Speaker Cable Survey
 
What brand and model speaker cable are you currently using on your system?
What's it's retail price?
Configuration? (ex., standard, biwire, shotgun etc.)?

Wireworld Gold Eclipse 6.0 Bi-wire.

I'm using an old version Kimber Kable 4TC standard run (bought in 2003). It was ~100 USD for 8' back then. I'm pretty sure this is the weakest link in my system.

Why not? :smoking:

I forgot to mention I run my 4TC bare. Bare wires don't really oxidize here. When they do, I just strip the wire back 1" and I get brand new wires again :thumbsup:

For my application, 30M+ total of speaker cables. The Platinum line is not worth $400K IMHO.

To do my whole System in Platinum Eclipse, the cost would be in excess of $800K retail.
