I bought these last week from Dave (dekuda) knowing that they might not work for my setup. Dave was a GREAT seller, BTW... Here is the original listing:

These are by far the nicest cables I've ever used, but I can't justify keeping them for the following reasons:
  1. The spades are too tight for the very wide binding posts on my Paradigm Studio 40s.
  2. They are a little shorter than I'd like for my location (I'm literally talking 6" too short...) <-- That ought to get some funny comebacks...
  3. My ears can't hear a difference between these and the Cardas Crosslink 1S cables they were to replace. My setup is far from audiophile grade, so they made little, if any, noticeable difference in sound to me.
They are VERY nice cables in great condition - just as I received them last week. I honestly wouldn't mind keeping them, but the Cardas just work better .

I'm looking for a quick sale. I reached out to the other member who Dave said was next in line if I didn't buy them, but I haven't heard from him in two days. So, they are up for grabs.

I'm hoping to break even (minus the cost of shipping one way), so I'll sell them for exactly what I paid:

$106.80 shipped. That amounts to $100 and split the shipping cost. PayPal Friends and Family preferred.

Thanks,
