Overview
A speaker cable is
subject to high currents and voltages (completely different to signals that
interconnect cables have to deal with) and therefore has to be designed
properly in order to prevent the signal being lost or distorted. Speaker cable
is the last line in the chain before the sound is produced, therefore it is
essential the whole signal is transferred intact as you cannot recover it
later. This speaker cable has tight winding of the high purity CCA
conductors and durable transparent plastic (insulation). The intention of
better quality speaker cable is to give the signal room to breathe so the
signal can pass freely through the cable. The outcome is deeper bass, a
smoother midrange, cleaner highs and a wider sound stage, giving your speakers
the ability to play sound as it was meant to be heard and in some cases the
difference in sound when using good quality speaker cable is almost like buying
new speakers.
Depending on the power of your amp, you may require thicker speaker cable
(higher contact area). We stock a wide range of speaker cable so please view
our shop, if you require help, then please give us a call. An amplifier is constantly outputting power, in order for it to do this
efficiently with less resistance, speaker cable that matches your system should
be used. A good analogy is water flowing into a watering can and then out of a
spout. If the spout is too small water will build up, however if a large spout
is used water can flow freely. Good practices such as not cutting or
breaking any of the individual strands when stripping speaker cable help to
increase performance.
How to Use - Speaker cable
should be inserted into amplifiers and speakers, then secured. The
polarity also needs to be checked, this is where the positive and positive are
connected together and the negative and negative are connected together.
Different Speakers have different means of attaching speaker cable. Your speakers may have binding posts, spring clips, screw terminals or require banana plugs
