Help - Cable for High End System - M7s and Block Audio Mono A


My friend is putting together a system and I offered to help him, but at this stage, the budget has grown far above the price points where I have knowledge of components and pairings - I could use some advice.  At this time, we are focused on neutral speaker cables.  These don't have to be end game but enough to get him listening for a long time and not limit the other components.  The speakers are the Magico M7 and the amps are the Block Audio Mono A 200.

Any suggestions in the $5000 to $12000 range for a pair of speaker cables.  The other limitations are that the cables should be flexible (not overly stiff) and not have large modules or boxes in the cable.  Thank you.

I would contact Magico to get their recommendations for this combination.  They can help create a shortlist of candidates based on the owner's sound preferences.

I really like the Silversmith cables. Friend uses sets in his system, ($400k system). I like them enough that I’m also buying a set for my Magico's. Granted not M7's only messily A3's. But I find them exceedingly good for the money. They are a ribbon type no box’s etc.

FIDELIUM SPEAKER & INTERCONNECT CABLES. Thin foil (ribbon) design derived from electromagnetic wave and waveguide physics to minimize skin-effect phase errors. The skin effect properties of FIDELIUM are up to 33 times superior to copper or silver.

After many, many years of cable-auditioning, the cable merry-go-round has stopped with Synergistic Research - upper tier series.  It provides the best SQ for my revealing system.  Now, I just smile when listening.      Excellent customer service!

I think you and he are in the realm of dealer recommendations, and multiple trials/demos to get the sound he is looking for. I assume that is where the speakers and amps came from? 

But one suggestion I can add is he may not need speaker "cables", if he has mono blocks, as long "jumpers" may work, and one can save many thousands by not looping up an extra 2m of unnecessary cable behind the speaker. Don’t think the dealers encourage this though. wink

For example, Nordost Valhalla 2 make a 27" jumper for about $6000 US.
