Hi,

Is it still possible to find the spiral style cable as used for the Red Line Speakers? Either replica or NOS. I thought it would be a nice touch to get that period feeling from old B&O catalogues.

Regards,

Mikael

Those are the ones!

Ouch, that Ebay auction ended quite high for a pair of 20 year old cables if you add the shipping...

I wonder if Steve could make some, though quite what the effect of coiling wire has on the sound would be interesting! Probably very little if truth be known!

They are difficult to find and I've seen them go for much more than this.
These even have one of the plugs cut off which affects the price negatively.

It would add some inductance to go with the capacitance of having two evenly spaced conductors. Probably to very little effect as you said.
