RE: Overlooked design

Hi Jon,

That's interesting to hear- oddly enough, the guy I spoke to from Webro was curious enough when he asked what I wanted such a specific design for that he asked me to send him a link to the TNT site, so I did. Even if they supplied a bare cable, but built to purpose (I said that a good cable would probably something along the lines of a coax built from the ground up with high purity (OCC or 6N) copper centre conductor and foil, air spaced Teflon dielectric and outer jacket, and no braid) that would make things rather easier either to DIY, or for a company to build as a reasonably priced cable.

Who knows though- they'll probably base a decision on perceived interest in potential sales- maybe if enough people enquire it could convince them?

Where did you source high purity silver foil, and what did you use as an outer jacket and lead-out wires?

I agree though, although I haven't listened to any yet, the actual idea Jon Risch thought up is very clever, inspired, really it would be curious to see how good it would sound with a purpose built cable, seeing how many people swear by one that's been modified to suit...
