Straight Wire is still around in the Chicagoland area. The website is very outdated but their product performs very well with excellent build quality and reasonable pricing. While I do not know what the dealer network in other areas represents, I can tell you that in the Chicagoland area you will not find a single dealer that carries the same brand of wire as another (with the exception of Monster and Audioquest - big box retailers). Take a look at this web site... www.straightwire.de Why it is not used here is a mystery to me.
Whatever happened to Straight Wire?
Hi
It seems like Straight Wire is moving towards obscurity.For the past 10 years i haven't heard anything about any new products (Crescendo cable came out over 10 years ago and i rewired my system with it),they do not advertise and i haven't seen their cables on display in any high end stores around NY area.I hope everything is well with the company because it was their Crescendo cables that gave me a decade of sonic bliss.
