Looking to buy a pair of speaker cables for my mains! Budget is about $300. Has anyone ever used the AVT2's?
Can be had for about $250 a pair right now! Or anything else in this budget? TY

    I've heard the AVT S3's and love them. They can be had for around $200. Try HIFI heaven up in Green Bay, that's where I bought mine from.

    I bought AVT2s recently for my LSi9s - they replaced a pair of Signal Ultras and while they are still breaking in, I'm very happy with them - similar improvements in clarity / dynamics to the Shotgun S3s I got for the KEFs. Purchased them new off of Audiogon for something like $250 or $280.

    Yeah - that's Joe Abrams (Equus Audio). That's who I bought the Shotgun S3s, CVT2 ICs, and AVT2s from. The KEF Q900s sound awesome with the MIT cables!! Seriously... it's worth it.

    ...or tell him your from the great community known as Club Polk where lots of people offer his recommendation.

    Edit: Also with shipping to Canada, it is priced VERY good. I was expecting to pay 3x the price he charged me. Hope my cables make it here before the weekend.

    Bobsauto. Did you get them yet. I know you prob haven't had break in time. Seriously thinking of pulling the trigger on them and didn't want to spend a ton since it is a secondary rig.
