Speaker cables - cables make a difference

Happy weekend,

I have some PAD speaker cables I had reconditioned

and burnt in a little. They just opened up this listing session

I just hear that live small group, rock/ folk, Live sound.

its not as deep, and delineating, but you get more the other way.
I like them both. Reminds me of going to a show. Happy Loving

This Hobby.

The cables are not a passive device but an active one that " reacts " to the audio signal passing through it. Your speaker cable matters! 32 speaker cables tested - with measurements! Cables make a difference - and we measured it! Alpha Audio Huge Cable Test and they have too for the interlink cables. Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS, R.

They compete well with cables 2-3 X the cost. Their speaker cables are pretty good but I’ve moved on to Acoustic Zen (purchased used)

Hologram or Satori speaker cables. I wouldn’t bother with couple of hundred dollars retail cables. Might as well use canare 4s11 which aren’t bad at all but not as good as zen

I have yet to get a reasonable response to that. Bias can, and does happen, but I don’t think it’s permanent, and certainly isn’t the answer to every subtle change we struggle to measure meaningfully, yet can still hear with sufficient time on a resolved system that we know well
