Dear Fellow Audiophiles,
Mono & Stereo’s Richard Weiner reviewed a full ANTICABLES loom in his reference system and declared them “the Goldilocks cables” because our Level 5 Speaker Wires, Level 6.2 RCA ICs, and Level 3 Power Cords did everything “just right”.
About the most difficult sonic attribute to achieve with cabling is to provide very high resolution and detail, while keeping the music’s rich body. Typically warmth comes without resolution, and detail comes with no meat on its bones. Richard found that our ANTICABLES allows you to actually can have your cake and eat it too. ANTICABLES provides very high-resolution detail which allows you to not only to hear what each instrument sound like, but also the tactical information that conveys the musician playing the instrument, and does so while keeping the music full-bodied without any forwardness, brightness, or leanness.
Richard went on to say…
“ANTICABLES is both the most musically satisfying and the most sonically correct wire I’ve encountered. It balances the sound envelope in a new way, one which is more faithful to the signal than any other I’ve encountered. Combining the ANTICABLES speaker wires, interconnects and power cords made my systems perform better than they have in twenty years.”
I know Richard was serious about this statement since he has now purchased the full ANTICABLES loom for his system.
“By patiently refining his designs, Paul Speltz has managed to combine the features we have all been seeking in our wires. Think of the rounded fullness of tube amplification matched with the controlled precision of solid state or the virtues of vented speaker enclosures combined with those of sealed boxes, and you have a sense of what ANTICABLES provide. Add to these performance virtues the physical flexibility of the wires – no stiff garden hoses here, and the– by current standards – modest prices, and you have a line of irresistible products.”
“The difference with ANTICABLES lies in the sense of correct tone, of detail balanced with a musicality that made me nod: this is how the performances should sound.”
“Why has it taken until now to recover this natural perspective?”
Here are a few more excerpts from the review:
“My own comment from that first session is succinct: “Generous.” Over the months of listening, I expanded that to “warmth without losing incisiveness,” and “precise but still harmonically rich.” If you can imagine the clarity and speed of silver cable coupled with the relaxed tonality of copper, you will have a fair sense of what ANTICABLES can do. Now bring the harmonic rightness a bit further. That is what gold in proper amounts brings to the mixture.”
“I tried Level 5 (Speaker Wires), switched to another multi-strand pure silver cable, a couple of high-purity copper wires – all of them well-known and all of them good performers – and returned to the ANTICABLES for their sense of relaxed and revealing sound. ANTICABLES take somewhere around 150 hours to burn in. My notes from the first couple of months reflect superior decay almost from the first hour, with good attack that became excellent over time. This is the only cable product I have heard which offers this balance of sound.”
“Harry Pearson at The Absolute Sound introduced the concept of “continuousness,” the desirable property of music flowing naturally. (At least, that was my interpretation of the concept.) My experience with all of the ANTICABLES products is that they possess this characteristic: music doesn’t get bunched into discrete quanta. The triumph of ANTICABLES is that it maintains continuousness while also preserving the delicate “space between the notes.”
“If I’ve managed to convey the sound of ANTICABLES loudspeaker cables, then you know what the Level 6.2 ABSOLUTE Signature interconnects sound like. They’re smooth and revealing at the same time.”
With the Level 3 Power Cords plugged directly into the wall outlet Richard found…
“…the difference was pronounced: the very mild softening I’ve grown accustomed to was replaced by a more detailed, articulate sound that brought the music much closer to real life without ever stepping into hyper-etched rendition.”
“With a full loom of ANTICABLES wire in place, I ran through some favorites recordings.” “…I played the “Archduke” trio with Istomin, Stern and Rose (Sony 64513). Over the years, I have listened to this performance on vinyl, compact disc, and watched it on DVD. With ANTICABLES I experienced a greater sense of vitality, the sense of being present in the recording studio.”
“There’s a saying among engineers: anyone can design a great product for a million dollars, but only a genius can design one for a thousand bucks. In Paul Speltz, I believe that we have found an engineer who can provide top-level sound at an accessible price.”

There are three very common problems that audiophiles struggle with in their systems: Not having enough bottom end to give the music a solid foundation to ride on, not being able to get adequate 3D imaging & depth in the soundstage, and getting listening fatigue, which has them turning the music down or off all together. Any audiophile that struggles with any of these issues, I think will enjoy these speakers.
After observing some batch-to-batch sonic inconsistencies with our #12 gauge wire, and accumulating reels of wire I was not willing to use in product, I launched a research project to find the assignable cause of the inconsistency. Material Scientist Dr. Douglas Stauffer and I worked together for 6 months and successfully determined the variable causing the batch-to-batch sonic inconsistencies. Dr. Stauffer called the variable “Dislocation Density”.
We are proud to announce that our newly released
