Speaker Cable upgrade

Thanks Yuri. But I was really just feeling mischievous that day and was trying to wind Carl up. I was somewhat disappointed when he did not reply, but sure enough he came through in the end. As usual he substituted invective (now I am an ignoramus) for any semblance of reasoned argument, and continued to make assumptions about me (he can hear better than me and is more open-minded on cable mixing than me). And all this angst is meant to prove his opinions are truth, and others' (in this case mine) are not. Actually Carl I was not offended. I enjoyed every word. I am in two minds whether your latest arguments (accusations) require rebuttal, but don't want this little spat of ours to become tedious for others - so I will withdraw now and let others decide for themselves. My apologies to Kentt for having fun and messing around with your serious question.

The best thing to do about carl_eber postings is to ignore them and don't reply.

Thanks Gerrym5. I am a slow learner, but recognise good advice when I see it.

Fellas, you make just as many blind assumptions about me as you think I make about you. All I am doing is defending my point of view, and it's not angst in the least. Ignore me if you like, but I'm full of insights that you can't possibly imagine...

most of you haven't heard of audio tekne cables but you will. ask lars fredell of ultimate audio and he will tell you they are as close to his favorites,silversmith audio cables,as can be but not as expensive. i replaced cardas golden cross biwires with the audio tekne cables,using 2 pairs,and the difference was nothing short of amazing.i have tubed equiptment,arcvt100 and arc ls-15,as well as a scd-1.i have also heard their interconnects and powercords and they are the best i have ever heard. they are not cheap...$1300 for a 1m pair of rca's and aprox. $500 for the powercords but they are better then the black mamba at that price.the speaker cables just went up in price at hififarm.com, the only us distributor at this point, so i am not sure of the cost. email lars at ultimate audio and ask him about them.
