Crimson Speaker Cables?


Bought a pair of balanced Crimson ICs about a month ago here on the 'gon out of curiosity. It turns out that I like them a lot.

Used, these are a real bargain but even new they are NOT in the mega-buck category.

Now I'm thinking of giving the speaker cables a shot.
Does anyone here use these? If so, would appreciate your thoughts and opinions, good or bad.

I use the Crimson interconnects and speaker cables. They simply are the best cables I've had in my system. They replaced my Kimber Kable Selects and My Nordost Tyrs.

It will sound like you bought new speakers

Really? That must be one damn fine pair of cables.

It a bold statement, yes; but I was blown away when I added them to my Dynaudio Special 25's. They replaced Harmonic Tech Pro 9's, which weren't too shabby. The difference was night and day, far more dynamic, with amazing prat and sound stage. They really are worth several times there price.

IMO: These ICs perform way above their cost. As I said earlier, I'm very happy with the the ICs.

Now I'm seriously considering the speaker cables. One thing though, I don't want bananas which they show on their site.
Does anyone know if they are available with spades? Also, how about bi-wire?

I originally had my speaker cable run as a bi-wired configuration. IMO, the Crimsons are a ridiculously good cable at a price which is a fraction of many others (which don't sound as good).
