Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Anyone identify this cable?

2008-02-06 Thread killie99

It's speaker cable and it belonged to a friend who sadly died and his
wife is asking me to dispose of everything for her. I reckon it's
probably about 5 years old as I can remeber him getting it when he
bought new speakers and I know he didn't make it up himself - possible
that the dealer made it up to a custom length? It's terminated with
zplugs and certainly looks like Nordost but I'm a bit wary of listing
it on ebay and saying it's Nordost if it's not. I also don't want to
just toss it out if it's worth a bit. Anyone know what rev 1 blue
heaven was like as I was wondering if it might be that.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Anyone identify this cable?

2008-02-05 Thread killie99

I'm pretty sure it's Nordost cable of some sort but it doesn't match
anything I see on their site so I'm guessing it's an older cable. It's
a biwire cable with the tweeter cable having fewer conductors than the
woofer cable, any one know what it is?

Looks like Nordost blue heaven to me, but those terminations differ from
what I've seen on factory terminated ends.  Blue heaven used red and
blue shrink wrap but the biwire set of Red Dawn I have pairs the
positive on one side, rather than using alternating sections.

The cables seem to narrow to be blue heaven's, and as mentioned, the
terminations  dont look like nordost. Could be telephone wire...
