Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables

See here

Mike

Interesting, thanks.

I also consider similar designs to Type 4, e.g. twisted pair or star quad.

Harmonic Technology - Pro 9, 9+, 11, etc.

Multiple, small diameter, solid core OCC wires each individually insulated with foamed PE.

Look into the Acoustic Zen cables too.

Make your own with 12 or 14 gauge OCC copper in Teflon from PartsConnexion

Anticables

There is a person selling a 10 foot pair of Audioquest Indigo speaker cables with spades at both ends.  They are solid core wires.   I owned a 20 foot pair years ago and I am sorry I sold them.  

Every AudioQuest cable is solid core except their glorified zip cord X2 and custom installation FLEX/Slip series. 

Look @ Neotech bulk wire.

I’ve linked solid core copper/Teflon.

They also have solid core silver/Teflon.

I've read about a rectangular solid core wire they make, but don't know where to source it.

I used to use these with my Martin-Logan CLSs and they were great.  I told HP about them and so The Absolute Sound did a review of them, which was quite favorable.  They are solid copper (or silver) ribbons.  Weren't very expensive, for the copper, back then.  They have fallen off the map somewhat, but maybe you  can contact them and see what you think.

I have been using Clear Day Double Shotgun solid silver speaker cables for years now. They are no longer made, however show up used from time to time.

@total111 this may work: https://www.amazon.com/WORLDS-BEST-CABLES-Foot-Audiophile/dp/B0CD1PPMJS/ref=ast_sto_dp_puis

I have Raven cables and like them. For speakers and interconnects. Price is reasonable. 

I’d recommend Ecosse Cable’s MS2.15 solid core with Monocrystal conductors. 

Silversmith Fidelium.

Cardas cables are also solid core copper and made from multiple strands of small diameter wire configured according to the golden ratio.  Many like Golden Cross or Golden Reference, which are occasionally available used at reasonable prices.

I use Kimber 8PR as they put their "varistrand" grouping of solid core wires in this cable and the 8 version puts a 10 guage total into each leg. A great sounding cable for peanuts.

Side question, I’m not that smart. Do you guys put Anti-Cables in this category or did this whole topic fly right over my midget mind ? Disparaging comments are ok, thanks. Mike B. 

Thanks for all the input. There are so many exotic and cool designs I did not know of. So appreciate all the input.

First, and I did not mention before, I need 3 runs of 21' and 3 runs of 13' of cable. Yes, I tri-amp each speaker which has 3 drivers...so a LOT of cable, which for economical reasons prevent any high-priced stuff in my situation. I am not going to spend 10k on cables ;-) 

Second, when I said "solid core" I had a very narrow definition in my mind. Max. 2 strands in a twisted pair (or star-quad) configuration or very similar minimalistic approaches. The mentioned Kimber 8PR definitely does not meet that standard (even though interesting concept). 

I was more looking for something like this https://jantzen-audio.com/wp-content/uploads/006-0085.pdf

(I ordered some to make some tests...)

And yes, I like the idea of DIY, and while the Neotech stuff looks great, some silver plated copper could work also work well....

I would message Chris Van Haus at VH Audio and see what he can build for you.  He carries many brands of cables and bulk wire with high end terminations.  He will custom build.  I have bought a few custom cables from him; he has always been honest with me as to what it will sound like.

Wow!  That takes me back.  Still using Type 4 on one of my systems.  I have a 30-year+  history with Audioquest as a (semi-retired) dealer.  I remember a demo a l-o-n-g time ago of the $1/ft Type 2 against a large, multi-stranded cable we were selling at the time costing many times more per feet.  You guessed it.  The Type 2 sounded better.  We become "solid core" believers on the spot, and became an AQ dealer. 30+ years later we till use AQ internally in our performance mods. Rocket 44 is  our 'go to' cable for most speaker upgrades.

It sounds like you've had good experiences with the AQ cables you mentioned.  Today's market has many legitimate offerings, and I'm sure there are some strong "bang for the buck" options for you out there.  But, I'd certainly give the newer AQ offerings a look before pulling the trigger.
