 Thinking about replacing my Kimber 8TC speaker cables with Audience AU24e cables. I have an Ayre 150 watt amp driving my Dynaudio C2 speakers. These speakers are a 4 ohm load and I'm concerned that the thin Audience AU24e may not provide enough current. Is this something that I should be worried about or does it even matter?

 I am presently using Audience AU24e speaker cables between my VAC PA100/100 and Thiel CS2.4 that stay a little below 4ohms for most of the audio spectrum. No issues at all just excellent sound. I have also listened to a system with Ayre MX-R amps driving both Maggie 20.7 or KEF Blades with the Audience AU24e speaker cables and both configurations sounded excellent.

 Thanks! for sharing- Rick.
yours is the 1st report on using Audience cabling w/Thiel loudspeakers.
Additionally, it is good to learn that VAC gear is a sonic match on Thiel
as well. The CS 2.4 is a very fine loudspeaker and my reference!
