Never really been into speaker cable, just have some copper wire (well Kimber 8TC) at the moment, but a few have mentioned these Nordost cables are the bees-knees. Anyone have any experience of these?

I have not used the Blue Heaven or Red Dawn but I do use the Nordost Flatline speaker cable. It is a bit bright but my system needs that so the combination works fine for me.

I don't know if they're "the bees knees" but they are very good, very competent cables. But there are a lot of very good, very competent cables out there.

Hi Ivor , The right man in the right place , looking for some Speaker cable to replace to very short run of unterminated Nordost Super Flatline , its just a tad too bright for my B&W M1s - Any recommendations for something a little less bright ? Would only need about 3 metres in total

have you tried standard mains cable - solid copper core should soften out the brightness and if you don't like it well.... it's cheap and cheerful.

For my B&W, I have now a pair of Chord Epic Twin which I really like :p
