Hi guys,

I'm looking to try new speaker cables and interconnects in my system because i find my Gryphon cabling too clear for my speakers and the treble tends to be fatigueing in the long run.
I need to try 100% copper cabling only and the ones that come to mind are Tellurium Q Statement and Audience Front Row.
I only need a set of speaker cables and one set of balanced interconnect.
Please let me know if you have suggestions so i can get a smoother sound thanks.

Well it seems my aluminum tweeters are very sensitive to silver cabling.
It really depends on the speakers.

I bought Inakustik. Pure copper litz construction. I have the LS Air 2400. I hear the LS Air 4000 are better.

I like pure copper myself.

What do you like sonically about their interconnects?

What do they claim as their "secret sauce"?

They claim each wire strand is lacquer coated. Electrons don't then jump from strand to strand. Its a good cable for the $. Not over the top great, but not over the top in price. I would buy the speaker cable again. I'm not sure about the interconnect. But then again, i find in order of sonic impact:

Speaker
Power
USB
Interconnect

Shoot, did I just open a can of worms.

Did you get the assembled cables or the bare cable?

I got home and checked. I have the 2404 Air Ref speaker cable. Its a good cable for a low to medium power system. High power wants the 4000 series.

Never heard of bare cable. I wish I could get bare to connect my crossover to my drivers.

I did purchase some Inakustik inwall speaker cable and took it apart. Then twisted up cable to lace my crossover to driver cable. It was a good cable.

Could you elaborate please ?
the audience front row cables sound very pure clean and very detailed with a tight bass.wide open sound stage with excellent depth.incredible resolution and clarity.I highly recommended you as least try these cables.they took my Magnapan 30.7s to a whole new level and I already had very good chord cables.

You don't have any sibilance at all in the trebel region ? because this is the problem i have with my speakers when using silver speaker cables.
My COAX drivers are just as clear as Magnepan speakers it's crazy.
