We
call this “The Thick One” because of its heft.
The description below details the construction. What we want
you to know is that you had better be certain of your source
material because these cables are incredibly revealing. They
produce a sound with exceptional dynamics, bass extension,
and an extraordinary time-coherent speed. What goes into them
is what comes out of your speakers. Poorly recorded material
will sound horrible. Fabulous recordings will make you cry.
Silver Circle Audio
has produced unique cables that use conductors of different
materials within the same speaker cable to produce a very
specific effect. Within each run of cable we use 2 conductors
of high-quality 14 AWG copper and 2 of 12 AWG silver-plated
copper. We have found that copper produces a better bass extension
and response, whereas silver-plated copper produces exquisite
detail and high-end extension.
The conductors are twisted
and arranged in a Litz-type (helical) configuration. The cables
are terminated with BFA-type gold-plated banana plugs and
the assemblies are covered with a braided PET monofilament
sleeving. Silver Circle Audio Loudspeaker Cables are available
in standard run, bi-wire, and double run configurations. In
addition to the BFA banana connectors, we also offer a silver-plated
spade connector at no additional charge. WBT spades and locking
banana plugs are available on special order for an additional
charge. Contact us about custom lengths or configurations.
Our design has produced
a loudspeaker cable that Roger Greene of Acoustic Sounds,
Inc. describes like this:
“The texture of
the bass is extremely good and doesn’t exhibit 'one
note bass' like some cables. Here’s the best part of
them. They exhibit no grain in the uppermost treble. They
are effortless to listen to for long periods of time and at
any volume level. Terrific air and spatial characteristics.
! I played the speaker cables for a guy who came over last
night and he was totally overwhelmed by the presentation of
my system (Jadis amps, WATT/Puppies). He guessed by the construction
of the cables and sound that they would be at least $1000
for a 10’ pair. Boy, was he surprised.”
Note: A 10-foot pair
of Standard Run cables retails for $365.
