Since there's more than one "correct" answers you should definitely buy them both.
Hifimanrookie ordered above mentioned BWs for his HE-500s and I ordered SWs for mine soon after. I'm still on the waiting list and what I understand he has not received his yet either. Anyway there aren't any HE-500 owners who would have both for comparison, this was asked a few pages back. So buy them both and let us know which you prefer.

When i was leaving home i caught the postman delivering my black widows..i am takin them with me to my family visit..i expected them to be heavier and thicker though...but i guess its because they are not sleeved and the connectors being viablue and not furutech as those are heavy buggers :D they look very sexy..the connectors are sweet looking.only pity i can only connect them to my rig when i am home again later in evening :mad: as soon i have some hours on them i will report back to u guys and. Post some pics :D am sooooo happy now!!! Cant wait to hear the upgrade in sound compared to the cable i have now :wink:

some quick pics of my new baby...the teddybear is my test object trying out how light the cables are..lolz ps..my apologies for the bad quality..was in a hurry!
L3000.gif

 
i still need some hours to listen to it..thats why i was so quiet... with every single hour my cables get better...somehow the cables needed a bit more burnin time...wow! but one thing i already know for sure..i am not going to upgrade to a silver widow for my he500...as for my ears i think the treble is just right now....the voices sound silky sweet (the voice of the female singer of evenasence is really sexy by the way..i always thought her voice was only good for screamin
wink.gif
!), the lows are very bass natural sounding and the mids..well..adele sounds as if i can touch her! and the highs (mariay hello!) wow! breathtaking...i tried sarah brighton also.and queen! OMG..really! and the silver widow will for sure will sound brighter...but as i said...pity i have not the money laying around to actually test that in reallife..but who knows one day i can try one, if i find a nice person to lend me one
biggrin.gif
but for now..the black widow 22awg sounds like the ultimate he500 cable for me until now..in a few days i will try to put a short review online for the BW as i know u all are waiting for that..so have a bit patience...let me enjoy my cables a bit..so dont be so selfish and let me enjoy my cables a bit ok!!

His cables are already fully burned in, put them through my cable cooker, gas mark 6.

Cool (or actually well cooked)! That's great service for all of us HE-500 users waiting for the comprehensive review of the Black Widow.

+1! Totally agree with you.
 
EDIT: And just at the same time he posts the pictures...
Those Viablue plugs look really great. The cables too of course, nice work Frank.

Why would you need time to write the review, check the bottom of the envelope the cables came in, i already wrote one for you. 
biggrin.gif

 
Yes, even with being through the cooker, they still do need a few hours real use to settle in, i did tell you that. Put another couple of hours on it and prepare to be blown away, or should i say intoxicated.
