Understanding The Issues
Speaker cables may be the most misunderstood audio components. Many believe that using heavier gauge speaker wire will minimize audible losses, but they are wrong. While increasing the thickness of a conductor does reduce resistive loss, which wastes amplifier power in the form of heat, it also increases inductive (electromagnetic) loss, which causes much of the degradation that we actually hear from cables. Clearly, an optimal speaker cable would minimize both resistance and inductance to preserve as much of the original sound as possible.
WireWorld's Solution
Everyone knows that magnetic force varies with distance, so it should come as no surprise that the positive and negative conductors of a cable need to be very close together to minimize electromagnetic loss.

“A very good budget cable which equals any of its peers in midrange and treble and beats almost all in the bass.”
Luna 16/4, Hi-Fi Choice, April ‘07
Our straightforward design process ensures that all Wireworld speaker cables provide the highest fidelity for their cost, which varies dramatically according to the quantity and quality of materials contained in each cable. Those material upgrades enable each step upward in the line to let more music through, which is our ultimate goal. Isn’t it yours?
