Speaker wire?

throwback

My speakers have an active woofer section. This negates the need for a thick cable.

My speakers are bi-wired, meaning I use a separate cable for my tweeter, and one for the mids. 4 wires in total per speaker.

I use the Duelend Silver Foil Silk and Oil wire.
My tweeter is fed with the smaller of the two (1.0 I believe), while my midrange uses the 2.0.

I think I will say this next part correctly;
My 4 wires per speaker hang freely, and are seperated. This slightly increases inductance, while lowering capacitance. I found keeping all the wires separated gave a clearer treble presentation. Experiment for yourself.

Using the Duelund wire cost around $400.00 per speaker.

Time for my medication.
