AM, yes, I have the Duelund too/very good. .....I prefer my current ear/brain.....run DIY.


Speaker Cables over time:

Kimber 8TC
Kimber KS3033
Kimber KS3035
Zen Styx
Kimber KS6063
Duelund 12awg/Oil impregnated
Anticables
Townsend Audio's best.....returned to TMR
Fidelium Cables / Silversmith Audio
Audience frontRow .....rerturned to TMR
UP-OCCC DIY
UP-OCCCopper DIY with 6N Silver (see signature - hybrid of Kimber KS6063/KS6065 solid core)

Combination of 24awg solid core and 19awg stranded per Kimber's formula; something more real musically about these gauges. My ZDSD and ZMA get to really show what they can do (D-60, Takshaka, KS1030 & current DIY).

I'm 12awg to each speaker post with 9awg aggregate to each speaker with solid core and stranded.
According to my trusty Wirebarn combination calculator:


24awg 6N silver solid core x 2 ConneX (Parts Connexion) PTFE
24awg UP-OCCC solid core x 3 Neotech (Sonic Craft)
19awg Kimber Wire TCSS Hyper-Pure Copper, VariStrand, *PTFE Dielectric x 3 (Parts Connexion)

.............very pleased....love what I created.

Holding off on the Takshaka speaker cables. I am so enamored/proud of my hybrid creation.

I decided to soup up the Mid-fi Rig! I took delivery of SVS Prime Pinnacle Speakers and the PB-1000 Pro Subwoofer. Very pleased! I still have my POLK 1.2 SDA-SRS Speakers. I alternate with SUB always in play dialed in.

It is not the Listening Room Decware System. However, for Solid State Class AB, is enjoyable.

Happy Holidays to All!

CHEERS, Stone of Tone

Hi Lon, hope you had a great Holiday.

I have an order in with Dave Cahoon at Zen Wave Cables.

1) Phone not responsive.
2) Email rejected.

Anyone know he's okay?

Hi Larry, it was a very quiet one. My most exciting prospct for family fun was canceled due to an illness at that end. But it was okay to have a quiet one at home.

I have never enjoyed a Zen Wave product nor contacted the owner. Hope you can hear from him.

I wasn't ill, it was one of my wife's sisters who we were
due to visit who had gotten ill. She's better now. . .nasty flu going around, so I'm glad we didn't get exposed to it.

I don't expect much out of the holidays any longer. My family used to always meet up at "Mom and Dad's" but they are both gone and there is no "Mom and Dad's" any longer, and my siblings all go to their in-law's . . . . My in-laws are gone as well, and most of my wife's family that are in Ohio don't get together with us for political and religious reasons, more's the pity. Good thing Lucinda and I are introverts--and we know how to entertaina nd take care of each other.

Glad you got in touch with Dave.
