Would You Rent Cables To Try Before Buyi


What I am asking is, would you pay to rent a cable that you were thinking of buying, so you could try it in your system before committing at your dealer.I know I have purchased cables without hearing them and was diappointed. I could use some feedback. Thank's Dave.

I had a good experience and got excellent results by going through the Cable Co., also known as Fatwyre. I auditioned 3 brands of ICs and 3 speaker cables. They charge about 5% of the cable cost to try them. You do need to be sure that you're actually ready to purchase wire if you do this , because if not you've wasted your money. It was definitely worth it to me; the cable Co. guys know their wire and represent about 60 brands. I ended up with mid-priced Synergistic Research ICs and cables-- which is what they recommended. But I liked being able to compare it to other major brands.
