Speaker cables make the best out of your speakers or bring new life into old ones with our fantastic range of speaker cable.
Bi wire speaker cable richer sounds.
Alternatively when the speakers provide separate bass and treble inputs further optimise system performance by bi wiring.
Speaker cables what you need to know.
Semi solid true concentric conductor design for low distortion.
How to bi wire your speakers.
Bi wiring will double the effective resistance and significantly increase the inductance as seen by the amplifier compared to a single wire arrangement using the effective total gauge of the bi wire cable.
Our carefully selected range makes it easy to find the right option for you.
The qed original bi wire is a 4 core version of the multi award winning speaker cable that s suitable for a wide range of both hi fi and av systems.
Normally only one cable connects the speaker to the amplifier.
Bi wire configuration will improve the sound since it improves bypasses the crossover when bi wiring you can choose different cables optimised for the different frequency ranges which will improve the overall reproduced sound.
Some higher performance amplifiers even have two sets of speaker connections to make it easier to connect things up.
At the speaker end they will separate and at your receiver or amplifier end they will typically be joined together.
How to run in speakers.
Bi wiring is a way of connecting a speaker to an audio amplifier.
If two power amplifiers are used in a traditional bi amp configuration bi wire cables are required to carry signal from both amplifier terminals to the high and low frequency speaker terminals.
In bi wiring each loudspeaker uses two cables one for the tweeter and one for the bass in the speaker which are then connected to the same amplifier.
Select the desired plugs spades from the qed airloc range and have them fitted to the cable.
Even though it is possible to bi wire using a single set of speaker terminals for best results use one amplifier with two sets of speaker outputs like the cambridge audio 851a.
The art of positioning speakers.
For true gains however what we really want to do is to bi amp.
To bi wire your speakers first remove those jumpers and use two sets of speaker cables.
Ideal for full range or single bi wire configurations use rocket 22 as a full range cable with red and black conductors grouped together.
Terminated to the length of your choice this cable is custom terminated to the length of your choice.
