I've been wanting to try these Anti-cable speaker cables for awhile. I'm naturally a skeptic. They are so inexpensive and they look cheap too. Hard to imagine them beating out my tried and true PNF Symphony speaker cable. The only reason I'm trying them is because there is a possibility that they could sound great in my rig. Or Not. I'm curious to find out. Seems like people love them or hate them.

I'm looking to buy a used pair 7 or 8 feet long.

Thanks!

    Try these guys. I bought my Shunyata power conditioner and power cables from them new, and they gave a discount versus other online vendors. I didn't try their used store, but their sales rep talked it up.

    This is a bit off topic but for some reason the idea of a product named Anti-cables had me imagining a "futuristic" system that had "absolutely NO cables anywhere in it. Where all signals were transmitted wireless (what do you think that would do for "cable" sales and debates, lol). Is this a future that is coming?

    Well enough daydreaming. Sorry to intrude.

    I use anti cable throughout my system. They are excellent. Just go to their website and read the reviews. My experience is consistent with the reviews.
