Measure the path the cable will really take, around furniture and along the baseboard. Then add a little slack.

Bananas push straight in, so they connect fastest. Bare wire fits almost anything, but we suggest avoiding it. Bare copper oxidizes quickly, and copper oxide is not a good conductor.

Measure the path the cable will really take, around furniture and along the baseboard. Then add a little slack.

Bananas push straight in, so they connect fastest. Bare wire fits almost anything, but we suggest avoiding it. Bare copper oxidizes quickly, and copper oxide is not a good conductor. If you use bare wire, re-strip the ends when the copper darkens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.05em;margin:0.9em 0 0.25em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eTwo Pairs of Binding Posts?

The Detroit-based company earned its reputation testing and analyzing cables for leading cable manufacturers whose names you'd recognize in a flash. After examining the best, Analysis Plus decided it could do even better by developing its own proprietary hollow-oval conductor design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWhy the unique conductor geometry? Mark Markel and Qinwei Sun, the chief engineers at Analysis Plus, determined that round cable used in conventional speaker cable designs has high levels of current bunching, skin effect phenomenon, and other frequency characteristics that degrade signal quality. Rectangular conductors were a little better, but these suffered high electric field values caused by sharp corners which can also cut into and injure the dielectric when the cable is flexed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAfter many computer simulations, Analysis Plus found that a hollow oval cable was the best design due to its minimal change in resistance with frequency, plus other benefits. The company chose a flexible, braided conductor rather than the conventional solid conductor, which is susceptible to kinks and deformations with resulting signal degradation. A unique woven pattern places every wire statistically as close to the return current as every other wire for evenly distributed high-current density and superior sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eMeticulously constructed using a patent-pending woven design, Silver Oval Speaker Cable is made by layering pure silver over a stabilizer strand of high-purity OFC oxygen free copper, which is then woven into a 12-gauge hollow oval conductor. The Silver Oval Cable is then combined with a computer matched dielectric and is shielded against EMI and other interference for ultra-quiet, noise-free performance. Instruments emerge out of a silent background. Depth and detail are exquisite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\"Resolution is Top Notch\"\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\"Highs are pristine and extended, and the bottom end is also very strong,\" observes \u003cem\u003eSoundStage!\u003c\/em\u003e. \"Resolution is top-notch.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eDue to its unique geometry, each Silver Oval speaker cable requires handcrafted termination requiring an hour of work on each cable.
