Introduction

The Ram Electronics HS series of cables is built on the tried but true Canare 4S11 cable. Since before working for Audioholics the Canare 4S11 cables have been my preferred choice for speaker cables. They may not be the best choice for tight spaces or in-wall runs but they look a lot better than the Belden alternative and generally have a lot of weight and heft to them. They just feel like quality. Ram Electronics is giving you access to these cables with top of the line termination options. While you can find some brands for cheaper, if you're looking for the best construction, looks, and components, the HS cables are for you.

Oh and one more thing, does the WBT connector really make a difference? What does River cable use?

Does River Cable use Canare4S11?

Can you please do a comparison with Audio Art Cables? I would love to see what you think about those. Also can you do a big comparison review of XLR connectors.

Do the HS cables use the same gas joint termination thingy that river uses?
