Im going to regret my cable question
Having read so many "do speaker cables matter" threads, reviews, etc., over the years I am going to open up this can of worms again. So here goes.
I would like some opinions on the pairing of my amp, speakers, and a possible upgrade of speaker cables. My kit consists of a Rotel Michi X3, S2 and Monitor Audio Gold 300 G5's.
Would anyone venture a suggestion on what might be a good fit, with a budget of no more than $1200 CND.
I currently have Audioquest Type 4 which are some years old by now. Im looking at AQ Rocket 33 or 44's but I am open to other brands.
Although I understand the "coat hangers work just as well" theory I would prefer only constructive suggestions from those who feel there is a benefit to cable upgrades please.
Cheers.
I'm at a loss as to why discussing cables in a cable thread might derail it, but you may have a point in the sense that perhaps folks in the digital forum are better informed about digital. Maybe.
Do you and whoever penned that comment appreciate art? If so, this piece will fit right in with that world view: https://collections.lacma.org/node/239578

with your budget and your equipment i bet you would just be fine staying in the Audio Quest line of cables and inner connects. They have good stuff at various price points and have exceptional build quality. For sure, if you buy something and dont like it, sure better off than spending $2000 and not being satisfied at the higher price point.

+1 to what @curthuff said. You might be surprised where AudioQuest sources their pure copper conductor from in the upper cable lines, along with some other manufacturers. While it's not public info in general, imo you are close enough if you like AQ, go for it. |
