I ordered two pairs of Anti-Cables for bi-wiring. I have been thinking of experimenting with either the Anti's or the Mapleshade speaker cables. I think what turned me off about the Mapleshade cables was the extra treatment or the double runs of cables. I have also found silver coated copper bright to my ears. The Anti-Cables are the most simple.

I used a pair of Poppa C's solid core cables but I think the limiting factor was the factory jumpers I had. Now that I will have two pair to bi-wire I will not need jumpers. I am expecting the great bass I had with the Poppa C cables.

The Audioquest Slates have become too smooth or I am bored with the smoothness. My stranded pair of bi-wire cables are too thin and miss some of the body of the music.

If I decide these are the cables for me Paul will shotgun a pair and twist them to make them a little more manageable. He does this at a slight upcharge. Then I will have only one pair of spades at the amp end and two at the speaker end. I have no doubt the Krell can handle two spades but I can see where it might make a neater cable run.

When they arrive I will be comparing them with the AQ Slates, AQ GBC stranded bi-wires, AlphaCore Goertz MI1 single wire. I will write a review and post to this thread.
