LOL, hehe... Trust me, they'll be even nicer when I have them re-veneered to look more like these (Yorks):

Btw, Big Ears Audio (where I traded-in my Spendors for the Lockwoods) have got the Spendors up for sale, if anyone's interested, looking rather nice after being French polished (scroll down to the second pair shown):

How did I live with something so 'tiny' for six years?

Marco, this is a genuine question, but were you told to twist the "Wind" speaker cables together? I don't have huge experience of them, but I was told to lay each conductor separately on the set I sold as this was why they were supplied as two separate leads per speaker... They certainly sounded good with the Amati Homage speakers they went with...

My setup isn't as neat, but I've tried to keep the mains and signal cables apart and it works well for me.

Hi Dave,

See here (where I bought it from):

...noting this bit:

Before connecting The WIND Mk II HYBRID to your equipment we advise to mildly twist both leads to keep them together.

I might revisit it, though. I can't say I've heard a big difference either way - they sound superb, regardless

Marco.

Because if they are, you should take a lesson from Dave!!!!

Hi Guys,
I'm always available for i/c and wiring advice if any of you have particularly complex systems to set up - the previously posted pic is just one of many similar layouts I can put together - any questions, just ask.

Note to Admn.:
Please do NOT add this post to the proposed sticky on offers of help to members !!

Cheers,

It's a very impressive wiring loom, Dave.

Just one thing though - It's about the bowline you've got your left hand speaker cable tied into. I think you must've made it so the rabbit went round the tree too many times before he bobbed back into his hole.

.............so you weren't in the Scouts then?

Hi Chris,
Oh yes I was in the Scouts (a long long time ago and can't remember which Patrol I was in

), and it's not a bowline, running or otherwise

. It might just be a Granny but she's no longer around to ask so I can't be sure

Cheers,
