Can someone whom have been to B&W's hifi show tell me what cables have they used before? I've so far seen van den hul and audioquest, what about you? thanks.

they use whoever donates cables for them...
at the latest audio show in my area, audioquest provided cables for our B&W display. does this really matter? they arent affiliated officially with any cable company if that's what you are asking, nor do they endorse one. -
I've been to numerous shows and presentations with B&W speakers, and I found they used these brands at the following shows/events:
-VAD Show (Holland) : Cardas (2 years in a row)
-B&W Factory (Classé system) : Cardas
-B&W Factory (Auditorium) : Van Den Hul Magnum
-B&W Dealerdays (at B&W distributor) : Audioquest
So for their ultra high-end setups like the one at VAD (Classé Omega's + N800 Signature) they always use Cardas cables.
Not just speakercable, but balanced interlinks and powercables as well.
Where I live, the distributor for B&W also distributes Audioquest cables.Comment

This thread is not relevent to B & W speakers themselves, and as such is disallowed. We've been through this again and again. As Cowanrg said as well, it's not really relevent to B & W speakers. Agreed.
While I have nothing against the major cable companies that were listed here, I do have against freely promoting all brands of cables unnecessarily on HTGuide.com, a cable company sponsored forum. We've stated this is for speakers only here again and again. Please adhere to that.
Cables can only be discussed casually in speaker threads, not in created cable threads.

I want to start eliminating all the Monster Cables from my system and upgrade to wires and cables of a greater sonic fidelity. Having researched and demoed many audioquest cables, I have decided to go with audioquest's HDMI-3. Here is the problem, while perusing online sites and costs, I glanced at... -
If I believe _______ speaker cable face off, only measurements count to evaluate the performance of speaker cables. They seem to imply resistance, capacitance, and inductance are the significant values that indicate quality. Reading their articles there is no indication they played music through any... -
Last night my wife and I went to see one of my favorite female vocalists, Norah Jones at the Orpheum Theater in Boston. We had very good front row, center stage balcony tickets; our seats were directly in line with where Norah sat while playing piano.
This is my attempt to compare what... -
