A bang for your buck
By Seattle run
We auditioned three sets interconnects with a couple of my audiophile friends. First it was the qed , next was the king cobras and third was the transparent audio. Our system consist of vista i34 tube amp, music hall dac and an MMG Maggie ( Magnepan) and transparent speaker wires. we are also using a flac and wave file from a laptop.1st test was the transparent audio interconnects. The sound is very open and imaging and the depth is deep. A very solid and clear sound but a very expensive set of wires2nd was the kingcobras. The sound is very open also and it's very similar to the transparent interconnects3rd was the qed's.. It sounded flat like there is no character to the music. I was positioned outside the sweet spot and yet I can tell the difference between interconnects.Then we switched back and forth and we can tell the difference between each sets. I'm a true believer that speaker wires and interconnects matters when you're setting up a system. good luck and happy listening

By Deepblue
The answer is yes of course. Unless you have been using cheap audio equipment and somehow got used to listen to all that distortions in the signal and think that's what you are suppose to be listening. Audio cables do make a difference on how good your entire audio system performs and sometimes in a very significant way. I was a non-believer until I actually try it myself. Some people claim that they couldn't hear any difference between a pair of cheap cables and the better ones, that's totally bull crap. It only makes me wonder what kind of sound system they own or maybe they are simply being biased.I have a pair of Kingcobra connected to a HD AM/FM tuner and a pair of $100 speaker cables. They sound much more smoother and focused compare to the original free cables that come with the tuner. I later switch the speaker cables to a pair of Audioquest CV8 (72V DBS) and boy what a huge difference they make! It's almost as if I have upgraded my entire system. Anyway, after the burn-in period is over, the sound stage becomes a little more deeper and extends out farther by about 2 feet from where my left and right speakers are. Vocals and instruments seem to be even more focused and carry more weight (especially in the mid to lower region). But what baffles me the most is that the volume appears to be a little louder after the cable upgrade (probably due to lower noise background.) I could close my eyes and point out exactly where the singer and each piece of instrument is placed as the original recording studio intended. Everything in the music suddenly becomes well, more life like to me. This experience is similar to a person who used to watch standard TV all his life and for the first time being shown a high definition TV. I could tell the difference when I hear music being play back in higher resolution, how about you?

Don't Waste Your Money
By Nothintosay
I thought it was time I upgraded my interconnects and speaker cables . I had read a lot of good things about Audioquest's King Cobra interconnects so I bought two pair . I collect audio equipment so I have quite a bit of stuff here . Right now I'm going with Revel M20s for speakers and I'm pushing them with a Krell KAV250 amp and an Audible Illusions pre- amp . I have a Cal. Audio Labs Cd player . Considering that's roughly $9,000 worth of equipment I would still be considered to be in the lower tier of the high end audio world .I had been using XLO ( not to be confused with xlr-balanced ) interconnects . They're mid priced cables that cost around $ 79 at the time .Anyway , I hooked my King Cobra's up and low and behold as hard as I tried I heard no difference . To really find out if I had just blown a few hundred dollars I played a specific piece of music . Al Stewart's " The Ear Of The Night " . The song is impeccably recorded ..a great acoustic guitar intro with nice tight bass and some snare drum . I played this song over and over switching from the new to old interconnects . No Difference . Nothing . I did the same with a few tracks from the original cd release of Cat Stevens' Tea For The Tillerman , one of the worst recordings I've ever heard . Both cd's sounded exactly the same with both cables and frankly it wouldn't surprise me if I got the same sound from a pair of $10 Radio Shack inters.Don't buy into the hype . Yea , they look cool , and I can brag about having fairly expensive , well respected cables , but they do nothing as far as improving the sound quality of your stereo system goes .
