What's Your Favorite Speaker Cable for B&W 802D?
I guess I asked it all in the post title...lol
Lookin to maybe experiment with speaker cables a bit. What do you B&W guys recommend? |

As we have suggested to others if your local dealer does not a nice selection, you may want to try the Cable Company's lending library. They have a nice selection from which to choose and try out before you buy. Jim Last edited by Still-One; 01-03-2011 at 08:59 AM. Reason: Opps Sorry, that was Lending |

Limited experience...
I have a pair of MIT Shotguns currently; interested in trying something new as well. Signal Cable, anyone? Possibly, Kimber 4VS, from a friend to try and experiment.
Thanks in advance... |

An interesting query. I would have thought that using the right cables is a matching issue with the front end of one's sound system and not the speakers.
It'll be interesting to hear how AA'rs respond. |

Several speaker cables have given me nice results with B&W. Audioquest,XLO,and now Wireworld. I have also heard very nice results from Transparent and Van Den Hul( not sure about the new diamonds but previous models were internally wired with it.)

Cardas Golden Reference.. Cardas cabling is on the warm side and personally I would stay away from silver with the diamond tweeter. The cable company is the thing to do to try to find a cable that matches up with your system and musical tastes.

I use, with satisfaction, MIT Oracle V3.1 BW.
Highly recommended also the Kimber Select KS3035 (Copper and Silver). |

Audioquest Meteor for my new 802 Diamonds, which is a hybrid copper and silver cable.
I believe these are the same cables used in the The Absolute Sound review. |
