What should be the awg of the signal wires ? The ones in the pic look too thick.
LinuxGuru, Can you post some pictures of your amplifier ?
For the power cables as well as speaker cables (+/-), just about any 5A multicore cable will do, including stock speaker-wire (Rs.12 to Rs.20/metre).
The line cables can be twisted-pair or shielded audio cables, and they're not usually very thick.
My amp is very crude-looking at the moment, compared to Quad's - his may be considered to be the reference construction.
Hmm use a 20 rupee cable to speaker out terminal, then a 2000 rupee speaker cable from terminal to speaker ..... I would suggest use a scissors and chop your very expensive speaker cables to use in the amp guys!hyeah:
snip! snip!
:clapping: The big boys probably use much worse inside theirs.
Can't we use finolex 0.5 sqmm ? Its 99.97% Copper after allhyeah:
@quad : Thanks. conn6 looks good to me.
Not only better It would be fantastic.The price is better than good. Says Rs.0 on that web page. :lol:
As this is my frst DIY. I have opted for vfm kit. Later I can modify to improve SQ of this amp. One can use silver wires, gold plated sockets, attenuators etc. if they have high end setup.
