Was jus gonna let everyone know that i just got some New Speaker Cables the other day ordered them online from a guy over at Audiogon they are called Anticables . Anyways i know i am prob opening up a can of worms here but they really opened up my sound for everything the Bass tightened up all i know is my other Cables were MIT 2's an these beat them Hands down things were dramatically clearer an listening to CD's added a new dimension . So to me they are way better but i called one of my buddys over an after he listened to em he goes i might have to get me a set so 2 diff people can't b wrong . Please nobody tellin me i am hearing things please this is jus a informative post to let others know i tried em an i like em lol now going to sell the Mit 2's lol

Nope, could very well be that you aren't hearing things. That things HAVE changed.
From what I know and what I think I know; speaker cables will either not change the sound at all(good cables), or, change different parts of the overall spectrum,(bad cables, but "good" if they modify the parts that you "like")
Lots of folks spend lots of money trying to get their speakers to sound like what they wish their speakers would have sounded like in the first place. And sometimes it even works!! Perhaps your old cables attenuated parts of the sound spectrum that didn't agree with you! Congratulations if it helps!!
At the very least just changing the wires will give you nice clean connections to pass the signal even better!
At any rate, it's kinda like the reason I want to get tubes for M3s in my diningroom system. I know the tubes will modify the sound cause the tubes and the speakers will chase each other round and around and change the sound in ways that I think I'll like for the "music only" system!!

Glad the Anticables are sounding good. F107plus5 is probably right. The MITs might have been attenuating some frequencies that the enamaled solid core copper is letting through. My experience with "magnet wire" has been good as well, smooth but very clear.

"Those that know, know. Those that don't know, will NEVER learn!!" Sounds a bit condescending to me.
