32awg 99.99% Pure Silver Wire Silk Wrapped - Tonearm Rewire?
Posted: Fri Feb 24, 2012 2:03 pm
I recently bought a roll of double silk wrapped pure silver wire which is 0.20mm in diameter which equates to
32awg which is the common diameter of tonearm wire.
I have made up an Ipod LOD cable with this cable and it sounds excellent. I am also going to experiment making up some
interconnects using this wire.
The silver wire itself is the same diameter as a human hair so is not suitable for speaker cable even if it was used in multiple strands, I can supply 16awg multistranded pure silver wire for this purpose but this is very expensive due to the extreme cost of silver.
If anyone is thinking of trying a DIY rewire on their tonearm I think this will prove to be an excellent wire for this purpose.
At €2.00 a metre it could be a real bargain too!
