Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all

Hi Grannyring,
thanks for the update. I'm going to do same, see how it does in my system. I really like the WE10ga as power cord. Also thanks for the Canare suggestion. Early on Yazaki-san also recommend the Canare. Recently my brother got to compare the WE16ga against his favorite speaker cables (will remain nameless, but very expensive) with his Leben/Devore 0/96/Harbeth SHL5s and was blown away by the WE/Belden combo (me too!). The Bro' is making the switch. Best, Rob

Playing with speaker cables and amplifiers this morning.  Have four sets here I have been switching between;
-fine stranded OCC copper wire, 12awg/run-bi-wired;
-multi-strand, 24awg, OCC solid-core copper in PE @ 11awg aggregate/run-bi-wired;
-multi-strand, braided, high-purity solid-core, copper in cotton@12awg/MF-HF and 10awg/LF;
-Star-quad twisted WE16 and WE14 with 13awg/MF-HF and 11awg/LF.
Surprised, I was (saw Star Wars yesterday) that I liked the WE wire best, at least today.  There is just something about this wire that sounds real, fleshed out, and smooth all at the same time.
I am sure that a bi-wire set with 13/11 awg is large enough for a 2M run but I will probably try this in the 10awg wire, just because I have some.  I think I will do the star-quad twist to provide 7awg to the low frequencies and simply use the already twisted pair at 10awg for the MF-HF.  I could then switch and put the 7awg on the MF-HF just for fun and to hear how it sounds.
Anyway, just thought I would share how this stuff continues to amaze.  

Good idea on the 10ga star quad twist cables. They will really make you smile! You can sell the rest. I sold my set of WE16s very quickly.

Thanks for the update Tim! I was planning to try the multi-stranded 24awg speaker cable but now can easily add the bi-wiring to my existing WE10 ones. Unfortunately, the HFC SC is still better in terms of speed, dynamics and detail. 

As for PC, my test is still not over but so far I like my variant 3a (unshielded, 3 braided WE10ga) best, the variant 3b (same, but shielded) in one particular application (my CDP).
I haven't started testing variant 4 which is what manufacturers like Audience (only for the AU24 series) and probably Craig Hampel are deploying.
Just started putting different plugs on the variant 3a, I think I prefer the rhodium ones (Furutech FI28) over copper (FI11). Hopefully the SonarQuest rhodium version, that comes at a fraction of the FI28, would be a close one.
 

Grannyring, Jet, why not write Jeff Day about your new findings with the various different WE gauge, terminations such as Canare f10 and shielding, etc. I believe Jeff and many of his blog reader's including Shirokazu Yazaki-san would be immensely impressed and fascinated by what you have discovered. Jazz, you and Mitch2 as well. Best, your fanboy, Rob
