Best interconnects for Velodyne DD series


Athough frequency spektra is narrow for a sub I´m sure there
are better and worse IC:s., questions is how much.
Is silver better than copper considering reproduction of signals origin.
What about overtones (although less distinguishable than midrange), how much impact on soundstage, details etc. (not talking about placement of sub).
Anyone with experience I´d really apreciate your thoughts.

Many Thanks!

I use a set of sub cables made specifically for that purpose by Synergistic Research and they are excellent. Tighter, faster, deeper, more accurate and also more musical than a variety of other sub cords I tried. Synergy is obviously critical here and its whatever you like in your system. Cost is rarely an indicator of synergy, as the posts above illustrate.
Hi Fplanner!
I´ve been thinking about Synergistic Research Resolution Reference IC:s. There´s one cable for sale, but will it do for Velodyne DD10 where you have L/R inputs and one balanced.
On their homepage Subwoofer Tesla series I noticed Y-connection on one side but not on the other side.
Why is that?
Surely they must have an e-mail adress, can´t find it.

Appreciate opinions & advice!

Many Thanks!
I needed 2 cables for my setup and my guess is that you probably do as well, but I would make 2 calls.

First 1 to Velodyne - there is a tech guy in Arizona that is very good. Depending on what he says after you describe your setup and what you are trying to achieve, if you DO need a 2nd cable, I would call either Ted or Elliott at Synergistic. All three of these are good guys and will be happy to help you solve your situation.
If you're thinking of expensive ICs then go the distance and replace the stock internal speaker wire between the plate amp and the woofer. For my DD-15 I used a DIY silver litz braid, but any high-quality speaker wire will be an improvement. Replace the cheap connectors on the plate amp with directly soldered connections. Also, if you have a balanced preamp and a long cable run you can try a LF Jensen Isomax transformer at the sub for XLR/RCA conversion and galvanic isolation. Finally, if you're handy, for a big improvement replace the 4-pin rectifier bridge on the plate amp with a bridge made of Cree Schottky SiC diodes.
Hi Dgarretson!
I´ve already followed the advice on sub You gave a while back changing rectifier/internal cable. It was improvement with better distinct bas. But there might be a "missing link" between pre and sub. Maybe exaggerating but I´m willing to give it a try.
(Glad to hear that you´re happy with Dueluns resistors for your Merlins)

Many thanks for all advice.

Happy Listening!
