No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need
Mr. twoleftears A 4/0 AWG or 0000 AWG has a cross section of "only" 2x a 0 AWG as well as better resistance. By the AWG table, the steps between two consecutive AWG cables is not twice as good resistance. When I write 2x 0 AWG, I meant two 0 AWG...

Mr. glupson Not detrimental, but also no effective either. Keep in mind that it is very difficult to work with thick cables as 0 AWG. It is even more difficult to get a 2x 0 AWG or 4x AWG. For the length, every time the length doubles, so sha...

Mr. geoffkait In Israel the Military is compulsory. My older daughter was dismissed as a lieutenant, than promoted in reserves to captain. My younger daughter served at the NAVY as coast guard shift commander. Lady's as men can be Audiophiles. F...

Mr.  shadowcat2016I'll be happy to continue this conversation with you after you get the 0 AWG cables and you find the way the get them 2x 0 AWG into a standard binding post or banana plug, in a way it will last and not be a danger of loss contac...

Mr. shadowcat2016 All with this hobby are male. If there is a women there, please be kind to step up. During my 45 with this hobby, I never had an acceptation! Well, there was one. She came for the boys that played with this audio toys. Pretty q...

Mr. glupson1It is not that simple. As if it would, it would be an old story, everybody knows. In some cases, when the DF is low, as it is often with Tube amplification, a thick and short cable won't help. For amplifiers with other than A or A/B ...

Mr.  shadowcat2016Please no "Sir". Before you spend some money on a 0 AWG speaker cable, I would recommend you an experiment, that might cost you little of nothing. Get your amp and speakers closer, to shorten the length from 15' to 7-8'. Try to ...

Mr. han_n I found it here: https://positive-feedback.com/reviews/hardware-reviews/ch-precision-m1-mono-amplifier/ Sorry if I missed it. I rounded down the $37,475.- for each mono block to $37,000. At the place I call home it is not only accepted,...

Mr. stevecham Yes. 0.010 Ohm resistance is an excellent value for DF (output resistance). Someone did a good design and built a $37,000.- amp to reach that. Why to connect a cheap cable that would ruin it? For example, if you would connect a ca...

Mr. shadowcat2016For your setup, a 2x0 AWG is recommanded.A 10 AWG has 10 times the resistance of a 0 AWG. The Bi-wire is a mistaken concept. A single wire that has the added thickness of the two of Bi-wire, would do better. If you would run this ...

I assume, that my word wouldn't count till now, from your lovely response. However, maybe this answer from a Swiss respected firm's engineer (CH), would: "As a loudspeaker cable of a few meters probably has an impedance of more than 10 mOhm, it ...

Mr. han_n I'd call CH Swiss to check about your M1 Amp.:" Dear Michael,Thank you for your interest in our products. The damping factor of an amplifier being the ratio between the connected loudspeaker's impedance and the amplifier's output imped...

Mr.  geoffkaitHow low can you go? Little errors lead to big errors - No more error talking to you!

Mr.  glupsonThanks. If only we could keep talking on the subject.Now most of the posts are none relevant. 
No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need
Mr.  geoffkaitWhat about finding yourself something useful to do? All you contribute, are notes that has nothing to do with the subject. You can not chalange me on technical arguments, so you push it to none relevant subjects.What do you gain...
