Anybody knows about NBS cables?


Does any body knows about NBS cable, especialy the Monitor 4 and how does it compare to another brands like Nordost, Cardas...? Is it a big improvement between Monitor 3 and 4? I have Jmlab electra speakers with Classe amp, pre, CDP Thanks for your inputs Worldcup86

I have two NBS power cords.I needed to repair on plug end and discovered that the wire used is cheap 14ga.thnn wire that can be bought at the hardware store for 18 cents per foot.I've also heard that interonnects and speaker cables are disquised Belden wire.
Slawney The cords were the Dragonfly with most common 14 ga.THHN (gasoline resistant or direct bury cable commonly used for well pump wiring).No joke you can buy this stuff at the hardware store dirt cheap run it through a braided shield and a mesh sheath and you can make all the six foot cords you want for 20 bucks a piece.My experience is that at least the Dragonfly model I used is a rip!!
