...in speaker systems.

I guess I'll be using something like that in that I'll use 18- plus 20g. (net = c. 15.9g.) for the bass/MR array (of 8 4-Ohm drivers wired series/parallel for 8 Ohms). I'll run the same wiring back to the amp with as few solder joints as possible.

The tweeters, 8 Dayton 8-Ohm mag.-planars wired S/P for 16 Ohms, will use 24- plus 27g. (= net 22g.) all the way back to the amps. All conductors will be solid silver, the larger ones in Teflon airtubes and the smaller removed from HomeGrown's woven cables and with extruded Teflon.

Here's a pic of last nite's progress; tweeters W/B in today!
