Let's not be too hasty. I do like being able to try NVA in my own system and own time though. All hifi should be sold this way.

I've tried Talk 3 Speaker Cable with an AP10PX and sounded very good.

LS1s are better than 79 strand QED!!!! But they are 3 times the price. I can do a small review when ive done a bit more testing, ive got to go out for a meal now so have to leave all my hifi at home :cry:

I used solid-core mains wire (2mm) for many years on my old NVA A40 stereo amp, it was a popular thing to do in the 80's. I few years ago I asked Supra (the Jenving company in Sweden) if they had a good, low-capacitance cable, they recommended their Supra Classic 4.0. I got some, it sounded very good and didn't cause any problems with the amp.

What the A40 didn't like was an early experiment with 200-strand Monster Cable. It ran quite warm and that wasn't a good sign.

Since I made the decision to only support amplifiers with users of NVA cable my problems have gone down loads, both in people returning because they don't like and from failures. It may have lost me some sales but it has made my life a heck of lot easier.

More happy customers as well.
