Looking for oil impregnated cotton dielectric sleeving

[zzodhi]

Want to try it on some power cords. Anyone know where I can track this down? Been Googling my brains out.

I've got some, only £399 / foot. Application of Audiophile unicorn oil is £1000 per 50 ml.

Sundial Wire might be able to help you out. They don't list anything like that, but they do have cloth covered wire and are quite serious about it. If what you're looking for exists, they'd probably know where to find it.

Much appreciated. Parts Connexion shows the casing on ready made wire. I've been reading a lot about natural casing and dialetics and would like to try it instead of the expandable sleeving.

It looks like the Sundial stuff has a PVC dielectric covered with cloth. Angela Instruments has old-style cloth dielectric wire. I believe Percy Audio does too. This stuff is particularly popular among audiophiles in Japan, so you can probably find it on eBay too.

Thanks Alan. I was hoping right now to just find the sleeving that I could cover the wires that I already have built.

I doubt that unicorn oil will offer much of an improvement over standard snake oil.
