...at 940/689-9800 or Elliot in the warehouse at 800/689-4434.

SC also has Vampire Wire enameled ('magnet') wire in 20- and 26g. for 50 and 25 cents per foot. This also is OCC, super-hi-purity copper. I used a trio of this to make speaker cable and to wire my OB dipole linearrays.

It's net-15-1/2g. and fairly easy to make--I wound, in opposite directions, the 2 conductor bundles around a 4g. teflon tube I got from Percy, and anchored it all with Teflon plumber's tape. Included a dielectric-bias system--24g. insulated wires to each conductor bundle for the positive, and 18g. bare copper wrapped around the outside for the negative--and 'powered' that with 58VDC from 6 9V batteries.

I'm a big fan of silver conductors and have lots of Audioquest Cheetah IC in my system, but the system sounded SO good with entry-level Audioquest copper as conductors, I decided to use high-quality copper in my final wiring and save $400 in the process.

I have more in-process pics if you're interested; e-mail me at jeffreybehr(at)cox(dot)net.
