After spending a great deal of time and money on upgrading my interconnect and speaker cables, I still wasn't completely satisfied with the sound I was getting from my system. The treble was too bright and edgy, so I considered changing my 10-year-old amplifier.
These speaker cables have really improved the sound. The treble is now more refined, the bass more evident, and everything sounds clearer. I'm totally satisfied with the sound I'm getting. I now realise how good my amplifier is and have decided to keep it. I opted for the 96-hour burn-in, and the cables sounded great as soon as I used them. There was some sibilance on vocals at first, but after a few hours, this completely disappeared.
Futureshop's service was excellent.

I moved from QED cables to try something a little different. I'm very glad I have. There's quite a punch to these, real crisp, precise sound that is extremely detailed. The soundstage is very eye-opening and seductive to the senses, emphasising the Linn drum sequencer greatly and making its stage quite vast.
MR Harket's voice is made more direct and very much the pinnacle as per usual in the songs. Take, for example, T-REX, the drums on the slider have quite a deep, punchy presence, and the warmth and detail of Marc's guitar work, especially on Buick McKane, the song. Also, Chariot Choogle has energy in its bones, brought to life with the Atlas Equator speaker cable. Then we get heavily hypnotised by Billie Holiday; the cables truly bring her prowess to life her vocals pretty much swim into your soul and the subtlety of the snare drums being brushed in the background is just heavenly.

I needed a longer run of cables as I re-positioned my electronics, these replaced a pair of Audioquest Rocket-11, which I loved, but I have to say these are a much better pairing with my Rega Exon-3 mono blocks and Kef R-3s.
Everything seems much more controlled and punchier, and well I guess, like Victor in the comments, with his Rega system more natural, so they seem to synergise well. I went with the gold-plated Z plugs.
I had the entire 96-hour burn, and they sounded great out of the box. I'm happy with my choice; delivery was fast (considering the burn-in).

I was sceptical about how much improvement I would get, replacing old cables with the Atlas Equator 2, but the difference was immediately noticeable.
Worth the upgrade.

I needed a slightly longer run of cables for my system and decided to try an Atlas product.
This cable is very flexible and easy to place. I choose the 72-hour burn-in option, and it sounds fantastic right out of the box. I have no idea how to describe this, but the word natural comes to mind.
Prior to this, I used Chord and QED Silver anniversary. Chord sounded very boomy, and QED is just too bright. This Atlas cable fits my Rega system just perfectly!
The Future Shop service was flawless, as usual.
