Stager Silver Solids
pure silver interconnect cable |
I’ve been making pure silver solid core interconnect cables for about fifteen years, and for the last fourteen years I’ve been selling them over the net.
I originally set out to find the best cables available for something less
than $500 per meter-pair and found that I could make my own for far
less which were the equal of Kimber and MIT selling for even more than
my $500 upset price. I found .999 purity (which means 99.9%, not
99.999%) fine silver to be the best wire. Silver, while only slightly
more conductive than copper, will never lose conductivity as it
tarnishes with age as is the case with copper. A symmetrical, unshielded
unbalanced pair is the best configuration for maximum bandwidth and musical
transparency. Teflon insulation is second only to air in its dielectric
properties. Good, tight solder joints solidly bonding silver to gold,
not sandwiching the solder, are essential. The gold plated Canare F-10
RCA connectors are beautifully made and built to last, have a nice, tight
fit, and provide exceptional connectivity. Their 1 pF capacitance makes
any audible difference from overpriced "high-end" connectors entirely
imaginary.
This combination of attributes results in a true state-of-the-art
interconnect cable - at a price which is sane and reasonable. There are
many more expensive cables on the market and some may have a more
impressive outward appearance, but their ability to pass electrons from
one component to another will not be superior, and will likely be inferior.
I have not set out to make audio jewelry, just the very finest performing
audio interconnect regardless of price, period. And with no frills, no
fancy packaging or expensive ads in audiophile magazines, and no dealer
markups, you do not have too spend a ridiculous amount of money for a
superb pair of interconnect cables.
You get pure performance.
Guaranteed or your money back.
