Has anyone used or using this cable? As far as the 10awg goes, it looks like a pretty decent product and not too badly priced.

    I haven't used that specific cable but I am using KnuKonceptz 14ga. I was skeptical that I would hear a difference over the old 16 ga. wire I was using. Mainly due to my old ears and lack of experience, but it definitely opened up the soundstage. I never had very good high freq. hearing, so can't say about the highs, but the mids and lows are more defined than before.

    But that's just comparing it to cheap wire, can't say how it would be compared to higher quality/price cable, but I am happy with it. I don't much care for their nanners though.

    Check out the Ethereal 14 ga. wire here at AC4L, it looks and reads exactly like the KnuK that I have.

    For budget 10AWG wire, I recommend Blue Jean Cable Ten White.
