Mogami W3082 coax speaker cable?
« on: 9 Feb 2004, 05:04 pm »
I was wondering if anyone has any experience with Mogami W3082 coax speaker cable?

I hear that one of the mastering studios in town is using it to hook up their monitors, and I was intrigued because I hadn't seen a coax arrangement for speaker cable before: http://www.mogamicable.com/generic_con/me_p44.html

When I did a web search, I found a good general study on speaker wire done by PassLabs, and the Mogami seemed to provide very good measurements: http://www.passlabs.com/pdf/spkrcabl.pdf
 
At 77 cents/foot, the stuff is cheap - http://www.performanceaudio.com/cgi/pages.cgi?buildPage=item&ProductID=005636 - so I'll probably get some and hook it up. But I was curious if anyone has any prior experience with it?

Also, how is coax speaker cable hooked up? Their website mentions that the outer conductor is a shield. Does that mean that it is not used? Or do I connect the outer conductor to the speaker terminal '-' and the center conductor to the '+'? Or do I use two runs and only connect the center?
