    As some of you might know, I do know a thing or two about cables

    I really don't know what made me do it as I have more than enough wires to play with already, but I instantly needed a 2 metre pair so I bought these off ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...ht_3672wt_1139

    Belkin Pure AV Silver Series interconnects for a massive fiver a pair delivered.

    For a mere fiver you get some great sounds and beats by a country mile many costing upwards of £100 and probably more. Most cables play with the audible spectrum so they either have a bass emphasis or a treble emphasis giving the proverbial "bright" or "warm" tonalities, but these cables demonstrate neither trait. Sparkling top end with excellent retrieval of details, clear midrange and a bottom end with plenty of weight, yet remaining taut.

    There have been many "flavours of the month" cables which I have tried and been singularly unimpressed with, but these are a true revelation - they even made Bruce Windscreen sound listenable.

    Hi Frank, looks very interesting indeed I can't work out how come they are so cheap, you couldn't buy the plugs for that money Talking about the plugs, i like the fact the centre pin is split to give a more solid contact...

    Think i'll have to try out a pair myself, cheers for the link matey Very much appreciated

    Free postage as well, must be from the same job lot as the PF30 and PF40 units? Ordered 1 myself, the seller must have got them for free!

    The plugs are enclosed in a plastic moulding so they won't be worth much once you have hacked them off.
