Sorry to start another topic on ruddie speaker cables but I just need a broader aspect just in-case I'm missing something.
I have now chosen my first ever hifi system with the Rotel RA06se and B&W 684s. The thing I missed crucially as it turns out, was my research on speakers cables. Now when I demoed the above, it was as I was told played through QED Evolution XT. Loved the detailing, great bass response and a nice grip too. The thing I wasn't too sure about was after an hour or so, my ears did start to hurt due to brightness, I'm guessing silver cabling and rotel amp is the problem? So, 'hifilover1979' suggest upgrading to QED Revelations but the total for this, 2 meters to each speaker and 8 Airloc plugs is £94(not bi-wired!
Now do I.....
A - Go with what the hifi dealer has offered which is 2 meters to each speaker of Evolution Bi-wire with plugs for £56
B - Or stick with what I heard in the shop, single cabled Evolution and then later on down the line upgrade to Revelation bi-wires?
C - Give me other options to look into to get the best out of my setup within a reasonable budget.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated.
