Hello

I'm looking to upgrade my Linn K20 and as the esl are a particular speaker it is difficult to find suggestions for them. I've heard of Magnan and of course Nordost but they are too expensive for me. What would be your suggestions? I'm very open to go the diy route. Max budget would be 300 euros for 2x2m without connectors.
Thanks a lot!

Try the brand new TQ model, the TQ Ultra Blue for only 160 Euros for a 2 metre pair from MCRU which includes free termination with good quality Z plugs.

I have used the TQ Blue which is stunning for the price and this new model promises even better performance

Go over to the Planar asylum and check out replies by kentaja. He may have addressed this already.

If not, post your question and invite him to respond. He builds Quad speakers for a living.

I presume you've looked on line for information.

It is difficult to tell exactly what you are looking for other than you don't want to spend more than USD$400. What is the rest of your system? What speaker cables do you have now? Would you consider used? What do you not like about your present speaker cables and want to improve?

The lack of this information may help explain the lack of responses so far.
