I’m starting this again in the hope nobody posts any horrible, smart Alec comments. Please just post positive stuff.
incidentally I just put the chords back and the difference this makes to soundstage, bass response, extra detail, and dynamics is quite big.
blacsabbath commented that audioquest rocket 33 was better than atlas hyper and I’m inclined to think if I tried it I’d agree.
just got sent the speaker cable and this atlas hyper 2.0 is quite nice. I can recommend it if you want to round the system off with a neutral smooth sound. I’ve tried it before with earlier speakers and it wasn’t great and a bit flat but the speakers were quite a bit smoother.
I thought I’d give it a go as the power cables were making things very transparent but I decided not to go ahead with the Helios power cables on my power amps, so I think this is going back. I now need a better longer power cable that fits my steamer as the Helios on my streamer is nice.
I think this just goes to show that speaker wires can be suited to different hi Fi’s. They may sound rubbish on one but not another. The chord epic reference is a bit more sparkly with the hi frequencies and you get more lispiness to voices and the soundstage of the music is overall bigger and wider with more space around instruments and the vocal, listening to Julie Byrne at the moment. Also the chord is better with the bass, so I will definitely be keeping it. It’s a fantastic speaker cable.
Id be interested in others experiences to draw some parallels on speaker wires.
