What It Does in Your System

The Premier Silver Cable, Internally Bi-Wired

Big Silver Oval is what Analysis Plus points to when someone asks for their best silver design, and this is the internally bi-wired version of it. One set of connections at the amplifier splits to two at the speaker end, feeding the bass and treble inputs on separate conductors without running two cables down the wall.

The benefit is straightforward: your speaker's crossover already separates high and low frequencies into different filter networks, and bi-wiring stops the large magnetic fields generated by bass energy from modulating the conductor carrying the far more delicate treble signal.

Silver Over Copper — Speed Without the Glare

Silver has an old reputation for a hard, brittle top end, earned by earlier implementations that chased resolution above all else. Analysis Plus lays pure silver over a stabilizing strand of oxygen-free copper, which does two jobs at once: the copper supplies the structural strength the hollow oval demands, and the pairing delivers silver's speed and detail without the harshness.

What you get is a cable that doesn't editorialize. It won't warm up a bright system or tame a forward one — it simply lets you hear more of what your components are actually doing.

Nine-Gauge Hollow Oval, Hand-Built

The current Big Silver Oval is a significant revision of the original, moving from 12 gauge up to a substantial 9 gauge with a more elongated oval geometry — the low end picked up real punch to go with the midrange and treble the Silver Oval was always known for. The patented hollow oval cross-section keeps resistance remarkably low even at the frequency extremes, where rising resistance and sluggish rise time roll off the top end in ordinary cable.

That construction can't be machine-terminated. Each cable requires roughly an hour of handwork to finish, and in this configuration there are twice as many connections to make.

Is This Right for You?

A few things to confirm before you order:

• Your speakers must be bi-wireable. Look for two pairs of binding posts per speaker — four terminals total — usually joined by metal jumper bars from the factory. If your speakers have a single pair, this cable can't be connected properly and you want the standard Big Silver Oval instead.
• This is a complete pair. Two 6-foot cables, one per channel, each splitting into four connections at the speaker end. No need to double your quantity.
• Check that spades suit both ends. Spade lugs give a broad, solid contact patch, but the speaker end carries four of them into two pairs of binding posts that may sit close together. If your speaker terminals are tightly spaced or shrouded, give us a call before ordering — banana and mixed configurations are available.

Setup & Installation

Start at the speaker end and remove the factory jumper bars linking the two pairs of binding posts — leaving them in place defeats the entire purpose of bi-wiring. Then connect the four spades: positive and negative to the treble posts, positive and negative to the bass posts, each sitting flat under its nut and tightened firmly by hand. Observe polarity carefully across all four.

At the amplifier end, connect the two spades to a single pair of binding posts, red to positive and black to negative. Six feet suits speakers positioned reasonably close to the rack — measure the real routing path rather than the straight-line distance, and leave slack so the cable's weight isn't hanging on the terminations.

Features & Specifications

Internal Bi-Wire Configuration
Separate conductors carry bass and treble from a single amplifier connection, keeping bass magnetic fields away from the treble signal.

Pure Silver Over Oxygen-Free Copper
Silver supplies speed and resolution while the copper core provides the structural stability the hollow oval geometry requires.

Patented Hollow Oval Geometry
An elongated oval cross-section in an oval-coaxial configuration keeps resistance very low across the audio band, including the frequency extremes where ordinary cable falters.

9-Gauge Conductor, Handcrafted Termination
The move up from 12 gauge brought genuine low-end punch, and each cable receives about an hour of handwork before it ships.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this work with my speakers?
Only if they're set up for bi-wiring — two pairs of binding posts per speaker. If your speakers have a single pair of terminals, an internally bi-wired cable can't be connected properly and you should choose the standard Big Silver Oval instead.

Do I need to remove my speakers' jumper bars?
Yes, and it's the step people forget. The metal jumpers linking the bass and treble binding posts must come off, or
