Speaker jumper cables--a type of sound?


I can't seem to find any reviews/comparisons that focus on sound differences(warm vs.neutral) between various jumpers for speakers. Maybe because the conclusion is really that obvious---that manufacturers' jumper cables sound similar in tone, at least, to their speaker cables. Do any of you mix one brand of speaker cable with a different brand of jumper cable? With what results soundwise? Thanks for any data, insights or impressions.

It makes more difference than you would think. I would go with ones from the same company as the main cables, not necessarily the same size. I have Cardas GRs and their jumper is much smaller but still works well.
Agree with Stanwal.

I used Analysis Plus jumpers as well as the same speaker cable.
Jumpers on an integrated should make a significant (i.e. easily heard, distinct, immediately noticeable, etc.) difference to the sound of the unit.

The difference can be perceptually every bit as dramatic as a pair of speaker cables being changed. In my experience in order to take a system to its highest performance one MUST work with the jumpers (i.e. remove them and find a suitable set for coordination with the system).

I would not typically encourage a person to use stock jumpers. One should not only consider proper jumpers, but also 1 meter lengths of paired interconnects if available. I have had better results from some interconnects acting as jumpers than shorter, dedicated jumpers. I believe the configuration of the cable takes precedence over the length in terms of what is changed in the sound.

Of course, the quality of the system will dictate the degree to which the overall change will be appreciable. But, with good equipment the influence of aftermarket jumpers is not to be ignored.
Jumpers are very important. Get rid of the stock ones immediately. I tried a couple of solid metal ones but found the most neutral and pleasing were ones I made myself from the same cable that I use for my speaker cable.
Humanmedia...If you're referring to me, I am not using stock jumpers, but those made by the same fellow who makes my speaker cable.
