Pubul57: Thanks for pointing out what i've been trying to tell people for a long time now. I just get tired of repeating the same mantra over and over : )
Due to the geometry that the flat series of Alpha-Core Goertz cabling uses, the impedance that they present should be an ideal match for such an installation. As far as i know, they offer the best power transfer characteristics over the widest frequency range of any cable on the market. As such, high frequency response should be improved and transient energy should be increased. On top of that, they typically bring a certain "natural" or "musical" presentation to a decent system.
Whether or not an end user likes the sound of the system with Goertz boils down to personal preference. If it sounds bad to you, don't blame the Alpha-Core's for what you're hearing. These speaker cables are simply letting you hear what your components really sound like. Sean

PS... One could go the other route and purposely introduce cable colourations into the system trying to band-aid the situation. If such is the case, the use of something along the lines of Nordost might give you what you're looking for. Whether or not you can live with that type of sound in the long run is obviously up to personal preference.
