Best value for the buck speaker cables


Which speaker cables represent the best value to you?

Each person who responds to your post will have their own "best value" predicated on how much money they are willing to spend on speaker cables. I personally believe that high-end speaker cables and interconnects are the biggest single "rip off" in high-end audio, so you know my bias up front. I have owned and listened to a variety of speaker cables over the past 30 years, and I think the best value in speaker cable (price vs. performance) for MOST audiophiles is the Kimber Kable 8TC, with the 4TC close behind. Unless you own stratospherically expensive equipment, the 8TC will get you about 90% of the performance available in speaker cable for a very nominal cost.
I took the advice of J.R. from Audio Connection and purchased the Nordost Super Flatline bi wired set. It seems to work well with my bi-wired Mordaunt Short speakers and Jolida integrated tube amp, but it's a hassle to move around when setting up.
