All were 12 gauge and the reviewer had trouble justifying the high priced ones. So seriously, was that a joke?
List price for the cables he mentioned above (MIT Oracle 3.2) is about $3500/pair. I think it's a joke, but there are folks out there that apparently don't. If I had A few grand to spend on cables, I likely wouldn't be using Outlaw equipment (no offense). laugh

I had some older MIT MI-330 cables and "traded up". I purchased 1.5 pair (3 cables) of the Oracle 3.2 XLR for the front, and 1 pair (2 cables) of Shotgun S3 XLR for the surrounds. Then got the Z-Stabilizer for the power. Total price was under $2K.

If it wasn't for the fact I was trading in my old cables (which was more than selling on eBay) and the new ones about 70% off MSRP, I wouldn't of purchased them.

Say what you want, but with my B&W 804S/HTM3S speakers, I could hear a difference between them and the older MI-330 cables. All of the new cables have switchable impedance networks. They are set to low (which sounds best with the 7500), but can be set to medium or high for a different sound timber.
