Merlin TSM comparisons

Great. Yes, I had to order the connectors, too. :-)

rebbi, guppy, hififile, got the connectors today and have the supra classic 6 in my ref system. it is not broken in but wow!!!! this stuff is really very good and stupid good for the money. imho, for around $50 with connectors this product puts a lot of high priced cable to shame on merlin speakers.
makes me want to try their litz pressure stamped wires.
as i said, the design philosophy makes perfect sense.
i had an idea it would be really good.
best, b

Hi Bobby. What is it about the design philosophy that makes sense?

Is this the same company that makes the cable called the "Sword"?

Tabl10s,
Yep, this is the same Swedish company that makes the Sword.

Pubul57: I can't speak for Bobby, but when I was looking for a reasonably priced cable, Bobby gave me two requirements: it should be 9 gauge and made from finely stranded copper. The only currently made cable that I could find that met these specs was the Supra Classic 6.0 -- not even Monster makes anything in a 9 gauge wire anymore. Additionally, the Classic 6.0 features copper strands that are plated with tin, to increase conductivity and reduce (supposedly) "skin effect." From Bobby I've gleaned, and he can correct me if I'm wrong, that the 9 gauge requirement has to do with making a match to the Cardas jumpers. The rest of the design rationale I can't explain.
