RE: Connex The Natural One

An excerpt from the PCX page "...36awg tinned copper braided shield (to be connected when a shielded or balanced XLR cable was needed)"

Salectric - Not sure of the configuration you will use. However, if one uses a non-shielded, RCA version, isn't a floating shield at both ends a potential detriment to the sound?

One could buy the similar DCA versions at 20 or 26 ga for an unshielded version.

Your findings will be interesting, as people advocate the "tone" of these wires.

I use the 16ga DCA for runs from the tweeters and midranges to the crossover in a horn system. I also have a 600V 12 ga version for a power cord. I like the sound of the PC, but ultimately take it out because I am missing details at the extremes. It is enjoyable for a while though.
