Van Damme 6mm

[Pieoftheday]

I'm using van Damme 4mm studio speaker cable it, really can't fault it, but you know how it is, it s there anything to be gained going to the 6mm stuff?

The 6mm really is top notch.

Not sure if there would be much point unless you're running really long cables (5m+?) or like the look of thicker cables.

6mm gets a :thumbsup: from me. Its trumped a few cables.

I have the 6mm version , but have not owned the 4mm version

I am happy with the 6mm but they are rather chunky looking ;) and blue

yes my 4mm is blue, i was thinking of the 6mm version that Mark Grant sells it seems to have a transparent covering that might suit the living room decor better;) just wondered if it might be a better cable too:)

Isn't the clear covered one called 'Hifi' as opposed to the Blue being the studio one?
And a few folk reckon it's better than the blue?

Personally I took Gazjams advice and bought some Talk Cable 3 which bettered the Blue that I had previously.

Yes it is referred to as HIFi, I'll probably take punt after my hols

I like the Van Damme HiFi cables for a few reasons, minimum use of dielectric (for some reason haven't got on with thick PVC cables), spaced cables so low capacitance (good for my old Exposure amps) & do think that metal purity can have a part to play too, providing other components in the chain has the same attention played to metal purity & 'linear crystal' construction. YMMV though, in any case, it's not big differences.

I use 4mm Van Damme Tour Grade Black on the woofers of my speakers (Exposure, Linn K20, Naim NacA4 and A5 are all 4mm cables) and it works very well (though difficult to judge in isolation). I probably would have gone to 6mm but the 4mm only just fits the SpeakON connectors I use as it is. The 4mm Tour Black is already very chunky stuff too - not that hiding cables is an issue for me.

I'M just in the process of going from Van Damm 6mm to 3mm solid core silver in PTFE. I may even try Duelund silver in oil and cotton.
