DIY silver speaker cable is great


Category: Cables

Fairly "cheap" too if you go for .999 silver wire.

Improvement to everything except bass is lacking, but I fix it somewhat by doubling the wire to the LF part.

Been there, done that with stacked, teflon-insulated silver foils totaling 8-10 AWG. It sounds great and doesn't suffer any lack of LF.

IME, a final destination speaker cable at $800 cost of goods plus a long afternoon. Factor in an 8-10x COGs multiplier for an equivalent commercial product.

Sabai, can you share construction details on the silver PC? I've been thinking of doing one for comparison to my DIY PCs of Furutech copper/rhodium plugs and Alpha 3 bulk wire.
