Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all


Are any of you building power cords with the Western Electric WE16ga? I see that a bunch of fellas on the Jeff Day Blog are making them with very good success. Day has also made some and it seems he may install on his
Mac MC30s. How about it? Any updates? Best, Rob

Jetrexpro - Thank you for your efforts and this report.  I presume you used a 1/4" shield, as the opening on the F10 appears to be barely that size.

Happy New Year to you as well.  Take care. 




Maxima95 I have some 1/4" braid and it was too small to thread two runs of WE16g. I am using 1/2" braid. The F10 RCA opening was just large enough to shove the 1/2" braid thru. It's a tight fit and actually works pretty well.
Thank you for the information.  Now I don't have to find out the hard way (as I usually do).
You're welcome. Glad to share my observations. One more thing I am noticing about the WE16g shielded interconnects is that the sound seems more pure, less noise, Quieter background. I guess all of this makes sense since the shield must make this happen. I am thinking that which version of this interconnect one would prefer, shielded vs unshielded would be system and ear dependent. 
My findings are the very same as yours Jet. Shielded with Canare connectors is best.
