Canare 4S11
Hmmmmm…. This sounds like something that the snake oil screechers would call Snake Oil, as according to them, nothing of that stuff really matters, inaudible, etc. etc. But, I guess because the price is cheap / reasonable, it’s not considered snake oil? 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. |
@thyname unless you have heard the Canare 4S11 cable, you have no clue as to what you are talking about. The Canare replaced a pair of Groneberg Quattro Reference Cables that cost me $1500 per run were replaced by the Canare at less than $200 a pair. The difference was obvious from the first note. I liked it so much that I re-wired both of my systems with the Canare. A friend with a Pass amp and preamp driving Magnepan 3.7i speakers liked them so much in my system that he bought them as well for his system. We are both extremely satisfied. |
Oh I have. And still own the Canare speaker cables I posted on the link above. Scroll up. Admittedly, they are not my primary speaker cables, but I keep them as a benchmark for any speaker cables I try. Two runs, as I bi-wire.
