WBT audio cables

Hi,
I bought a few lengths of speaker cables last weekend and I was wondering if any of you have heard of WBT speaker cables? In fact I decided on buying them because I was impresses with the sound quality. Anyway,I have checked the web but nothing was found regarding this. BTW, it's printed "Made in Germany" but I am not sure if this is truly so. Hope some of you could share some insight about this. Thanks!

I used the WBT interconnect cable + RCA plug many years ago, got 2 pairs of them from ZEST way back then from City Square/Ampang Plaza (back then the hifi center of KL), infact are still using them in the AV system.
Found that these cable have details and weight in the presentation. I think it was model 2016 cable with WBT 0101 plug. The cable have white shiny coats and are quite flexible.
Quite sure that these cable are from Germany, was almost ten years ago. Not sure about the current range of WBT cables.
Petty impressive cable considering the price point during that time.

There was a review in Star audiophile section about these cables.

Hi whwong,
Thanks for the reply.
Well, the cable model which I have now is "888" which makes me suspect this may be Chinese. What confuses me is that it is also printed "Made In Germany" on the outer sleeve. Sound quality is pretty good. In fact, I've found out that Vietnam and China are selling this sort of cable locally. Perhaps, they are genuine.....or (again) maybe not.

definitely FAKE.

WBT are famous for making Connectors. Not Cables.

But even their connectors have been copied and faked by Chinese makers.


A quick check at the WBT website does not list any cable product.
