speaker cable upgrade

[iceman16]

I suggest try some MIT cables from audio-cinema.co.uk and ask for Marcus. He's a nice guy to deal with and I think they have cables within your budget. Im NOT in any way connected with this dealer but just had a good experience with them. They also accept part exchange afaik.

Ever tried a pair of Kimber 8TC?

Yes, but with a Nait 5. Is not a cable for a Naim, don´t know about the Densen, might work, is a fine cable. Naim works with Naca 5

I use Van Damme Professional Blue Studio Grade - 4mm. Very pleased with that. Good recommendations (Abbey Road Studio), didn't have to sell my old amp to buy it. They do what cables are supposed to do: let the signal pass through.

Those two options need not be mutually exclusive. Sometimes I enjoy music and sometimes I play with the toys.

We all have two options on this hobby: Or we listen music, or we listen Hi Fi! So, I prefer to forget the cables and buy some music!

As CnoEvil said to me, the AQ are just fine!

Next months I´m buying more music and just sit back and enjoy the music!

I see that you have AQ Type 4 speaker cables. These was my previous speaker cables, I have trade it for the Midnight. Good cales, but the Midnight are even much better!

AQ T4 is good enough for my budget setup I reckon. With better speakers I would suffer from cable upgraditis. *wink*

B&W CM 1 are not exactly a budget speaker!

My general impressions are everyhting that is less than £1000 per component (and per speaker unit) is in the budget - starter Hi-Fi kit.

Integrated amplifier + Speakers + Source + Accessories = £5000. From that point on High-Fidelity begins and goes up to £100,000 per component where High-End continues*.
