A B Cable comparison


Anyone compare speaker cables lately? I have a Nordost Blue Heaven Rev II Bi-wire on one side and a Kimber Kable 4TC single wire on the other. Anyone else try this with other wires? Thanks

It's probably negligible but different cables have different capacitance and other characteristics. I would think that by doing this you're presenting two different "loads" to the system which might cause it to function non-optimally and possibly cause damage(?). I'm no engineer so i may be way off base but whether or not you believe in the mystery of cabling, the law of physics still applies.
I did this with Linn Majik 140 speakers and Lipinski L707,s. I sold the Linns because there was enough difference in sound. I decided to keep the Nordost, and sold the Kimber, but again, not much difference between the Kimber single wire and the Nordost Bi-wire. I got the Nordost Blue Heaven for 250.00 so I guess it was an ok deal, since I made a few bucks on the Kimber. One thing I do know. Don't spend much more than that on wires. They won't make that big a difference. I'd replace a component first. Thanks to all.
This is really a new one on me. Onhwy61, you said it! The life of an audiophile indeed! 24 hrs or any amount...
