I've tweaked the heck out of about every aspect of my system I can think of with the exception of speaker wires. Lot's of great results with DIY IC's based on different recipes and some of my own including some marvelous sounding IC's using Doc's magic magnet wire but am currently running a couple pair of Heartland Belden 89259 with Eichmann bullets for IC's (couldn't build 'em cheaper than I could buy 'em!).Still have 12g Sound King for the speakers and they're saying, 'We want to be special, too!' so it's time to go with new speaker wires, either purchased or DIY. Which got me thinking, what do the other Bottleheaders like for speaker cables and IC's with our small but mighty tubed amps and high efficiency speakers?
