If you require a Bi-wire loudspeaker cable that wont break the bank this is an excellent choice.

Similar in construction to the very popular VanDamme Blue Series speaker cables the Black Series feature fine stranded conductors and utilise the latest PVC composite jacket materials to provide the highest level of flexibility married with totally efficient signal transmission.

This range of cables is ideal for HiFi 'Stereo' and Home Theatre 'Multi channel' installations where you want to Bi-wire your loudspeakers.

VanDamme use a higher purity oxygen free copper for the conductors which improves the ‘solderability’ and conductivity of the conductor resulting in faithful and transparent signal reproduction.

With the Multicore cables individual colour coded conductors are wrapped around a compressible hollow synthetic filler which is filled with natural textile fibres. Any undue torsion imposed on the speaker conductors during flexing is dissipated through this special filler preventing possible buckling or deformation of the cable.

• 4mm Multicore designed for high power systems
• 2.5mm cable specifically designed to fit in XLR connectors
• Newly developed multicore construction method

4 x 4.0mm Black Series SRP £8.65/m - PowerBuy price £4.46/m
4 x 2.5mm Black Series SRP £5.49/m - PowerBuy price £2.80/m

Prices are for un-terminated lengths - custom length 7.1 and 5.1 cable kits including 4mm Banana plugs or Spade connectors can be specified; please call for details.

Prices shown are Inclusive of VAT.

Hello Stel

The 4x2.5mm cable ought to be sufficient - if you can accommodate it the 4x4.5mm wont do any harm and may be a better option if you have high powered amplification.

I'll PM you pricing details tonight.

Best regards

Joe

[lone ranger]

Hi m8, sent a reply to your pm, probably looking at arcam 350 or very similar for my amplification/receiver needs so your cable should be nice.
pretty know what gear i want,installing all the cabling now as build is progressing,yet to buy hardware,just getting cables ready and put to bed first.

[smanaton]

hi,

i'm after some new cables for my fronts and center, i would like 2 x 2.5m (4x4mm) and 1 x 1m (4x4mm) all terminated with banana plugs, can you give me a price for that please.

i have 2 runs to go to the rear speakers, the rears are KEF TDM34DS and the surround back are KEF TDM65DS, they are both single binding posts and i guess i would be looking for a pair of 10m and a pair of 7m would you recommend the Vandamme blue 2x2.5mm? could i have a price for that too.

Thanks,

Shane

[braiden]

Hi Joe can you please give me a price for 10m of 4 x 2.5mm Black Series with post and packaging. Also do you think that this cable will be ok for my MA BR2's, form an old Kenwood KA3020 soon to be upgraded to rotel RA04.

Many Thanks

Breaiden

[Joe Fernand]

Hello braiden

The 4x2.5mm will be ideal - I take it you want the cables 'paired' at the Amplifier end or does the amp offer you bi-wire outputs?

Joe

[braiden]

Hi Joe

At the moment I have the HF's running off Speaker "A" and the LF's running of Speaker "B". I did originally have the speaker cable paired at the amp end so that the speakers were Bi-Wired All from Speaker "A", but for some reason the speaker sounded muddled at increased volumes and I was not happy with the Bass.

However after wiring them Via speakers A+B they sound much better. I have heard that Cables with silver in them can make the MA's sound overly bright, hence my curiosity to try a different speaker cable along with relocation of the speakers.

I also realise that the amp is probably a factor so going to upgrade that soon too.

Many Thanks

Braiden

[Oogster]

Hi Joe,

I have just bought a power amp and am looking to bi-amp my speakers. I require two 12 metre runs of bi-wire cable.

Which would you recommend?

Would the 4 x 4mm make a noticeable difference over the 4 x 2.5mm?

How much would it cost to have the cable pre-terminated with banana plugs?
Do you solder the plugs or are they the regular screw thread banana plugs?

Rgds

[Joe Fernand]

Hello oogster

I've used the 2x2.5mm and 4x2.5mm on some pretty exotic speakers so not sure that its essential to go to the 4x4mm cable.

We can Screw, Solder or Crimp your preferred connections to suit your requirements.

I'll PM prices to you over the weekend.

Joe

[Sheepking]

im pretty sure this is what i'd need.

2x 4.0mm 1.5m length with banana plugs to bi amp my dm603s3 from a yamaha 4600

1x 1m 4.0mm length with 4 banana plugs at one end and 2 at the amp end to biwire the centre (if this can be done).

Can you PM me a price?

[Joe Fernand]

Hello Sheepking

Many folk argue that all loudspeaker cables 'sound' the same!!!

That said a fair few folk have replaced the QED Silver Anniversary cable with VanDamme Blue and Black Series cable and reported a less bright sound which they preferred.

Getting 2x4.0mm into a single 4mm plug is tricky!

I'll PM details later today.

Joe

[CSGardner]

Hi Joe,
I have a new setup to connect - connections will be between Arcam P7 and various PMC (GB1's and TB2 centre) speakers (all bi-wired). I'm assuming that the 4 x 2.5mm will provide the best flexibility and convenience - but if your experience says the 4mm is required, just quote that instead.

At speakers ends, I'd like (soldered) Spade terminals. All the PMC speakers have the same connectors - so I'm guessing you know what size spades are required.

At the Amp end, Banana plugs are more convenient please. (I'm assuming that the 'rigid' part of the plug does not extend more than one inch or so from the connector? .. I ask, as there is only approx 2" of easy clearence from one of the P7 terminals due to stand design. If there is a problem here - I guess spades are the only solution).

All connectors to be soldered please.

Front LR: 2 x 2m for Bi-AMP connections (ensure there is 5" of 'fly' lead exposed at amp end - as there is a 5" gap between the 2 amp modules in use)

Centre: 1 x 2m for Bi-Wire connection ('paired' at amp end)

Surround LR: 2 x 12m for Bi-Wire connection ('paired' at amp end)

Delivery to KT16 9AP

thanks for a quote,
Chas

[podman]

Joe,

Could I please have a quote for the following:

2x 2.0m of the 4mm cable, each with 4x banana's at one end and 4x spades at the other (so altogether 8 banana's and 8 spades).

Cheers

Danny

[Joe Fernand]

Hello podman

You have a PM.

Joe

[juniper]

Greetings Joe

I'd like a quote for the following:

1 x 7m biwire
1 x 4m biwire
1 x 3m biwire

(All 4 x 2 connections please)

All connected with banana plugs.

I'm outputting from a Pioneer Ax 10Ai-S into B&W 7 series speakers, so will take your advice as to whether the 2.5 or 4mm will be required.

Thanks in advance!

[juniper]

Please ignore my previous request - I have sourced from elsewhere.

[Bluestraw]

I'm moving house and looking to make a better wiring job on my system than previously! I have a Denon 2807 and some Monitor Audio RS6 fronts with matching centre and rears. I was thinking of bi-wiring the fronts, and using the blue series for the rest. Would that make sense?

If so, I'll need

FL - 4m
FR - 2.5m
C - 1.5m
BL - 10m
BR - 13.5m

which makes 6.5m of bi-wire and 25m of the single. Not sure what 'grade' of cable I need - though rears will need to run under edge of carpet across doorway.

Would appreciate a quote, and advice is also very welcome

[Joe Fernand]

Hello Bluestraw

Mixing the Black Series 4x2.4mm for the front LCR with the Blue Series 2x1.5mm for the Surrounds will work fine - the 2x1.5mm can be run alongside your carpet gripper without causing a big bump.

I'll drop you a PM with pricing.

Joe

[mac_monkey]

Hi Joe,

After being so impressed with the VD Blue you sent me I'm thinking about bi-amping my speakers.

Could you please send me the following quotes:

2x 2m of 4.0mm Black Series terminated with Banannas (16 bananas in total)

and in case I'm feeling frivolous...

2x 2m of 4.0mm Black Series terminated with QED Airlocs (16 Airlocs in total)

Cheers

Tom

[Joe Fernand]

Hello mac monkey

Upgrade-itise is an expensive and never ending slippery slope

I'll PM pricing later today.

[Shockabuku]

Hi Joe,

Many thanks,

[Joe Fernand]

Hello shockabuka

I'll PM overnight.

Joe

[Shockabuku]

Super, cheers

[Shockabuku]

Just to confirm...2.5mm is roughly equivalent to 10 AWG?

[mac_monkey]

Any chance of that quote Joe

[Joe Fernand]

Morning mac_monkey and Shockabuku

You both have PM's.

Joe

[Jaunty]
