I am not an engineer, so I may be speaking out of school, but my conclusion is these wires are a big “pipe” and any amplifier will benefit by more easily delivering its output to the speaker, particularly inefficient speakers like my Magnepans. What a difference! It can now fill my 12 x 15 room with sound at a decent level, and the sound quality is so much better. Just for grins I hooked up my $99 Lepai 30W/Channel Class D Integrated. The bass was excellent – tight, fast, and accurately low. 7’s are about 6 months old, so perhaps some of this is attributable to break-in, but regardless this made me smile. I never felt the need to hook up my DWM bass panel. And for the first time I was satisfied with the bass the. The Rogue, in particular, seemed much more capable, particularly at higher levels, than ever before. I paid 410 shipped with tax and asking 360 FIRM if you are interested. I ordered last year direct from BK and it is new, still sealed in the shipping plastic. Each amplifier sounded more effortless in its delivery. (Sahuarita) NEW, BK Butler Original Tube Driver model 911. And that is the difference I heard when I hooked up these wires. It also has an active EQ instead of passive.
It doesnt have the internal power transformer like the original, so its quieter. Tube Driver circuit, but theres now a proper buffer on the output. All schematics to compare the different versions are here on this thread.
When chandler copied the BK Butler design they totally messed up the Tone Stack Section. For the most part I have been using my Rogue Audio Sphinx v2 Integrated, but also a Denon PMA-2000IVR integrated and a Hafler 110 Pre Amp and 500 Power Amp.Įverything I hear about my Maggies is the more power the better. Made in USA by Butler/Tube Works, and branded for Ibanez. Forgot to mention before, if you have a Chandler Wall Mart Tube driver you can easily convert it to a 'authentic' tube driver by rebuilding the tone stack section. I have been using the wires with my Magnepan. I may not understand all of the science that goes into the design but they look like my system will sound better when they are hooked up – well for sure, it will look better. They are extremely well made and look great – my wife even liked them! When I unwrapped the cables I was impressed with the construction.

As luck would have it the day I received these speaker wires the June issue of Sound & Vision arrived in my mail.įor their 60th anniversary they reprinted the tests Stereo Review did 30 years ago comparing Monster Cable speaker wire with zip cord – doing A/B/X testing “expert” listeners could not reliably differentiate between the 16 gauge zip cord and the much more expensive Monster Cable.Īn interesting coincidence - to keep me honest I’ll bet. ,, (2006) Comfortably Numb: A History of The Wall Pink Floyd 19781981,, PFA. I’ve always questioned the value of expensive speaker wire and interconnects.
