Best Subwoofer Interconnect Cable for powered Wilson Watch Dog


Hi All -

I am using a Cardas Neutral Reference balanced interconnect cable (xlr ends) between my Cary C12 and my powered Wilson Watch Dog Sub. Has anyone used alternative interconnects that have brought maximum definition to this or other powered subwoofers? By the way, the ac power cord is a Cardas Golden Reference.

Any thoughts from your experiences would be appreciated!

Best Regards!!

Billandsol, a point you may want to consider is that the input impedance of the balanced input of your sub is only 4000 ohms, which may be too low to be an optimal match for the 660 ohm balanced output impedance of your C12 (depending on how the C12's output impedance varies in the lower part of the frequency range).

The much higher 56K unbalanced input impedance of your sub, in combination with the 330 ohm unbalanced output impedance of the C12, suggests that an unbalanced connection may be well worth trying.
