Spectron Remote Sense Cable

Hello Oscar:

look at http://spectronaudio.com/remotesense.htm Today, Spectron offers bi-wire solution with Spectron-JPS new remote sense cables.

Good Luck
Simon

Hi,

I know that Simon was in love with Elrod cables and he did all testing as its relate to Spectron amps at least. I also believe that Simon started to work with Prana Wire (silver ribbons - oh-la-la!!!). Did anyone hear these JPS cables? Are they comparable to Elrod or Prana (both extraordinary cables, IMHO)?

I have my Elrod's and intend to keep them as long as possible, for me they sound like magic but I am curious.

All The Best

Thanks Simon -- most interesting. From what I can tell, given that I have the monoblocks and biwirable speakers, I'd need to order the mono wired cables and jumpers. Not entirely clear if I should then connect the speaker cable to the uppers or lowers or if that even makes a difference, but it's a tempting option (though an 8ft pair of the RS2 with jumpers would top $4000!!!). Think I'd try the RS1s first and maybe trade up if I liked the results. Anyone heard them?

Hello Oscar,

I have a two rules of thumb when I deal with bi-wired speakers and Remote Sense cables.

1 Remote Sense should be inserted into more difficult load be it a woofer as in many speakers or treble/midrange as in many electrostatic speakers

2 If I deal with just bi-wired situation with one main cable and jumper - as a rule, I place main cable on treble/mid and jumper between it and the woofer - Because woofer will tolerate better additional electrical load of the jumper

When rules #1 and #2 clash - experiment, it takes only a minute to re-connect speaker cables and jumpers at speaker end

When rules #1 and #2 do not clash - still experiment, I could be wrong in general or as its related to your case.

Most important: in selecting your cables and their set up - trust ONLY your ears. Disregard "buzz" and other bull..

Thank you
Simon

For what it's worth I replaced my remote sense cables with the Elrod Silver cables for my main speaker cables to my Gallo 3.1's. I took the remote sense cables and ran them to the SA amp to drive the second woofer coil in the Gallo's.
