. If he didn't have something significant to say he'd be out of a job, yes? My cable is also mixed. In my second system I have a signalcable power cord, then a Morrow IC, then a signalcable IC, then signalcable speaker cable. It sounds fine. I get emails from Morrow every week and almost every day which are annoying and bogus in their sales pitch. His sales go on endlessly. I never hear from Frank at signalcable unless I ask a question or put in an order. So I like Frank. He is straightforward and down-to-earth and none of his cable costs $500.
I remember a critic saying that he never thought he'd ever hear anything that sounded better than Nordost Red Dawn. But he did of course when Nordost came out with more expensive cable. I bought a Red Dawn IC and signalcable clearly outperforms it. I'm not advocating signalcable or any other cable, but cable doesn't excite me because I know that it is an endless circle. I'm sure some audiophiles enjoy the hunt. I'm also sure Clear Day is fine, Morrow is fine, signalcable is fine. IMHO don't take cable too seriously. There's always another cable over the next hill and then the next hill and the next hill.
