Over a year ago I decided to upgrade my Transparent Ultra speaker cables. After bringing home and listening to more speaker cables than I can recall and at many price points my dealer finally got frustrated and said, here take these home, when I saw them I replied, are they over my budget, he replied I don't care. They were the M.I.T Oracles, yah there still here and won't being going back. I have no issue with raising my maximum price ( by three times ) but why is it always the highest price items sound the best? For once I'd like to hear something inexpensive that sounds best, and go home with a bunch of money in my jeans.
