New silversmith fidelium cable

To me one of big advantages is how well they fit under the carpet.  Jeff didn't much care for that observation and felt they needed to be elevated depending upon your floor material.

The other option I guess  if you had wooden floors is to cut holes and hang them under the floor.

For Ozzy and others who found the Fidelium's did not work, have you tried other copper foil cables and had the same results? 

It could be a tube/amp/speaker mismatch problem. Large thin foils have an electrical characteristic (either high/low capacitance/inductance, I forget which) that just does not play well with some amps and speaker crossovers. 

I do remember many years ago having custom 2" wide mundorf copper foils, some of the best sounding SC’s I ever had.

But the positive and negative were sandwiched together with a thin layer of teflon double sided tape - the only thing keeping them from shorting out.

Those cables, and the Geortz, and the Townshend F1, they all sandwich the positive and negative close together.

Other like this Fidelium, the Lenehan foils e.t.c do the opposite and have them separated.

I wonder what effect this will have an system matching, because one will suit your amp/speaker combo better than the other.

Don’t even bother asking him...based on his posting history,  here and elsewhere,  this person clearly has a personal issue with Jeff and his cables...

“I just purchased the Townshend F1 speaker cables. Awesome! Puts the Silversmith to shame.
