The "most foolish" loudspeaker tweak/upgrade ... is


I suggest Von Schweikert Audio's "ULTRA Internal Wire Upgrade" at a 'mere' $39,700..

Thanks jetter. I know what you mean and am somewhat inclined to agree about the BS aspect of that statement. When I first read it I paused, went back and re-read it thinking I may have read it wrong initially. As geoffkait mentioned, perhaps there is some benefit in noise reduction or something else. It’s also conceivable they are using the term metaphorically.

So your objection is merely with the price and is without regard to performance. 

gdhal, thanks for taking my comment the right way, i.e. regardless of the twist or not, I think you are getting a speaker that is just going to be fantastic.  Can't wait to hear your thoughts when you get it and dial it in.

Wilson Audio's literature at some point mentioned the importance of the number of turns in the twist connecting drivers.  Take if for what it's worth.
