Cable Asylum: RE: Jw Audio Cryo Nova speaker cable... by kimchee411

Late response, but this is a very good speaker cable at a ridiculous price. Much better than the JPS Superconductor+ Petite that they replaced in my system. Very good clarity, transparency, detail, and extension on both ends. These really opened things up vs. the JPS, like a breath of fresh air. They are illuminating cables, but not bright or hard (my tastes tend toward the warm, relaxed side). I replaced the JW Cryo Nova in my main system with the Audience AU24e and kicked them down to my bedroom system. The only aspect in which they were really outmatched by the $1800 Audience cables was added texture and in turn more realistic timbres. The instruments with the Cryo Nova sound a bit smoothed out by comparison. That said, comparing the two cables that lie at such distant price points really showed what an outstanding value the Cryo Nova are.
