Got my modest Transparent Plus speaker cable on Saturday. It's hooked up and I'm trying to give them some hours. Using the tuner for that, mostly; only about 4 hours so far. We'll see how much the sound changes over time. I'm giving up 2 AWG by moving to these (the Kimber 12TC was 8 AWG; Plus is 10 AWG) so I hope to hear something that persuades me this wasn't just a lateral move. In the store they did sound a bit smoother than the Kimber, but that was with a warm speaker and different electronics than I have.
