I was interested in these cables in spite of the degradation caused by adding the screw-on banana plug.
But then I read the information and that turned me off to the company completely.
"Bass frequencies travel in a solid central 12 AWG core conductor, which is surrounded by six stranded cores. These outside conductors carry the mid and high frequencies, resulting in solid imaging, enhanced sound staging, and true signal clarity."
That's insane! Are they saying they have an online crossover? If they did, the single contact banana plug would put frequencies all together again anyways.
They look like nice cables but the hype, made-up physics and illusions of snake oil surrounding them makes me lose trust in anything that company says.
We sent stock to them over a month ago. Not sure what's happening at their warehouse, may be some lockdown related delays? Their warehouse is in NJ... Please check with them, at this point that seems best.
I have an old marantz receiver and banana plugs won’t work for speaker connections. Are there pin connectors that could be screwed in to replace the banana plugs?
Look, at $50 you can't argue with this deal. For those who think that cables like this are snake oil, there are 3 electrical properties in cables that are known to affect sound, impedance, inductance and capacitance. The 1st primarily affects insertion loss and impedance matching, while the other 2 affect frequency based filtering. All these properties need to be low in a speaker cable. The idea is to get impedance low enough to be insignificant to impedance matching between the amp and drivers and to push low pass the filter frequency beyond the audible range. Impedance is basically a function of wire gauge and material while the other 2 are influenced by gauge, distance between conductors, dielectric constant of the insulator and construction. In construction, a twisted pair or conductors is better than a flat cable like common zip chord. Well, that's basically it. The problem is that when audio engineers talk about snake oil, they are not talking about zip chord vs twisted pair, they are talking about pro quality twisted pair speaker cable vs boutique cables costing thousands. This is a very significant and relevant context to the snake oil comments. If your not convinced, It's only $50 to find out for yourself.
