Canare 4S11
I am taking delivery tomorrow of a 15 foot pair of Canare 4S11 cables which I will incorporate into my secondary system. I do not expect much from them as I only paid $106.00 for the 15 foot pair with locking bananas on both ends from Ram Electronics. I am putting these cables up against my Groneberg Quattro Reference cables that go for $25.00 a foot plus termination. I am hoping for the best but am not expecting too much. We shall see. I will report on what I hear after the 200hr break in as that is what I am being told it takes to break them in.

For terminated Canare speaker cables, this Chinese reputable seller has some good options: http://www.ghentaudio.com/part/index-sp.html 4S12F and 4S8 |
I am not sure why all the hypes about the Canare. It looks just like an ordinary set of cable that you can purchase at Home Depot. If something is too good to be true, then there's a reason for doubt. I may be a bit naive, but if somebody is saying a $1/per foot cable can beat a $1500 cable, that is a bit of a snake oil in itself. |
I don't think Home Depot sells cable designs like Canare. Did you look at the wrap of the conductors or only the outer jacket? Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can radiate from these speaker lines directly into adjacent low voltage cables (i.e. microphone, video lines, etc.). Canare solves this problem by using a 4-conductor "Star Quad" configuration in all of our 4S Series speaker cables. Because every conductor is located the same distance from the center, the opposing magnetic fields are cancelled out. Attenuation of magnetic field radiation is superior when compared to a standard 2-conductor speaker wire. I replaced my $2500 cables with Canare 4S11. |
