    Default HI-Fi World Speaker Cable Review

    Nice to see (for me anyway) out of 12 different speaker cables reviewed by Paul Rigby in this month's Hi-Fi World, only 2 received 5 globes.

    For anyone who does not read the magazine or has not got it yet, for a bit of fun who can guess which 2.....

    Fisual Havana FX
    Audioquest Type 2
    Talk Cables Talk 3
    Black Rhodium Twist
    Tellurium Q Blue
    Chord Carnival Silver Screen
    Kimber Kable
    Wireworld Luna 16/4
    TCI Diamondback
    Hidiamond Diamond 1
    Clearaudio Copperline Alpha
    VDH The Arctic

    Interesting, are they saying that these two sound best or best value for money, is the Black Rhodium Twist better than the
    Tellurium Q Blue

    Sound quality, all were around the £100 mark (ish), the twist was 2nd best and the TQ top out of the 12.

    We haven't all been banging on about Tellurium Q for the fun of it! Glad Hi-Fi World agreed with us.

    I agree, although it has to be said for a cable that sells for £3.50 per metre (black rhodium twist) to come 2nd is quite an achievement IMHO.
