| DIY Helix Geometry Cabling thanks much @williewonka I need try-wiring as I am tri-amping my speakers and on top the cables will likely cross a walking path in the living room. I know that sounds crazy.... see here... https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/finally-arrived... | |
| DIY Helix Geometry Cabling ok, I could use something like this to attach/glue the wires with constant spacing of 0.4" https://www.ebay.com/itm/114786508621?_skw=HDPE+Bar+%28Polyetylene%29+Strips+White+.031%22+x+2.0%22+x+25+Ft+Roll&itmmeta=01JWSSGPKP7MKES9MCY45F3SGK&... | |
| DIY Helix Geometry Cabling Thanks much @williewonka you use use a twisted pair for the signal or just one wire? | |
| DIY Helix Geometry Cabling Also, still could not find a source for PC triple C wire.... | |
| DIY Helix Geometry Cabling Thanks much @pindac for referring this thread. @williewonka looks everything extremely interesting. For speaker cables: - Why would you prefer a stranded neutral over solid core? - Do you have a picture of a final speaker cable with two twiste... | |
| Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables Thanks much @pindac very interesting. Where can you buy PC-Triple C wire? Which AWG do you use? Do you use twisted pairs or star-quad or do you even "braid" twisted pairs or just single strands? (Mapleshade seems to use several designs..) | |
| Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables Tocaro 40F (single driver, 98db sensitivity, 40watts at 8 ohm) and Tocaro 50F (3 drivers, hence tri-amping, no crossover, 103dB sensitivity and 3x 40watt at 8ohm) They are the informal heirs of the (in)famous Rehdeko, which in my mind where a st... | |
| Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables Solid state, but again super high efficiency speakers, so while the amps have plenty of reserves, typically I would stay within one watt.... DNM has two cables, one is ~16awg and one is ~18awg. Only one conductor. So 2x20awg could work .... howev... | |
| Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables I agree with small gauge wire! From the picture in the link it looks that one channel is twisted and hence the whole construction might just be star quad (which I like on paper). Question is really what "small awg" really means? Audioquest Type ... | |
| Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables I appreciate all the input. But please stick to my ask and talk about solid core design | |
| Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables 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 driv... | |
| Looking for Solid Core Speaker cables Interesting, thanks. I also consider similar designs to Type 4, e.g. twisted pair or star quad. | |
| What is a good all around high quality speaker to purchase? There are speakers and then there are music system. I dont have an answer for the first, but if you are looking to get a music system, then go for Tocaro!! | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes two issues might influence how your DAC translates everything back to analog. Jitter coming from the streamer into the DAC. Yes, the file in the streamer is bit perfect. But the last meter might add jitter to which the DAC might be sensitive. b)... | |
| AC Power My current thinking is that a battery powered system could solve many/all power issues plus feed your fridge in an actual power cut ;-) Look also here: https://www.livingvoice.co.uk/lv-battery-power-supply.html However, I would use modern LFP b... |
