I have a pair of 8' silver speaker cables and a single 6' silver speaker cable that I bought from our very own Ben back in January of this year. These cables are nicely detailed and have a nice smooth sound to them. A few months ago I bought a pair of Audioquest CV-8 36V cables and as a result these have been sitting unused and are needing a new home.

8' pair - rated 9/10 condition and are really like new. $130 shipped - SOLD!

6' single - rated 8/10 condition. The mesh jacket is bunching up a little bit on one end for some reason, but otherwise these are in like-new condition. - $45 shipped - SOLD!

Paypal preferred and I'll eat the fee. These are some very nice cables and will make a nice upgrade for someone that wants to see what silvers sound like in their system.

    Copied from an old post of mine....
    "Just to let you guys know what I am using for wire. It is 16ga silver plated Teflon insulated. 2 16ga equals 1 13ga wire. I also have 14ga silver plated wire... 2 14ga equals 1 11ga wire. My friend used to come over and tease me about being like Monk (TV show). She used to pick on me for trying all kinds of different wires, tweeters, caps... you get the picture. Well anyway I have found 12ga finely stranded wire, and most inexpensive wires sucked the life out of the highs, and sound stage. I have used the AQ CV4's with DBS for the highs before ($475 8 footers), and I like the silvers just as much. Silver just seems to have a very fast tight bass, accurate mids and highs, and carry a full sound stage much better than the coppers. I also have the regular AQ Type 4's (non DBS $200 a pair 8 footers), and the silvers are definitely better on the highs, and mids than them. The AQ's (both types I have used) have been great on the instant bass slam. I hope this comparison helps you get an idea of what they sound like."

    Thanks Ben. Yeah, I'm not sure what's up with the mesh bunching up, but I think the pictures make it look a bit worse than it really is. It was not something that I paid much attention to until it was time to photo them.
