A note for the GR-Research Clan
« on: 24 Mar 2009, 06:44 pm »
I hope this does not offend Danny, but I wanted to share.  If it does send me to the Galatic Waste Bin!

I have been using total junk "lamp cord" speaker wire for some time now.  I know it's awful stuff but just couldn't pony up for some better wire. 

In my audio search for good wire I became enamored with the Pure Copper Crystal Vampire Wire, but obviously that stuff is long gone.  For Reference see this link for explanation about single crystal copper wire.  http://www.acoustic-dimension.com/furutech/furutech-PCOCC.htm

Well I started searching for PCOCC wire and found this deal on Belkin PureAV Silver Series that uses PCOCC wire.  These started life for $130 and weigh almost 4 pounds.  I got two sets and they appear to be very nice.

So for you guys using crap speaker wire, spring a $20 bill and get these because at this price its worth it.  Here is the link http://cgi.ebay.com/Belkin-PureAV-Silver-Series-Speaker-Cables-14-AWG-12-ft_W0QQitemZ320352795220QQihZ011QQcategoryZ14966QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262?_trksid=p1742.m153.l1262

Cheers,
Robert

I'd take a set but they don't ship to Australia :(

If anyone wants to forward a set for a fee, PM me!

Thanks,

Steve.

Experience the detail and microphonics that only a premium speaker cable can deliver.

 :lol:

I hope that was a slip up on the person who made the auction, but they make it look like official ad copy from the manufacturer.  Microphonics is very bad and something that should be avoided at all costs.  A cable that is microphonic is a lousy cable.
