Looking for really fine cables at really low price

After 12 days with the WE16gauge installed as hook up wire in the b+ and power supply ground, where the sound was changing everyday, the sound is much more natural than the 12guage GE wire it replaced. The tinnyness of the GE is gone, but I am hearing a lack of clarity, a veiled sound in the lower mids that was not there before. Will leave it in for a few more days. I have ordered 3ft of 14guage solid core silver wire to try in the power supply ground. If that sounds good I'll have enough of the silver left to install into the b+.

the Duelund 16g interconnects don't sound fully broken in after 125 hours. Will leave them burning in the back room for another week.

Interesting as clarity is a trait that rates very high with this wire in my system.  System synergy is everything however. Please update us as you learn more! 

I have not tried a shielding the wire as yet for use as ICs. 

For those wanting to try the Duelund wire as interconnect, I suggest waiting until the new small gauge Duelund wire is available early next year.  It should have greater potential than the 16g.  

I have posted a few times that my experiences with WE wire as speaker cable were not successful.  I reached the same conclusion with the Duelund 16g wires.  While the Duelund is clearly better than the WE, it still falls short of what I consider acceptable in terms of resolution, tonal balance and micro-dynamics.  

I decided to give the Duelund a final chance by trying it with Furutech spades rather than with bare ends.  If this causes me to change my opinion on the Duelund, I will post a follow-up comment.  I just ordered the spades so I will take me a couple weeks.

Salectric,
you have been the minority view all throughout the WE16ga and Duelund DCA16ga reviews which generally get rave reviews overwhelmingly. I can only speak for myself, and I find these cables and interconnect to be wonderful.  As the audiophile community is fond of saying, "YMMV"; I encourage audiophiles looking for really excellent cables at a lower price to give them a try. Jeff Day, Jack Roberts (The Beatnik of Dagogo) chose them over $15,000 High Fidelity cables in his system, Jim Smith (guru of "how to get better sound") plus many more credible audiophiles apparently really like this wire. Read Jeff Day review in this month's Positive-feedback. Best, Rob

Rob, you're right, I have been the minority view throughout.  But I find it interesting that my complaints about the WE16 are now acknowledged as the areas where the Duelund improved on the WE.  The majority apparently didn't hear these limitations until they heard the Duelunds.  

My opinion has been the same all along: the WE and Duelund are great values but they are not world-beaters as some people claim.  And my opinion is based on what I hear with my own ears, not what some other hobbyist says on his blog.  Magazine reviewers, ezine writers and bloggers serve a function in that they can introduce others to products they might not hear about otherwise, but when it comes to drawing conclusions about how something sounds I only trust my own ears.
