I have been experimenting with tubular speaker conductors made from high conductivity copper. I have learned that electricity wants to travel in a tubular pattern so it seemed logical to make a conductor tubular. I made the tubes large enough so that all the frequencies were reproduced and I spaced the positive and negative tubes at least ten diameters apart to eliminate capacitive effects. The SoundPipers have rotatable leads on the ends of each conductor so that you can shift them around to get to any binding post position that you might encounter. I have found that an open tube sounds better that a closed or filled tube. It needs to breathe it seems. I try to keep the power amps at least 36" away from the speakers so this lenght of SoundPiper tube seems to be ideal. The SoundPiper Tubular Conductors are straight runs of tube and are only flexible at the adjustable lead ends. They look very high-tech (clear dielectric so that you can see the bright copper finish) and sort of remind me of the old Frankenstein electrodes. |
