DIY- NeoTech at Parts Connexion

That's disgusting, and not for me. :-)

However, I also tried Audio Sensibility OCC ICs and they were not as good as my center wire + /sheath - OFC ICs so not sure how these IC cables would compare.

If you tried the Audio Sensibility copper mid/lower end interconnects, these use stranded copper conductors.  They aren't actually that good.  However, their top end Signature series uses solid-core pure silver and they are quite good for the money if you are looking for a silver interconnect cable.  It uses Furutech XLR terminations which have a heavy coating of gold and help compensate the silver to add a warmth to the sound.


But back to Erik's initial post, I find these new Neotech cables to be very interesting.  I have not worked with the Neotech rectangle conductors, but I agree with others that they would be a pain to terminate.  The performance could be quite excellent, but I've never tried them.

Seen 'em before. 87814 looks promising for balanced. Alas I need none and can't hardly solder anymore anyhow.

@erik_squires - take a look at this DIY option - lots of members like them :-)

I now use Solid Neotech UP-OCC copper wire on all my Helix cables and it is very good

I have the Neotech Sahara speaker wire and interconnects, all I can tell you is that they are much better than my harmonic Tech pro 9 gen 3 speaker wire which is round O C C wire and my magic ll interconnects which are OCC round copper and silver a lot more expensive but well worth it, better in every area.
