SS-1000 D BI-WIRED
Our Finest Speaker Bi-Wired Cable
|
|
|
The SS1000-D is also available in a bi-wired version. (Four wires
in one jacket). Many speakers are now designed for Bi-wiring because
it provides for improved inner detail and separation of instruments.
This is especially borne out by use of this cable. This is our top
of the line Bi-wired speaker cable. It is unique in several ways.
One way is in its use of an effective shielding system. We know
of no other speaker cable that includes a shielding system. Noise
that you never realized was there disappears yielding a dead quiet
background. The SS-1000 D takes advantage of silver in its design
through use of our proprietary Silverfuse conductors.

The conductors are 10 gauge and insulated with Teflon; the best
insulation available. There are, however, two types of Teflon: PTFE
and FEP. FEP is less costly for the cable manufacturer; but is significantly
inferior to PTFE. We use PTFE. Have you ever seen any other cable
company specify that their Teflon is PTFE
and not FEP? There is a message there.
We have also included a heavy-duty outer jacket to protect the interior
and to also prevent against sharp bending of the cable. We have
found that Cables that do not have this additional protection, if
bent too sharply, can be susceptible to sustaining small fissures
(cracks) in the conductor which, over a period of time; degrade
the performance of the cable. This is one of the reasons that used
cable gets into the used cable market. Performance has deteriorated
and usually the former owner does not realize why. This is especially
true of Cables that use a mesh cloth as their only outer protection.
(Mesh cloth outer coverings are a sign of a hand made cable. see
our “Cable Hype” page in our web site concerning the
problems with hand made Cables). The cabling (weaving) pattern is
proprietary and optimal to match the other parameters of design
of the cable. It is polypropylene-filled, and in conjunction with
the polypropylene, contains an anti-static, anti-vibration barrier.
Our prices include preparation with top quality gold-plated connectors
of your choice. How does this cable perform? It is designed to be
perfectly neutral without emphasizing any portion of the frequency
range. It has a wide and deep sound stage and excels in transparency
and fidelity of timbre. Our customers tell us this cable is the
equal of any speaker cable on the market and exceeds the performance
of most regardless of price. See customer reviews at audioreview.com

EXPLANATION OF OUR PROPRIETARY SILVERFUSE CONDUCTOR MATERIAL: Silverfuse
is a near alloy of silver and copper. IT IS NOT SILVER PLATED OR
SILVER CLAD. Plating (or clad, which is the same thing as plating)
causes a dioding effect when signal is passed through resulting
in brightness and distortion. The Silverfuse process starts with
seven nines OFHC copper wire with a diameter that is slightly larger
than the required size. It is then pulled through a trough of molten
silver. The wire with a silver deposit, is then forced through a
compacting die where it is subject to tremendous pressure. The silver
and the high purity copper are fused together into a near alloy.
The compacting fusion also reduces the wire diameter to the desired
size. No dioding subsequently occurs with this process. The result
provides for the benefits of silver; which are excellent definition
and clarity, with the high purity copper benefits of warmth and
mellowness

IMPORTANT: When selecting connectors below,
bear in mind that normally, a Bi-wire cable is made with two connectors
on the amplifier side and four connectors on the speaker side (when
talking about one side, left side speaker or right side speaker).
However, occasionally a customer will need four connectors on both
amp and speaker sides because they are going to Bi-amp not Bi-wire.
If you need a Bi-amp set up, select the Amplifier Side Connector
option of 4 per channel.

The
cables arrived this morning - thanks for fast delivery.
I have to say that these cables are absolutely stunning, and cost less
than the Russ Andrews 8TC/4TC combination
that they have replaced. Bass control, tightness, clarity and detail have
all improved way beyond my expectations.
It's as if I have replaced my £800 speakers with a £3000 pair.
Can't wait for them to burn in.
