An EXPERIMENT for those who have never heard differences in cables
There are many here who have never heard differences in cables, I was there years ago until I read a post of someone preferring the sound of 28 awg magnet wires for speaker cables. I quickly drove out to my local Radio Shack and picked up magnet wires of various sizes (22-28 awg) to hear what it sounds like. I remember this being a fun experiment and a really cheap one that taught me a thing or two, I've gone on to experience many other cable designs over the years.
***Run two insulated magnet wire to each speaker (one for positive, one for negative) and use them in place of your existing speaker cable, the insulation on magnet wires are very thin and a little difficult to strip, sandpapering the tips may work. Connect them to the binding posts on your amp and speakers and let us know what you hear?
(Amazon also carries various sizes of magnet wires)

Yes indeedy robjerman. The only way you'll get a difference is to use speaker wire that cannot handle the load. Another useful experiment with thin wire is to enter it into your left ear and push gently until it exits your right ear. Pull through and connect up the left end to your amp and the right to the speaker. I think you'll hear a big difference. |
clearthinker .... please be careful, there are geniuses who will follow your advice. I remember in 2001 or 2002 at an electronic show in Vegas there was a group of people protesting the use of human plasma in plasma TVs |
For those special individuals, ignorant of available magnet wire gauges: https://www.amazon.com/TEMCo-AWG-Copper-Magnet-Wire/dp/B071JC7LKK btw: The air-core inductors in many of your crossovers, are already passing current to your low freq drivers, in much smaller sizes and at greater lengths than the typical cable. |
