No. 141) Delighted this Brit:

I'm delighted Paul. I recently compared hem to a pure silver cable costing nearly £300 & it took about 5 minutes before the others were in the post back to the distributor.

No. 142) Totally Stunned this Brit:

Hi Judy & Paul, I am stunned by what your cable has done for my system. It's as if it's totally different - totally for the better. Thank you VERY much...

No. 143) Strongly Recommend in Slovenia:

Hello Paul, as of recently I am a happy owner of your anti-cables and I would like to say that it really improved the sound of my Hi-Fi set. Among other things the bass region is more evident now, especially when listening to acoustic music (double bass for example). I guess this is due also to my other components but nevertheless I will strongly recommend your product to others as well.

No. 144) Never Been this Enthusiastic About any Equipment Purchase:

Hello Paul and Judy: Just received your incredible speaker cables and jumpers. Did not take long to replace the Tara Cables which had been linked to a pair of Legacy Classics. Matched with an ultra-high end tubular setup, your cables transmitted a sound never before experienced by this listener. The music became LIFE-LIKE ! A five minute audition will make a believer out of the most critical audiophile !!!

For those who happen upon this testimonial, YES, these things work and the sound you hear is PURE MAGIC... I have never been this enthusiastic about any equipment purchase and I have acquired quite a few pricey pieces over the years. Hands down, I have never experienced the level of enjoyment I am realizing with your anti-cables. Next step is the purchase of anti-interconnects !!!

Paul and Judy, thank you for the pleasure you are giving me with your wonderful product. These remarks are unsolicited and come with the highest of recommendations !!!

No. 145) Canadian Group Effort:

One Hi Fi friend had recently purchased quite many cables from you. After burning, hooking up, and firing off, most of the feed back are on the very positive side. He said the Anti-Cable sounds wonderfully than his $1000+ worth Kimble Cable. We have another audition in another set-up and it seems, the sound is more natural and distinctive (and quieter) than the fairly expensive one in using. Now, we are gathering orders and will place them soon. Regards and cannot wait to have the Anti-Cables on my system.

No. 146) A Felony May be in Order:

First, I've let those on the PS Audio discussion forum know that it is a felony in all areas of the world to play music through lesser cables than yours. I'd been using a pair of PS Audio Xstream Resolution cables for about a year or so. They were the best I'd ever used, until 24 hours after introducing your Anti-Cables into my system. Man, I have never heard anything like this before! Amazing, amazing, amazing! My girlfriend came home from work the other night and she noticed the difference immediately as she walked in. She's never said that about anything else audio-wise that I've bought before! The both of us thank you for such an incredible contribution!

No. 147) Refreshing:

Hi Paul - I am coming near the term of my evaluation of the AC and anti IC and have decided to keep them.

They offer superb value (notably the IC, which I found nearly the equal of my long time reference, and much more expensive Fadel Ref. 1 IC!!! Never had found a satisfactory alternative so far, including Nordost Tyr, Audience 24, ...; wow); I am not sure the AC are fully broken in yet, but the results are good enough at this stage that I want to continue experimenting with them and listening more.

Congratulations and than you for offering true quality cables at such an affordable price, this is so refreshing in today's hifi world. Kind regards

No. 148) $15,000 of MIT's are looking for a New Home:

Hi Paul. I just received my anti cables and anti ic's. You've heard the phrase that ignorance is bliss. I've got a little different twist on that...ignorance is also very expensive! Your products are absolutely unbelievable! I've heard about you and your wires for a couple of years or so. I always chuckled to myself about the guys that were using your stuff. I mean after all, didn't they know that for big performance you had to have big cables? Furthermore, how could the performance of your skinny little wires be anywhere close to my speaker cables that weighed between 50-78 pounds per pair and retailed for as much as $14,000.00 a pair? After all, the more they cost the better they must be...right? WRONG!!!

Plus, it seemed to me that if you had big expensive cables that required college wrestling moves just to get them installed then you shouldn't need to be hooking up some coil of wire behind your speakers in an effort to make things right. These guys were chasing dreams with that stuff as far as I was concerned. Now I know better!

I have owned most of the MIT lineup from the Magnum M1's up to the top where I'm at right now with my MIT Oracle MA interconnects ($6,995.00 per 1 meter RCA) and Magnum MA speaker cable ($7,995.00 per 8 foot pair). I have literally spent tens of thousand of dollars in the past couple of years on speaker cables and interconnects and I was very happy with the sound that I had going with my current cables...until I put yours in my system that is!
I am totally flabbergasted at how good these are! My expensive MIT's will definitely be looking for a new home.

Yours have the most neutral, natural, balanced, full, tight, quick, smooth delivery I've ever heard! Nothing lost and everything gained. And I've got less than 2 hours on them! The only downside that I can see is that once again I find myself in the burn in mode, but this time around I've got something I can definitely live with when the burn in is done.

I'm very tickled that I gave these a chance. I did so because of all the positive reviews and comments other users are posting on the internet. That's generally how I buy my gear...I read what other guys are saying and when I find something that a bunch of guys are talking about and they're all saying the same thing then I figure I better check that item out.

When I see repeated postings from guys saying that they got rid of their $8,000.00 cables because yours were better, that's something I have to get in on. So glad I did.

Now, FYI...when I emailed you last week about these I asked if you thought there would be any problem running Bybee Golden Goddess RCA and speaker tails with them. You indicated that you didn't know enough about the Bybee product to answer that. My new Bybee's came yesterday right before the box from you arrived. So I went ahead and installed the Speltz/Bybee combination at the same time and they are very complimentary. My soundstage is huge and highly detailed and I've got music coming out of the furniture!

I also went ahead and twisted my anti cables before installing them. A lot of guys were saying that was the way to go so I just did it up front. Now I have nothing to do but sit back and enjoy and keep my fingers crossed that the "crap mode" of burn in won't be too bad.

I think my next purchase will be a pair of your Autoformers. First I need to find a couple of anti cable haters to sell my MIT stuff to though! Could be tough because I think there's only 2 of them out there. LOL!!!

It seems to me that with as good as your products are that you could charge whatever you wanted for them. My wife asked me yesterday what came in the box. I told her some dirt cheap speaker cables and interconnects that could allow me to sell my other more costly cables. She just rolled her eyes...she's heard that before! Then I told her about your products and what they cost. Then I pointed to the MIT cables and told her the retail of those. Then I told her that if everything I had read about your wires was true, then I could sell my expensive cables and put some serious cash in the bank. Her eyes weren't rolling then.

My hat is off to you. Keep up the good work. I'll probably be rolling through soon for a pair of Autoformers. Thanks again.

No. 149) No Regrets in Taiwan:

Hi Judy, Thanks for the prompt reply. You have a great product and certainly deserve the award. I replaced my $2000 speaker cables with yours and never regretted for a minute.

No. 150) More Real in Switzerland:

I received the cables yesterday. Thank you. Immediately I got to work and replaced both my interconnect and LS cables with yours. I could not believe my ears. The sound so so different . We call it more real. The bass had improved tremendously (and you write that the bass will even improve after burn in - I can't wait !) and the overall clarity was a complete step change. I called in my wife to witness. She is very critical as she has little sympathy for me spending money on hifi tuning but has a very good ear as she is linguistic and plays the piano and classical guitar. I swapped back to my original (Van den Hull) and back to yours again. Straightaway she said that it's more like the real thing". In the last few weeks, I have tried 5 'upgrades' of Van den Hull including the famous "First", Kimber and Cardas cables. All did not impress and the minor improvement the Cardas Neutral Reference made, still did not justify the expenditure. I am a happy man. Thanks. Regards,

Alistair Botterill, Switzerland

The Anti-Cables have now been awarded The Absolute Sound's Editors Choice Award five years in a row (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, & 2010), which means they are considered to be "the best of the best". This is quite amazing, considering they cost 1/100 as much as others on the list.

...and the best awards of all:

The Absolute Sound's Top 200 Audio Products 2010 and 2011 (issue 197 & 207)

The Absolute Sound's Top 200 Audio Products for 2011 lists the Anti-Cables along with only 9 other speaker cables which are priced as amazing as $24,900.

Printed below is the original TAS review:

Paul Speltz’s “anti-cable” speaker cables are a godsend to those of us who want good sound but are repulsed by the astronomically high prices some cable manufacturers are asking for their goods. I know cable manufacturers need to make a living, and I have no problem with that, but there’s a limit to what I can conceive of spending on a hunk of wire. (And yes, I know how essential that hunk of wire can be to the sonic integrity of one’s system, but when all is said and done, it’s still a hunk of wire.) Thus the name “anti-cables.” This stuff goes against everything most high-end speaker cables are typical known for—like ridiculously high prices, haute couture designer jackets, and compromised sonics.

At this point, I’ve only had a few weeks to audition them, so it’s possible that extended listening could reveal a shortcoming or two. But so far, I have to say I’m blown away by the neutrality and lack of coloration I’m hearing and by the absence of any apparent downside. The high frequencies are open and clear with no tizziness; the midrange has exceptional clarity, transparency, and detail; and the bass is extended, with remarkable articulation. Miraculously, the cost is only $80 for an 8 foot pair with spades.

If you visit Paul Speltz’s anti-cable Web site you can read the story behind these cables along with technical info and testimonials up the ying-yang. In a nutshell, the anti-cables are constructed of 12-gauge solid-core copper wire with a very thin red coating or dielectric. According to Speltz, it’s the minimal dielectric that accounts for the amazing clarity and virtual lack of sonic signature. These cables are a bit stiff, but still easy to work with. They do require shaping to keep off the carpeting and away from other components and cables, but I’d say the bending and shaping, at most, might take an extra few minutes per cable. SK
