I found the bested the garden hose MIT T2 biwires I had before. Takes two pairs to do it. I have had the chance to play with (while helping a friend break in audition cables) Nordost SPMs, some JPS Lab's, Cardas, and the SPM's were the best to me. Not saying these Mapleshades are close, I have no idea, but they just blew me away, not leaving me wanting in the speaker cable dept. Yeah, there's probably a handful of other choices that would have been great in some regard or another. On the downside, they may not be for folks with pets and kids. They don't want to be repeatedly hooked up, un-hooked, hooked up..... unless you get some terminations on them. Mine have cat hair all over them from tails passing under them. Mine also get bounced around a bit as they are very springy - they are totally suspended by themselves between amp and speaker. Again, the cats.... Love the green and gold insulators - very festive looking. Think Mardi Gras!!!
