Open to anyone, with 2 caveats:

1. You can’t join just to get in the karma :p
2. You must use the cables, not add them to your stash. These were in my stash, but I would rather someone use them, especially someone who has never had decent cables. Give them to your girlfriend, child, grandma, co worker, whoever, just make sure they get used! Newbies welcome!

Specs for the cables: https://www.parts-express.com/belkin-pureav-silver-series-speaker-cable-pair-14--109-050

Great build quality, nice SQ improvement over monoprice lampchord monster crappola. It gonna knock down the big boys, but this is a nice intro to what real cables can do in your system.

Pic a number between 1-100, I’ll randomly choose a winner next Friday. I will pay for CONUS shipping, anything else we’ll have to negotiate ;)

If I recall correctly, these were @DSkip’s first real cables. Own a legend!!!

    I may have bought yours, or from someone else on the forum. My first foray into something other than cheapo lamp cord. Definite improvement. Still in use in my TV room with some Boston bookies. In with 58, I'll pass them to my son who I am helping him piece together his HT...

    From what I remember, those have a warm sound so they'd be good with brighter speakers.
