Andrew,
you had a chance yet to try the 12 gauge speaker cable over the 16 yet? :)
Interested in seeing if thats a worthwhile change or not.
Really like the 16, works really well in my system.

What is so special about the Dueland cable? Stranded nickel-plated copper over solid silver - I thought you were an argyrophile?
argyrophile - a lover of silver, aurophile - a lover of gold. I'm an oenophile - a lover of wine. :)
But you're not the only user of Dueland cable; so what is their attraction over other speaker cables? In other words, why are you using them?
Andrew, a question skweezy pleeze?
Making up a couple of sets on interconnects in the new year with the 16 gauge Duelund, did you find the interconnects made as much of a difference than running it as speaker wire?
If so, did you find any particular plug to be the best in this application?
ta much.
Gaz (?),
It was very difficult to get the Belden 8402 microphone cable and Mine came from POLAND!!! To this day I still use this alongside Switchcraft 3502AAU RCA’s. I have three pairs of IC's that I've made up over the years. I've not tried the 16 Gauge Duelund but you might be interested in this https://jeffsplace.positive-feedback...le-at-dealers/ it might save you a lot of time and effort?!!?? I've not had the "REAL SOUND" system up and running in nearly 7 weeks now. It was supposed to be a winter project but my Radford Pre-amp got buggered and my time has been recently taken up with this https://theartofsound.net/forum/show...84-My-new-deck . I will be running a Garrard 301 as the front end in the "REAL SOUND" system with a SME 3009 and a 3012 running SPU's and classic MM's. Sorry I can't comment on the 16 gauge stuff. :oops:
no need to buy from poland,you can get it here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Belden-84...72.m2749.l2649
i also tried it with the switchcraft rca's and thought they were awful,the kle's went straight back again.
Thanks Andy,
Been reading the Jeffsplace Blog for a while now, that’s what got me interested in the Duelund stuff.
Use the 16 gauge stuff unterminated as suggested by the blog into my H2’s, just sounds “right”.
So curious about the interconnects as well, make a couple of sets up in the new year and post back.
Looking at the KLEI’s myself actually.
You could try some of the fancy new Duelund RCA's but I don't think I'll be bothering. I may try some pure copper RCA's at the moment. I'm trying to do a system without an Silver in it!
