I'm looking to get my first pari of hi fi speaker cables. I'm looking for AVT3 or better. Or if someone has a pair of MIT cables they wouldn't mind lending out that would be great to as I really would to see if I can tell the difference with cables.
If life had more tubes it would be a lot smoother.

    It is a hemi and I know MIT has some cables that cost as much as a new car but I'm going to pass on that offer :)

    I think the hemi is intrinsically worth more than even the crazy priced cables, but the MIT's sure do sound nice. Actually, a hot-cammed V-8 sound pretty darn good too! :D

    I had '69 Roadrunner's and '69 GTX's when I was young, 2 with 383 Magnum's, 1 with a 440 and 1 with a 426 hemi. I had no idea how much I would miss those cars (or how much they would becopme worth) when I sold my last one and switched to a Volkswagon Rabbit during the mid '70's fuel crisis years.

    Are you anywhere around Ohio?

    You too huh, I had 2 roadrunners one with a 383 and the other with a 440 red and blue :) I rememember looking at a purple Superbird convertible with the 426 hemi that a fellow was trying to sell for 3k and thinking wow that is just way too much at the time, Wish I had bought it now :p



    REGARDS SNOW
    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    Nope I'm in MD. My dad's first car was a 69 charger. He soled it and then about 20 years he wanted it agin. So we found and restored a car the be the same as his first one except we put a 440 in it instead of a 318. I costed more the second time around for him to get the car.

    Then both of you guys know there's nothing like the feeling of a big block V-8 pinning you into the seat with the odor of scorched rubber, a little bit of oil and some unburned gasoline in the air :D
