Up for grabs are a pair of Tice audio 416 speaker cables these have all spades. The bad, one of these has the end of the spade broke off due to my using both extreme force and stupidity a bad combination :p these spades are huge and so I decided to bend the ends a little to get a better connection on my amp well they only bend so far, the pics should show the tool marks. These are very stiff cables to say the least they are solid core 14 gauge so be prepared to fight them to get them where you want them :D

The good, The one end can be de soldered and replaced. These sounded wonderful to me until I broke them :( These were originally in 1996 $725.00 retail cables but can be had due to the damage for the princely sum of $100.00 + shipping.

Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    If your not sure whether cables make a difference try these, the difference between these and most is not subtle :)

    Yes they are 8 feet. And im here to tell you these are vastly superior to anything I personally have ever heard. Im certain of course that there is likely much better sounding cables but id be willing to bet that your not going to find them for $100.00 I have several sets of Signal cables etc and none even come close for sound quality for whatever that may be worth.

    Well I have them packed up and will ship in the morning. If somene doubted cables make a difference if they were here when I unhooked these and hooked up some standard 18 gauge speaker wire theu would change their mind, the bass just went away, even a deaf man could hear the difference. I have never heard such a huge difference in my life with speaker cables before, usally there is some slight change but not to this exent.
