Duelund Tinned Copper Speaker Cables


Happy post Thanksgiving to all.

I recently read an intriguing comment on a rather old school product; Duelund Tinned Copper speaker cables.  I have used Luna tinned copper interconnects with good results in terms of tone and timbre.

I wonder if the Duelund speaker cables would also offer good tone and timbre and a sense of realism.  They seem rather simple in design and are devoid of some of the newer cable features ( ie insulation and complex geometries etc) but the reviews would suggest they excel nonetheless.

I wonder if anyone has any direct experience with them?

As always thanks for your insights.

willywonka,

I've never heard anyone ever comment and say that OCC single Crystal was too analytical sounding, I use the rectangular OCC single crystal copper and it's even better than the round OCC, that analytical sound could be coming from the equipment.

@magnumn - My speaker cables use 2 x 14 gauge solid OCC copper for the Signal wires and 1 x 10 gauge silver plated stranded Milspec for the neural wire

When I tried the 2 x 14 gauge solid OCC wire for the neutral, the warmth and musicality that had been there with the 1 x 10 gague Mil-spec had gone, so I went back to the milspec

Maybe its the insulation? - OCC with a different insulaton would sound very different from my own cables. The cables as they are have a very low noise floor and are very dynamic and detailed.sound with the warmth often associated to Tube gear

BTW I’m using a Bryston B125 Integrated amp with Gershman Sonogram Speakers, which for me, is a very nice combination

My IC’s use OCC Silver for the signal wires and OCC solid copper for the Neutral. But there are some menbers that have tried building my IC’s and preferred using the Duelund tinned copper wire with cotten insulation because they preferred its musicality.

I used 16g twin unterminated for a while and didn't think anything of them until I tried some Kimber 8PR and the word 'dark' came to mind when comparing the two.

Maybe dark is wrong; they just weren't bright enough for me.

Has anyone had the opportunity to do a comparison of the Duelund  cables and the Jupiter product?

Are there sonic differences?
