Duelund Tinned Copper Speaker Cables

@mdrone - The main feature of the Duelund wire is their insulation, which gives them their clarity. The combination of the stranded wire with tinned coating and the nice copper they use gives them their more mellow musical sound.

They are good as speaker cables because OCC copper can be a little too analytical.

I’ve used Duelund for power cables and interconncts and I prefer the sound of OCC copper or OCC sillver (for interconnects) for their superior details and dynamic performance.

Insulation and geometry are important as well

Take a look at this thread

What makes a good cable

It explains the merits of the different variables in cable design

@magnumn - My speaker cables use 2 x 14 gauge solid OCC copper for the Signal wires and 1 x 10 gauge silver plated stranded Milspec for the neural wire

When I tried the 2 x 14 gauge solid OCC wire for the neutral, the warmth and musicality that had been there with the 1 x 10 gague Mil-spec had gone, so I went back to the milspec

Maybe its the insulation? - OCC with a different insulaton would sound very different from my own cables. The cables as they are have a very low noise floor and are very dynamic and detailed.sound with the warmth often associated to Tube gear

BTW I’m using a Bryston B125 Integrated amp with Gershman Sonogram Speakers, which for me, is a very nice combination

My IC’s use OCC Silver for the signal wires and OCC solid copper for the Neutral. But there are some menbers that have tried building my IC’s and preferred using the Duelund tinned copper wire with cotten insulation because they preferred its musicality.
