due to my wife complaining my system is "too detailed," I switched back to my old Sonoran Signature speaker cables, which is the original version with accordian-like jacket. As I understand it, it's a solid core copper design with some proprietary damping "gel" and Heavy shielding.Wow, I've been neglecting this cable due to a myriad of silver, ribbons, "newer" techniques, etc, etc. But it was like going back old-home meshed potatoes and meat loaf. There's just something out simple solid-core copper that brings out the "meat" and harmonics through the midrange correctly. Sure I've heard and made cables that has more apparent "speed" and extension, but the Sonorans sure sounds fulfilling and completely killed my upgraditis at the moment.
By the way, has anyone listened to newer Sonoran "Plateau" speakers and how they compare to the older design?
