I just received a pair of Reality Cable speaker wires. I've been bouncing through some speaker cables trying to find the right ones. It seems that most cables do something good that makes you want that sound, but then they do something bad that makes you move on.
Until today, my favorite overall speaker cables are the ones I made using Belden 10awg wire terminated with locking bananas. I've only been listening to the RC's for just over and hour now and they really sound fantastic. The more tracks I listen to, the more I realize just what these cables are doing.
They sound very balanced across the entire audio spectrum, not increasing or decreasing the treble, midrange, or bass. They are very clear sounding which has increased the transparency of my setup. The imaging is much more precise and there is more separation. One thing that I really notice is that I don't have to strain to hear even the smallest details and they throw nothing in my face. Amazing...
It took a long time for me to pull the trigger on what I thought would be my dream cables. When I got them last week, they just didn't work at all. They did some things better that made me want to continue my search. I decided after reading this thread that I should give Reality Cables a try. I contacted Gregg, who is a very cool guy and great to deal with. Right now, I think that's the best thing I've done in while.
