DNM Stereo Solid Core Precision speaker cable DNM Stereo Solid Core Precision sets new standards of audio resolution in a compact cable that is ideal for smaller audio systems. Advanced characterisation methods were developed to design the magnetic performance and to provide balanced capacitance, inductance and resistance - factors that, when correctly aligned, can improve the amplifier's sound quality. See the HiFi World November 2007 review.
DNM Stereo Solid Core Precision cable is semi-transparent, fully colour coded and only 18.7mm wide x 2.2mm thick-- about the same size as the original DNM mono Solid Core. However, within this small size is contained a dual cable assembly that can be used to connect a pair of stereo speakers, or to bi-wire. (See the illustration.) The cable ribbon is designed to easily "unzip" to separate the dual speaker lines and the individual conductors to allow easy fitting of the speaker plugs.
The recommended way of using the new DNM Stereo Solid Core Precision cable is as follows:- The cable directionality can be determined by noting that the print runs in the same direction as the signal. At the amplifier end separate the cable just enough to allow the plugs to be fitted and plugged into the amplifier. Then try to run the ribbon complete without separating it as far as possible towards the speakers to gain the full performance benefit of the fixed spacing of all the conductors. Run the cable along the planned path to the furthest speaker before cutting it to length. Then separate the cable ribbon into the two channels back to the point midway between the speakers to allow connection to the left and right speakers. See the illustration.
