What was the system at the dealers? Different gear, different room... how did you hear the speaker cables and did the dealer allow you to hear the same setup with a different speaker cable?
I understand that the sound I heard at the dealer's will be quite different from the sound of my system, different gear, different room etc. I managed to persuade the dealer to lend me the cables for a week so that I could compare it to my Audioquest T4. What struck me on a first listen was the sense of quietness, no background noise, just music. Could this be attributed to the better shielding of the Straightwire cables? From top to bottom everything now sounds more coherent and lifelike. I am very impressed with this cable so far.
