Omega Mikro Planar V LCX Speaker Cables
« on: 11 Mar 2014, 08:14 pm »
I have one pair of Omega Mikro Planar V LCX speaker cables for sale.

From OM's website:
Planar Speaker V uses a highly refined mono layer silvered- copper ribbon and open-weave copper wire mesh. The Planar Speaker V‘s copper mesh receives a bias voltage from an 18-volt battery and network supply box. The bias voltage reduces dielectric effects and thereby significantly reduces smearing.

Planar Speaker V, by further minimizing dielectric effects, conveys music with even greater time domain fidelity than the II or I. As good as the II and I are, when you hear the V you’ll realize why we go to such extremes to minimize dielectric effects. Your system’s sound will be closer to a live performance by recreating more accurately leading and trailing edge dynamics.

The following link is to an article by Mike Girardi of Stereo Times, the only review I could find that talks about the Planar speakers cables.

In my system on the Genesis 500 speakers they provided excellent definition and instrument separation which is the result, I believe, of the reduced smearing mentioned above.  Balanced from top to bottom and wonderful deep tight bass.  The titanium midrange on the G500 did, however, suffer from an upper midrange glare that I just could not live with over time.  My Cardas Golden Cross give me all the performance of the OM Planar V but without that glare.  So it's time to find them a new home.

Originally $2271, I'm asking $1000 and I will absorb the PayPal fees at my asking price.  Insured shipping is the buyer's responsibility.
