Description
Supra Quadrax 2X4.0 : Speaker Cable
Price for 2 X 3 meters
The Quadrax 4×2.0 sq. mm cable is based upon two specific Supra ideas:
1) The tin-plated OFC conductors themselves are based on the braided construction as used in the Ply Series, excepting that a central polypropylene dielectric is used to minimise inductance
2) The 4 conductors are arranged in a 2×2 grid, so that each conductor is « paired » with the conductor which is diagonally opposite, which reduces inline inductance and capacitance.
The resulting speaker cable is then terminated in a number of ways to suit customer needs.
We can offer factory-terminated Quadrax cables:
i) As standard, wired for bi-wiring, in « 2 to 4 » configuration (cables are « paired » at the amplifier end, but are terminated separately at the speaker end).
ii) We can also supply these cables for bi-amp use, with the cables configured in « 4 to 4 » mode, with each conductor being terminated separately at both ends.
iii) In « shotgun » configuration, (ie « 2 to 2 ») with all of the conductors being « paired » at both ends. This effectively doubles the number of strands carrying the signal to the speaker and in some cases may be preferred to bi-wiring.
We mostly keep the bi-wired variant in stock in a range of lengths, with the other versions available « to order ». Standard fittings are Supra CombiCon Crimp bodies, with either Banana/BFA tips or Spade connectors.
However, it is also available « off the reel » for those who wish to terminate the cable themselves.
