Outer Jacket - Teflon Tape
Geometry - Internal Twisted, Cross Linked
ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Nom. Capacitance - 18.9 pF/ft
Nom. Conductor DC Resistance - 20.3 Ω/1000 ft
Nom. Inductance - 0.12 µH/ft

Speaker cable:
THE CABLE DESIGN
8 conductors, 160 5N Pure Silver strands (each channel)

Hi
Whoever first gets to burn in and listen to these cables, please post your [humble

] impressions. I am in the market for an short interconnect in the 80-120 USD range and this cable, while a little pricey, is perking my interest. Hey, this is Head-fi, gotta spend some $$, right?

Hey guys,


Yes, I have received the Silver Resoulution IC's and they are still burning in. I will post a few impressions when I get home from work tonight.

Sorry for the delay.

I wish I had remembered this thread. I recently ordered a pair of Zu Gede ICs. They should be here tomorrow.
I was going to give these a try, and I completely forgot about them.

I want to see how these cables would compare to the Bogdan (Bodgan) Silver Princess

In my initial e-mail to Signal cable, asking when the specs would be out, Frank said they were hands down better in every way than Nordosts SPM which is quite a lofty claim. I only have Nordost Red Dawn to compare to.

That should be interesting.
I'll be comparing them with Audioquest Coral and Viper.
Those m-paths were also on my short list, but I got a pair of 1.5m Gede for $146 off of eBay.

my personal experience on the m-path is they are warm and kind of smooth. on the other hand the diamondback is slightly more detailed in treble area with less bass and more harsh sounding.

meh...the differences aren't that great anyway.

Is the SPM the Bogdan Silver Princess? What are the Red Dawns?
