Freaked out in Montreal:

"I have had a strong aversion all my life for gadgets, esoteric gimmicks and especially those audiofool tweaks.  My middle name is "skepticism".  I decided to give your anti-cables a try, not because they are ridiculously cheap but because the reviews they received indicated the kind of sound - or lack of sound- I was looking for.  $120 for a pair bi-wire was worth the try." 

"Your cables are the 9th pair in my system in the last year.  You can call that "audiophilia nervosa" if you want, but I have not been able to find the right mix of tight bass, clean midrange and extended yet smooth highs yet.  And my last pair of cables are $950 for 3 feet biwired, so money has never really been the issue."  

"I will spare you all the details that you probably already know about transient, speed, clarity and so.  Let me just tell you that 3 years ago, I had my most satisfying listening session at a dealer ever (about a $100,000 system).  Tonight, my $8,000 system came very very close, as close as it has ever been: tight yet blooming bass, details that I had never heard before, 3rd, maybe 4th dimension in sound, hand-clapping that freaked me out, exceptional layering and depth that gave me the impression that my room was 2-3 times bigger and above all, a truly open window with extended highs that just keep rising and rising until they disappear far away."  

"Is this what neutral is? I have no clue, defining neutrality is like normality: it depends where you come from.  Is this an unconditional endorsement of your Anti-cable? no, that would be pretentious, I am no expert.  Is this an unconditional endorsement of your cables for my system in my room with my ears" you bet!!!!  I am just wondering what I have been listening to all these years, pretty scary." 

"Your cables won't be reviewed by any major mags, or you may be responsible for putting thousands on unemployment in the cable industry.  I cannot wait to resell my $800-a meter cable....well done to say the least.  If you need a partner in Canada, let me know, I am in."  

Pol Rotre, Montreal Canada  

Kicking Cardas in Vermont:  

"Hi Paul I received the 12" Anti-Cable jumpers a few days ago, and I must admit, they better my Cardas jumpers in everyway. Better separation, quieter background, cleaner sound without being bright, and they are not even broken in yet!! I still need 2 more sets, one of which I will order in the next few days. Thanks Paul, talk to you soon!"  

__

"Paul, Now I have a complete set of your cables and it has dramatically changed the sound for the better, especially in focus and dynamics, and they are not even broken in yet. In the near future, I will purchase another set to use in a biwire configuration. Thank you for your excellent product and customer service!"

Mark Maturo,  VT  

Smokin’:

  "Hi Paul, I have had your Anti-cables in for about 10 days now and man, do they deliver. Since replacing my 12 gauge custom made "garden hose" sized cables there has been massive improvement in sound staging, everything is much more alive, warm and dynamic. (I will keep the name of my old cables confidential due to the fact that they are made by a fellow AudioGon Brother). Suffice it to say that I paid a much loftier price for my former cables and your Anti-Cables absolutely SMOKE them. There is no comparison, Paul you have a breakthrough product on your hands and it has been, and will continue to be, my pleasure to sing their praises to whomever will listen."  

"Thank you for a great product at such a great price,"  

Bill Benedict,   WI

Smiles from Hong Kong:  

"Thanks for ANTI-CABLE, the performance is superior than most brand cables, such as Kimber, VDH and Kimber Select; it is more natural, more 3D and less coloration. My friend is deeply impressed by your cable; best regards."  

Philip Leung,  Hong Kong

Positive Feedback from Canada:

"Hi Paul, Got the cables today... While connecting your Anti-Cables to my Sim Audio gear, I must admit, I was not expecting a change from the cables already in my system. I had just finished listening to Jesse Cook with my original cables. Then I replaced the cabling with your Anti-Cables. The result... Clean, Clear, Live Sound that definitely was not heard in my system before, period."  

"I was ready to spend $700 dollars on a pair of speaker cable... I just do not feel the need anymore. Thank you Paul, your less is more approach works for me."

"PS: I might be bi-wiring soon. I will let you know."

Carlo Rosica,  Canada

Big Results in the Big Apple:

"I decided that it would make sense to give Paul's Anti-Cables a try. What the heck, they're cheap, I ordered a set and - HOLY *$#&!!! I had no idea what a dramatic difference these cables would make. Soundstage opened WAY up this time; highs not only stayed smooth, but EXTENDED and stayed smooth. Now I actually hear the steel strings against the fretboard of an acoustic guitar. The presentation is completely effortless. Response is super-quick, drums have more slam, acoustic bass is more realistic. These cables are incredible - and a 7' set cost me all of $70!!! The most amazing part is, this is after only 30 minutes of listening. I can't imagine what my system will sound like once these babies have a little burn-in time."

"Thank you Paul, for dramatically improving my audio system. Your products will be recommended by me to anyone who asks my opinion on this stuff."

Chris Ziemer,  New York City

Performs Wonders in the Windy City:  

"Thanks for the prompt shipment. In a word, these cables are fantastic. They have really opened up my system. Sometime soon, I'll be posting a review of my system in AudioCircle and AudioAsylum. I'll be sure to provide a top recommendation for your cables as the resulting synergy is excellent. Best, Nick"  

Nicholas Zafran,  Chicago IL

Happy in Hawaii:  

"I got the Anti-Cables today. first few minutes, and already I can hear more dimensionality and clarity than my present ZuCable's "Julian" speaker cables. Mahalo! (thanks)"  

Dennis Yanos ,  Hawaii

Minnesota Refinement:  

"Paul, The anti-cables have been a very nice addition. They have definitely helped refine the sound and brought the soundstage into tighter focus. Thanks,"  

Steve Rehnberg,  MN   

Bravo from Italy:  

"Paul, i am an italian customer that have just installed your anticables, I sent you a mail to say you something and that the cables sound good. After some hours of listening that comment seems to me too cold, they sound beautifully (And are very cheaper than some pretentious brands)." "Bravo!"

Claudio Gallo,  Italy

An Affordable Experiment:  

"Paul, There's no way a bi-wired set of your two-foot long copper wires were going to better my much pricier 18 inch AudioQuest Midnight/Argent biwire set. But, heck, I can afford a $40 experiment. My Dunlavy IV's have never sounded so good. Better in every way. Quieter, better lows, which really surprised me, more depth--you name it."  

Rod Riese,  MN

Pleased in Pennsylvania:

"Hello Paul: You have a great product here!. Clear, transparent, with smooth highs and excellent bass! The sound is natural, with many layers, as I've never heard before. Regards,"  

Jose Cigno, PA

A Dublin Delight:  

"The search is over!!! Thank you Paul for these exquisite cables!!!"  

"After only one day of listening I was simply astounded at the change that ANTICABLEs brought to my system... I won't even try to go into detail of the improvement, because, quite likely, I wouldn't stop for hours. It just seems that all the aural beauty and goodness was released out of my speakers."  

"My brand new PS Audio BiWire XStream Statements are already auctioned on Ebay, they will easily go for £400 - £500 in Europe. I ordered Statements just before coming across ANTICABLEs, they arrived with delay (unlike ANTICABLEs) and they were back in their original box ready to be auctioned just 1 hour after they originally left it, needless to say - unlike ANTICABLEs... You can expect a good few orders from my audiophile friends too, ANTICABLEs are the product not to be missed in these days of cable witchcraft. All the best from Ireland. Sincerely,"

Marin Fulgosi, Ireland

         -and more-

"Hi Paul, I would like to make another order - 7' and 5' sets with spades."

  "Once again - thank you for the most significant improvement on my system... Sincerely,"

Marin Fulgosi, Dublin Ireland  

Michigan's Dragon Slayer:  

"I can't get over the difference between your Anti-Cables vs. the Audioquest Dragon 2 speaker cable. With the Dragons the whole system sounded slow and bloated like an old prize fighter. Now it sounds crisp, detailed but not bright. Even my son could hear the difference."

"I could actually turn down the gain with your Anti-Cables in the circuit. My system just seemed to play louder or maybe it was just as clear at a lower volume."  

"When I went back to using the Audioquest Dragon 2, that retail for $3000, a bit of air around the voices and instruments has disappeared. The soundstage is not quite as deep. I am also getting some annoying "overtones" of sound which wasn't there with the Anti-Cables. I now can hear the Dragon has a lot of sibilance distortion, which is not pleasing to the ear. With the Anti-Cables, the bass seems to be tighter and everything seemed to be perfect."  

Tom Kearney, MI  

Tom has now sold his AQ Dragon 2 cables to a guy in Japan for $850. Good going Tom!  

Sounds More Like Music:  

"I replaced my Harmonic Technology 9 AWG Bi-wire Single Crystal Copper Speaker Cable. Quite frankly, the difference with your Anti-Cables was considerable, in particular with reproduction of space and sound stage. I was never aware of the speaker cable's characteristic influence until the Anti-Cable removed it. This may sound “weird” but now it sounds more like music. I always heard detail with soundstage but nothing like this. I just hope this can encourage other listeners who may think this a tweak and consider your Anti-Cables equally important when considering and buying high end components.  Thank You"  

Nicholas Palmese, AR  

Multi-Thousand Dollar cables, now for sale on AudioGon:

"Just got the cables, can't believe my ears. Without "broken in" they sounded awesome. Very nature as it described. Now I need to put my muti-thousands spker cables for sale at the 'goner(LOL)."  

"Great to deal business with you, and will continue to recommend them to my customers."

Very Good Product, Very Good Price, Great Service:  

"I just wanted to let you know that I received the "ANTI-"cables yesterday! Wow, that was fast and your e-mail service was great too!"  

"After a couple hours of listening yesterday evening, I came away thoroughly impressed with the changes that occurred with my system by using your speaker cables. These cables are everything that I read about on your website! Congratulations on a very good product at a very good price."  

"And thanks for the great service!"  

Tom Ingram,  Canada
