Sony XB930E cd player
Beresford 7520 DAC
Rotel RA06 amplifier
B&W 602 S3 speakers
Mark Grant Digital Coax cable belden 1694a?
Mark Grant Canare LV61S rca cables
Unknown speaker cable OFC 12 gauge
Atacama SE20 speaker stands
Apollo equipment stand
Belkin PF30 power conditioner


I recently changed my speaker stands from Atacama Nexus 7 (70cm) to Atacama SE20 (50cm) due to the speakers being to high, the tweeter was around 25-30cm higher than my ear. Can certainly here more of the high stuff now.

The next thing I'm looking to change is the speaker cables, Im looking at the Van Damme Hifi range
link (http://www.van-damme.com/25.html) Any thoughts?


Thanks for looking!

Hi Gareth - welcome to AoS from me :wave:

Haven't tried the Van Damme speaker cable, however, quite a few of us rate this Belkin speaker cable - a real steal for just £19.99 delivered:

I'm moving into a new room in a couple of weeks so will give everything a good clean then.

Cheers

Cheers, I've seen the thread & have been tempted, but I only need around 1.2m for each speaker, so would be quite a lot coiled up.
Still quite tempting though :)
