    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.

    Or a pair of AQ CV-8's that come with a bat pack and yes, buy used to save a lot of dough.

    The best thing about buying used is that you can sell them for pretty much what you bought them for and try a different flavor until you find the pair that has the best synergy with your rig. One question for ya' though. What's reasonable to you?

    For some on here, reasonable is 3K.....for others reasonable is $50 smackers.

    Before Jesse suggests these I thought I'd beat him to it.
    Buy one pair of these and they will save you future money because they'll be the last cables you will buy or need.

    +1 for signal cables. Much more open and detailed than the Canare 4S11 I was using and not too bad of a price.
