I recently purchased this speaker cable to try with my system. At the price it is being offered it was not a very expensive experiment and so I opted for it. One of the groups that favoured it were the discussions on the audiogon forum.
I changed the cables from Monster S16 black speaker cable which is also an inexpensive but good sounding cable. I have also tried a few other speaker cables in the past few days that include VDH D352, Wireworld Luna and Equinox, one from the chord company and another one from Jamo. I wanted to try Nordost too but could not manage it in my city. I was almost sure of opting for the VDH D352 which sounded the best on my system. It was a little over my budget and so I needed a little time to think over it. During this time another friend of mine suggested the Supra cable. Like others, I have been a fan of their power cables but never had I actually tried their speaker cables.
Played a gamble and bought a length of the cable from Lakozy, Delhi.
Thankfully it turned out to be a good bet.
The cable is really thick and multistaranded. The individual copper strands are tin plated. According to the makers, this reduces the skin effect. The first impression I had with this cable was of excessive low frequency. It really frees up the bass. While replacing the speaker cables, I had moved the speakers and a little shift back to the original position and the bass became well controlled and energetic. The mid range remained similar to my earlier cable and sounded sweet. The high frequencies became smoother and very pleasing. I feel that this is one hidden treasure at a very reasonable price.
The cable has good sheathing but I prefer to run it not very close to all other cables.
It might not be upto the expectations of some but for me this has been one of the best cables that I have heard in my system.
(I use the cable bare ended).
