Just watched the whole video, sublime my friend! Glad to hear you are going to sell them, well done you! 👌👌👌👌👌

Building speaker cable and all cables is the most fun i've had in hi fi

[@mikeeygauthier2959]

One comment if I may, on tinning and soldering: it adds another layer of contact for the voltage current to pass through and I’m sure this would affect the sound quality. it would be the same as tinning the blades of the wall plug, would it not? Crimping with cold weld technology would be best. (Where are possible of course). Thank you for the video.

[@jakephilbrick7384]

There are very good reasons interconnects are coaxial..

[@gregorywall2479]

Great video.

[@arnivikingur]

Hi Ian , Which of these two is better or best ? Ultra woven Hi-end or Probably the best Analouge Interconnects in the world .?

[@tonynewman1694]

Another great cable , I have made a few of your cables and they are amazing , selling these seems like a great idea 😁

[@sensational_cellar8606]

When you say it’s the best interconnect in the weld, is that because welding is better than soldering for connections?

I just use vandame mic cable and neutrik connectors , all for twenty quid ,,, it is probably what it was recorded with in the first place , I have run half a million dollars worth of audio on leads I got from the supermarket before today ,,, I love the hi fi world , its total madness .

[@synaesthesia2010]

i tried the mic cable butyou can step up the quality further if you use Van Damme's Locap55 guitar cable and some Chinese knockoff WBT style plugs

[@samsmith2206]

Excuse my ignorance. Im thinking of making a set for connecting phonostage to preamp. Would this be suitable as ive seen comments about shielding etc. Obviously dont want to go to all the effort and the cable not be suitable. Any advice welcome.

[@tweakerman]

Hello, this cable is self shielding, by the way it is plaited, but if you're concerned, you can always use a silver plated braid over the top, or alternatively build 2 lengths of my ultra high end digital interconnects, that are triple shielded, check out the video, thanks for commenting & watching 👍

[@samsmith2206]

@@tweakerman Thanks for replying and all your hard work with the videos much appreciated.

[@drumbyte]

Excuse my ignorance, but why are there so few strands for carrying the signal.

[@synaesthesia2010]

he's using solid core wire which is better for carrying signals than stranded wire, solid core is better for low frequency details

[@BoredSilly666]

I would love to buy a set of your cables to try : )

[@jimsregaturntableshifijukebox]

I have a set and will be doing a review soon 😉

[@synaesthesia2010]

any chance of doing a tutorial on braiding them? i'm too cack handed to do it properly without help and i'd rather do it myself

[@tweakerman]

Hello, I show in the video on a small length, how to braid/plait them, take a look, thanks for commenting & watching👍

[@JonathanHolmes-l6q]

Started to make a set of these and found it easier to do the braiding by drilling hole in a piece of wood that was a snug fit to the braided size, pushing through the hole as you do the braiding, easier on the fingers and faster.

[@tweakerman]

Hello, but how do you remove the wood?

[@JonathanHolmes-l6q]

​​@@tweakermanIt was just a piece of 18mm thick plank with the hole drilled right through, with the wires poking through the hole , you just fold them over in your braiding pattern and as you continue the braided wire appears out the bottom of the hole until the complete length is finished, would send photo but don't know how!just to clarify, push 10mm of the bunched up wires through the hole, start braiding the wires with them laying flat on the board in a cross pattern, pushing the braid though the hole as you go.

[@nicktube3904]

Is this a starquad twist?

[@tweakerman]

No, a four way plait, thanks for commenting & watching 👍

[@nicktube3904]

Thank you Tweakerman! For a starquad I made a jig of wood with four holes for twisting. :)

Maybe you should make a microphone 👀 I could hardly hear ya

[@tweakerman]

Yes you're right, I do need a microphone, I'll pick one up soon, cheers 👍

@@jimsregaturntableshifijukebox it wasn't a personal dig, and it seems that he is aware that he should get a microphone.
