| Can one use assymetric wire gauge for speaker cable construction? There is one caveat pertaining to asymmetric cables and that is they DO NOT work well with amplifiers that adopt a balanced symmetrical differential design. i.e. - where both speaker output terminals carry the same signal, but 180 degrees out of ... | |
| Dedicated power supply and upgraded power cable Generally - the better the power supply in a component then the better the power cable has to be in order to achieve any benefit. But in todays world, with the advances in the wire used, the insulation used and the geometry of the power cables - ... | |
| Can one use assymetric wire gauge for speaker cable construction? @audio_phool - The speaker cables I and many others have built use 2 x 16 gauge solid UP-OCC copper wire (or 2 x 14 gauge) for the signal and 1 x 10 gauge Silver plated stranded Mil-Spec wire for the Neutral wire and they sound excellent Here’s ... | |
