Overview
12 AWG OCC copper speaker cable in a two-conductor twisted construction. Outer jacket is woven nylon for abrasion resistance and aesthetics; inner conductor is single-crystal OCC copper for low loop-impedance and consistent damping factor across the audio band.
Terminated in audiophile-grade banana plugs at both ends — see audiophile banana plug specification. For permanent installations consider spade-terminal variants instead.
Drives the passive bookshelf speaker from the balanced power amplifier.
