I followed the link from the Ethernet cable article.
I am going to enjoy seeing the results of your testing,its going to just be listening correct?

Cross talk and return loss are very curious measurements to understand ( I do that for a living with RF) and unless the measurements are made connected to the source or end device they are very misleading.

Looking forward to the follow up results.
I like the idea of well made affordable cables.

Yes.

They make really good interconnects as well. The QED interconnects are also a solid option. They are very neutral sounding with almost every piece of equipment.

Best,

Wow , thank you for the follow up ! Would you also go for AP for the RCA interconnect cable..? Regards, Stéphane

Hi,

Analysis Plus.

The Oval 9 or Oval 12 depending on how neutral the loudspeakers are.

So , if you had to make a final choice , would you go for QED or AP ? RCA & Speakers cables included ! I have a Leben integrated tube amp. & Denon CD player with high efficiency loudspeakers..what would be your recommendations..? Thanks a lot !

Steven,

I’m planning on just that. Next week.

Reasonably priced means different things to different people, of course. I do know that there are plenty of speaker and interconnect cables under $500, and well under that amount that would more than suffice in the majority of peoples audio systems, including discerning audiophiles.

Cables like these QED’s that you cover here are ones I’ll keep in mind, and I appreciate your willingness to enter the minefield that many others elect to walk around, or avoid altogether. If you have any other recommendations, especially speaker and interconnect cables but not excluding any others, I’m all ears and would be interested in other articles like this one.
