In Reply to: RE: Speaker Cables - Which to Buy? posted by cawson@onetel.com on March 10, 2017 at 09:50:39
My experience is limited to the Ply 3.4, Rondo 2.5 and the 2.5 Classic. All easily punch above their respective price points. All can be sourced from Madisound here in the U.S. They also feature two different Quadrax versions that are terminated. Since all of these are manufactured in Sweden, I'm sure they'd be easy to find in Europe as well. I wouldn't get too hung up price vs. performance either. Many here and at Audiocircle have ended up prefering less expensive speaker cables such as the Duelund or WE #16 to the $1000 plus cables they had been using. All system dependant of course.

I agree. There's a lot of rubbish peddled by exotic cable vendors, mostly for their own unwarranted profits, but possibly more to encourage their dealers to sing the praises of grossly and unnecessarily over-priced cables - and other audio accessories for that matter.
I did have some Supra cables years ago, probably their first ones - 2.5 or 4.0 Classic I suspect. They were nicely flexible but I was persuaded to upgrade to Chord Odyssey. I'd always like to see and handle cables before purchase as how they connect to the amp and lay across the floor are important factors. The nearest Supra dealer is about 80 miles away so I'll try to visit when I going in their direction. However I would be prepared to pay a higher price if I can be convinced they'd be better. I don't want to lose any of the potential quality from £25K worth of kit.
