jetrexpro - As I looked through some previous posts, I saw that you ordered some 1/4" braided shielding. Forgive me if I missed it, but I could not locate your findings on shielded vs. unshielded WE 16 GA ICs. Or whether the Canare F-10s sounded better to you on the shielded or unshielded version. Any information on this would be appreciated. |
Jet - That is disappointing re: the 10 ga. I bought some to try as SC and PC. Have not done so yet. I use different systems at different times. I currently have 2A3s set up and single wire, but bi-wire using much more powerful amps (SS or Hybrid) with the rest. Did you try 16 ga on the high end and 10 ga on the low? Regards |
Jet - I am using slightly modified Klipsch LaScalas (aftermarket crossover and tweeter(s). I use WE 14ga to wire the midrange to the xover and WE 16ga for the tweeter. I have tried other wires but am liking the balance with the WE so far. I tried the WE 16 for the speaker wires (bare) and have had them in and out. I will try them again sometime. I have some Rhodium/copper spades and some gold/copper bananas I could try as well. I may not even bother with the WE 10ga for the 2A3s. I made a PC for the DAC with WE 14ga for the H/N and a piece of 8ga wire I had laying around for the ground. I used these connectors: http://www.sonarquest.net/carbon-edition/rhodium-plated/sonarquest-carbon-fiber-series-rhodium-plate... I take it out periodically to try something else; but I keep putting it back in! I have all of these projects in mind for the WE wire I have. The only stumbling block is the execution. |
