Has anyone had any experience with signal speaker cable or their other products? I am considering either their double run biwire or having some made at a local
audio exchange. All that I need to se up my wifes birthday suprise is speaker cable , set of components, toslink, and a couple of anologs. Everything is boxed and hid in basement. harman/kardon 520-- 2 lsi9 front--- lsic center--- 2 rti28s rear---- dvd - pioneer DV 563A -- sony SLV-N700--- in the near future either rotel 1075 or halo52- Thanks for your input

great quality cable there, Rex! buy with confidence! I have Signal Cable's internal biwire speaks, analog two's interconnects, magic power cords. There are at least 10 members here who use SC.
Btw, congrats on the new system, looks like it's going to be an awesome surprise for her...I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie. -
I recently bought their internal bi-wire speaker cables. Frank was great to work with, answered all email promptly, and had my cables to me quicker than I expected. I was really impressed with the quality of build, and the sound is phenominal...of course that could just be the LSi's talking to me
Don't forget to mention you're a Polk Club member and you'll get a 5% discount. -
I rewired my entire 5.1 HT with Signal, and couldn't be happier. I previously used Monster Cable, and the Signal Cable outperforms it in every respect.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

Dorokusai,
By "outperform", are you saying that you can hear an audible difference from your speakers between the Signal cables and the Monster cables? Please elaborate. I have a mix of different cables and I'm trying to figure out if there is a "real world" benefit to upgrading. -
I've heard Doro's system, before and after. Yes, it sounds better with Signal cables. I use to have Monster cables in my set up years ago, I switched to MIT Shotgun's and swear by them. I say upgrade to the highest level you can afford, your ears will thank you.Political Correctness'.........defined

I agree with F1, go for the most expensive you can afford. Cables are a component in itself and have a huge impact on your system.SDA-2a, Anthem Pre-2L, Anthem Amp 1, MF A324 DAC, Rotel RCD1070

Polkthug - Yes, as F1 mentioned, it was noticeable.
Elaborate? Hmm...it was ALOT better? Just kidding. Simply stated, music had more depth, and the bass was tighter and more noticeable. Everything had more weight, perhaps it just finally sounded normal...who knows, but it WAS improved.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers?
