Beware !! The ANACONDA's coming !!
Hi Guys,
This is big daddy of all the Speaker Cables that I've done,Hence Am calling them "THE ANACONDA" ( as it needs a special attention,Am starting a new thread instead of putting it in my existing one !!) This has taken time then any other projects that I've done and not to mention the Money. This cable has 3 pairs of 16 gauge wire in total,3 wires per side (i,e + and -) The geometry is very unique,I've braided 3 wires first and put them in a heat shrink tube,then same with the other 3. Then I've twisted them in regular fashion (normal twisted pair) then put them again into another heat shrink tube !! finally the nylon braiding ! The purpose of the triple shielding is to cut the maximum capacitance and inductance as possible. The total thickness of the cable is staggering 22MM (almost an Inch) so you can imagine how hard it will be to work with them ! thats also one of the reason for me to name them "THE ANACONDA" I've tried to measure the Values but the damn thing is soo less that my meter refuses to measure them !! so currently I cannot attach any spec. will do so in due time( or atleast when get hold of a meter that can measure) The ends I've left it just soldered,Am searching for a good banana plugs to put,or else thinking of connecting directly to the AMP and Speaker Terminal !! If I've missed anything please do let me know !! I'll update it. Regards. Last edited by soundsgreat; 14th May 2008 at 10:37 PM. |

Hi,
Unfortunately No you can't (Am not fat enough to called ) ! Am very thin ![]() Anyway Thanks a ton for dropping by !! Am currently testing it with my Rig (NAD power Block with Technics CDP) I've also asked sridhar to Audition it and give me feedback. Here I'd like announce to all the interested members that the Cable's can be Auditioned in your place (if mine is not ok with you) with your existing set-up !! All I want is a honest feedback thats all !! first stage will be bangalore (as its easier for to travel) then we can work out something for other city membres ( I can sent to one of the members and after he's done he can subsequently send it to others ) finally back to me in the original condition ( No tampering allowed )So interested members can contact me (PM me post it here however you feel comfortable) Regards. |

Re: Beware !! The ANACONDA's coming !!
Maybe you should call it Hydra since it has 3 cables per line. Or Helix due to its shape. I think spades will be better than banana plugs as I found they do not always fit as snugly in all equipment.
What changes in sound have you noticed yourself from the cables you were using before? |
