Our latest Reference speaker cable uses a 48 wire weave based around ultra pure 24 AWG solid copper wire each with its own foamed / cellular Flouropolymer dielectric surrounding a solid core of unbleached cotton. The weave design is a special helical litz arraygeometry which has many natural shielding effects without the detrimental effects of metal shielding.
With all good quality cables, the dielectric has been found to be just as important as the conductors themselves. With this in mind, virtually all our cables now concentrate on the quality of dielectric and its overall value. Foamed and cellular Flouropolymer has a very low dielectric constent of 1.4 and extremely low dielectric absorption. For comparison, Teflon has a constant of 2.1 and a perfect vacuum is 1.0.
The whole cable including banana plugs are then sent off for cryogenic treatment followed by a 4 day cable conditioning on our in house Audiodharma cable cooker.
