The Wireworld Silver Eclipse 52 interconnects are on CLOSEOUT at 50% off retail plus free shipping! Here is your chance to own one the best analog interconnects available. We are stocking 0.5M and 1.0M pairs terminated with RCA's and XLR's, but longer lengths will require special ordering.
Here are a few words from Wireworld's President, David Salz, explaining the benefits of the design:
"Our approach has always been to design cables that sound as close to a direct connection as possible in double blind listening tests" explains Wireworld president and chief engineer David Salz. "This means that in practice good cable design is all about minimizing the non-linear effects that degrade the audio signal. The theoretical ideal for this is to have a pair of conductors arranged in thin-walled concentric tubes to maintain completely consistent coupling between positive and negative conductors, thus minimizing adverse electromagnetic effects. The patented Symmetricoax design employed in all of our previous cables was a very effective way of approximating this ideal, and our reputation for lifelike sound quality was a direct result of this objective approach."
"The new interconnects feature a completely new design that improves on the Symmetricoax by approximating this ideal even more closely," continues Salz. "The five-squared reference interconnects employs four thin, flat conductors stacked in a parallel array that is then precisely wound into a helix shape. This keeps the coupling between all the conductors extremely precise over the cable's length, effectively neutralizing the electromagnetic losses. This Delineated Neutralizing Array design, or 'DNA' for short, is a dramatic step forward in terms of overall fidelity and performance compared to our previous designs, and those of our competitors."
While the helical DNA design is ideal for interconnects, it is too bulky and stiff for practical use in the larger sizes required for speaker level connections. For the five-squared series of single and bi-wire speaker cables, Salz had to adapt his stacked conductor arrangement for improved flexibility. The result is a series of twelve flat conductors stacked diagonally within a flat overall outer profile, dubbed 'Parallel DNA Design'. Each of the flat conductors is composed of a parallel group of six strands encased in high-density polyethylene. This arrangement provides for uniform conductivity across the entire audible spectrum, and minimizes all types of audible distortion for greater clarity and dymnamics than any previous speaker cable design.
Wireworld's Silver Eclipse 52 interconnects feature Teflon-insulated Ohno Continuous Cast (OCC) pure silver conductors with silver-clad Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) plugs. The Silver Eclipse 52 speaker cables feature 10-gauge OCC pure silver conductors with silver-clad OFC spade lug terminations, and are available in standard or bi-wire configurations.
