Your favorite OCC speaker cable

I've gotten good sound with my Analysis Plus Crystal Solo interconnects and may go for their speaker wire. But I like to wait for something used to come along, and it could be a long wait.

In the meantime, if there's a speaker wire with OCC that you've liked, I'd be curious to know what's worked for you.

Hilde45, you can find it in rolls also but I believe you can buy it by the foot. I got a 25 foot roll years ago on line. It looks imposing but it is really not hard to terminate. You really should have one of these https://capritools.com/shop/precision-wire-stripper/ There are a lot of wires to strip and they are teflon insulated. Teflon is tough stuff. If you do get the wire let me know and I will review with you how this is best done. You will also need to have a soldering iron and preferably a heat gun to shrink tubing.

hilde45, the best performing speaker wire is Kimber Kable 12TC. It has the lowest inductance of any cable made along with extremely low linear and parallel resistance. It is as close to having "no wire at all" as you can get. You can buy it in lengths, terminate it yourself and save big bucks. Kimber Kable is used in many megabuck cables. It is being hidden by a cable sheath. Kimber Kable does not use sheaths. They have nothing to hide.
