I may split the cable into two equal portions then both crimp and solder. A good soldering iron would flow solder without too much difficulty and quickly. I like the termination process of crimp and solder. I would simply stack the two spades at the binding post. Still thinking on this.
No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need
It goes back to cable manufaturars, mostly provide no relevant data! to sales and the users. None will answer this!
Whay do you think that you own now the optimal cable to your setup?
I think I've figured it out.

b4icu, Michael, presently both ends are connected by spades. I just went to douglasconnection.com introduce by grannyring to purchase 8 banana and 8 spade connectors size for 4AWG wire. On checkout, they only ship to a US address. I am not from US, so I contacted them by email to see if they can help. Waiting for their response. I plan to use banana at the Telos 600 end and spade at the speaker end. So I run 4awg 1.5m to mid/high and another 4awg 1.5m to the woofer. I cannot find special coaxial connector for the amp. I have another Telos 600 connected to the Revel Voice 2 Centre speaker, should I use the same 4AWG 1.5m? My good friend have a Passlabs 350.8 to Wilson Alexia Speakers 2.5m. Kindly advise for his cable size. Thank you so much for all your help. We would have save lots of money if we know you earlier. Have a good day. |
Mr. khiak 1. The Bi-wire thing is not of any advantage over single wire, as long their combined cross section (or gauge) of the bi-wire equals to the single wire. It was a trend with a story (another urban myth blown away) in the 90's. 2. All Telos 600 amp's need the same speaker cable as I've told you, as it depends on the Dumping Factor of the amp. and not the load (the speaker). That apply to all amp's you have. 3.
Pass labs 350.8 (all X
series have the same DF) Dumping Factor is 150. A bit poor, but it is what it is. He needs a 4 AWG for the 2.5-3m
length. 4.
Who said it's coming for
free? :-) I hope you can do that for me…? Thanks. I
contacted Mr. Rodolphe from Goldmund, Swiss just before the
weekend. I'll most likely get his educated answer tomorrow (Mon.). I'll post his replay here on this thread for you. |
Dear Professor Michael, Please find photos of the cable I built as a result of your tutelage at the following links: https://imgur.com/a/12C7MQM https://imgur.com/a/vIL3qs0 I hope this helps you and your disciples. All the Best |
