    Mike, he has MIT speaker cables for sale. Signal Analog II's are interconnects.

    If you want to compare Analog II's to MIT Shotgun I/C's or MIT AVt I/C's, the Analog II's aren't a bad cable and are a little warmer if you're looking to tone things down, but the MIT's are still a better cable IMO.

    I've tried both MIT's and Signal's I/C's and speaker cables, so we don't derail Doro's thread any further, you can PM me if you have any questions.

    Oh right I was thinking Ultras. Doro understood the question anyways.

    I live and die by Signal Cable, but I feel cables are my next upgrade fetish. Don't tell Frank.

    Quick question AVT S2 doesn't appear on MIT's website but AVT 2 does. I also noticed the Shotguns are marked with S2 mars. Do your cables have the stabilizing technology of the shotguns? Either way I want them.

    Sorry for the late reply, yes they are available.

    The AVT 2 is the same thing as the S2....the S2 is only on the packaging. The website doesn't talk about that feature, so I'm not sure.

    You still live at the same place?

    Doro, is there some way that you are monitoring who visits this thread and when? Because that last comment made me think that you can see the 10 times I visit this thread every other day, waiting to pull the trigger on something. Your prices amaze me and I was about to bit on those Type 4's to test them, but found a pair of 9 ft. Signal Ultra Bi-wires for an unbelievable price and, alas, had to go the economical route. Being a college student in bad economic times really blows, otherwise I would have bought those Crosslinks in a second. Always wanted to try them in my setup.

    For those with some money to spend, I have heard those Crosslinks first-hand and anyone looking for some quality cables should pick those up. And then give em to me:D

    LOL, I wish I could but no. I'm just pleased that you found something, regardless of whether you got it here. Enjoy! That's a great pair of cables.

    What's that pipe coming out of the bottom? Is that where the toilet flushes?

    Gary - No problem, thanks for picking them up. I'll ship them ASAP.

    I still have some Cardas and Better Cables laying around, packed up, ready to roll thru your door in the hands of an angry wife or girlfriend.

    Thanks Madden, but I knew that. I was just saying jokingly that I VIEW the page so often that I couldn't tell if he could see how many times a particular member viewed the page. Obviously, he can't, but you see what I was saying.

    Got an issue?;) I've got some great deals and love the Adcom sound. If you remember you sold me the 7400. There's been some local influence also but it is what it is.

    P.S.

    I'll be throwing in an Adcom GFS-3 really soon!!

    I keep telling you Doro, make me an offer I can't refuse. What's left is the BetterCables biwired against my Signal Ultras biwired. You tell me.

    That's a tough call as I believe they use the same Belden core. I'd stick with what you have since wouldn't be night and day.

    Anyone need some Better Cables?....I'll even throw in a Polk lanyard with the purchase. Why use lamp cord when you don't have to?
