As an audiophile why would you want to make something simple and cheap when you can make it complicated and expensive?
Why not use a piece of silver wire instead of a jumper cable?
Hi all! I seen a lot of comments about the quality of the speakers jumpers and how some people replace them with a piece of speaker cable. I replaced the speakers jumpers with a piece of silver wire. I can not said that the difference is notable right away, except in some musical passages where with the stock brass jumpers I could heard some harshness. To my ears with the silver jumpers the upper frequencies sound a little silky, not a day and night difference but still worth the change.
Has anyone replaced the stock jumpers with a silver wire?

Yes I have, now reverse the direction on your jumper and see if it sounds better one way than the other. Then dip the ends in a contact enhancer. Take the same wire strip the insulation and put it in an oversize silicone air tube. You have a direction, you have the best insulator you have the best contact surface. I think you are up to 10.00 usd. NOW let it settle. :-) There are ways to make it sound even better.. Strip a piece of OCC and do the same thing.. Use Solid core vs stranded vs large strand or small strand. They ALL sound different in an air tube and one direction vs the other.. Do one speaker at a time. I always start on the left and work clockwise if there is more than 2 speakers. Regards |
@oldhvymec I have not try to reverse the direction. I will give it a try. Thanks. |
