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.

Mr. khiak
I sincerely apologize for the delay. Here is the answer of Mr. Rodolphe BOULANGER, of Goldmund from Swiss, arrived short while ago: 10:58 12/10/2018 (Israel time).

"Dear Michael,

email well received as well as S/N .

The damping factor is Telos 600 damping factor: 400 at 1 KHz, on 8 Ω.

I hope it helps.

Thanks.

Best Regards.

For 1.5m long cable @ 400DF you will need a 4 AWG cable.


Thanks for the image, the cables sure are going to be monsters.

I'm going to get them terminated with spades (spades/forks, not rings as in your picture) so there'll be no cutting of the terminals required.

Everything is very close to the floor so weight shouldn't be an issue, but I appreciate it might. If they won't fit then I might use a connecting block to convert the 0awg to 4mm cable for the last inch or two.

I appreciate the concern and I take your advice on board; I'll be careful.

Well done. You reached 11,881 posts. Yes, this is the way to have 12,000 posts soon. This may explain your reluctant nagging since I opened this thread.
Clock in a digital audio device is jitter related. What jitter has to do with a speaker cable?
Do you even understand what jitter is?
Why it is of any concern, how much jitter is audible, and when does jitter becomes valid?
You are accusing me of: " So, just because you declare these things irrelevant, hotshot, doesn’t make it so".
At a time you just bring up things without supporting them by any technical background or sense, I doubt you if you understand them at all!

Good luck chuck with the 12,000 posts. Must be the achievement of your life time.

Do you collect any other points? Wal-Mart, Safeway, Gas station? Must be a lot of fun.

>>>>Wow! Let me point out it was you who misspoke technically when you stated the conductivity of silver is 9% greater than copper. Why you would assume you’re the only one who understands technical things here is simply bizarre. Can I suggest you might not be quite ready for prime time?


b4icu,
Many thanks for your advice. Presently I bi-amp the Kharma with a Telos 600 driving the 25mm diamond tweeter and 165mm ceramic mid and another Telos 600 driving the 330mm Nomex-Kevlar woofer. Is both cable the same at 4AWG? What if I move the amps closer to the speaker and have 1 m cables instead? Thanks 
b4icu,
for your info, presently I am using 2m Kharma KESL Speaker cable for both of them. Thanks
