"The Dream" Speaker cables

It blows my mind, how much hes spent on hifi yet settles for that speaker placement. Surely he moves it in a foot when listening.

A message from the owner of the system

"The drivers aren’t obscured by the rack when seated, if that’s what you mean.

The placement was done by ear but I will have another go now the amps are in the rack and the cables are in.

I have just bought a microphone to use with REW to measure the room. So may move things around based on this. For now the odd tow in is the best sounding.

The speakers aren’t spiked yet either so will do this when I have placement done"

SITREP

Having experienced what 'The Dream' speaker leads are capable of I had to follow through.
Now installed and the system has taken a mega uplift in sound. More clarity, more presence, more detail (hearing new things in recordings).

These really are a window into the recordings and show the full performance electrostatics are capable of.

Obviously.

All well and good in this budget setup but how about a high end one? 

Sounded great in your system. Glad you pulled the trigger on them as that system is now singing!!

Strangely my speaker wires make no difference to how my 64s sound, or Paul's 989s. Give em 4mm of copper and they're perfectly happy.

I don't think Vlad means to "Stir" Bigman, maybe he's in the percentage of us who are fed up with what comes across as yet another tedious shill, of yet another so claimed must have giant killing cable.

🤔

Now sing along:

Tedious shill, tedious shill, all I want for Christmas is a tedious shill ...

Now where can I find one?

Ohhh that's bad 😂

Haha, yes, that the one Zavfino make and sell.

What I made is out of the linked cable. Its the same conductor.

Have you read the bumff Macca?
It's gotta be worth the price, right......😂😂😂



All of the conductors used in our cables undergo Deep Cryo™ treatment before the insulation is extruded over the metals. Our research has proven that the conductor—and only the conductor— benefits from cryo-treatment. Materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC™), Teflon™, PE, and Silicon™ can all be adversely affected by cold-temperature annealing. Cryo-treating non-conductors and insulating materials can cause them to break down and become brittle.
The purity, size, and molecular structure of each conductor determine the specific temperature within the -186ºC to - a 196ºC range that we cryo-treat it at. Zavfino’s research into cold temperature physics has proven that the absolute lowest temperature is not necessarily the best for cryo-treatment.
This is a two-stage process. In the first stage we draw the bare conductor through a ceramic die into an ultrasonic cleaning chamber that bombards the conductor with multiple ultrasonic frequencies. This emulsification process removes all debris from the surface of the wire down to the molecular level and leaves absolutely zero residues.

UltraSonic 7 High Voltage / Thermal Break-in
This is a two-stage process. In the first stage we draw the bare conductor through a ceramic die into an ultrasonic cleaning chamber that bombards the conductor with multiple ultrasonic frequencies. This emulsification process removes all debris from the surface of the wire down to the molecular level and leaves absolutely zero residues. After each individual wire is processed, we strand it into bundles and then subject the bundles to further treatment. During the second stage of the ultrasonic burn-in, we increase the voltage to a higher level that’s just below the threshold of the conductor. This adjustment in temperature allows us to get a unique “break-in effect” normally associated with cables that have had 30 to 40 hours of signal and/or current run through them.

Zavfino’s H-Wound™ + Zero Strand Loss:
Drawing on more than 18 years of manufacturing experience, Zavfino has developed a remarkable new technique for twisting stranded wire tightly around a central solid-core conductor. An electrical phenomenon commonly known as the “skin effect” occurs when electrons move through any solid core conductor. Higher frequencies travel along the outside (the skin) of the conductor faster than midrange and lower echelon frequencies. This results in smeared PRaT, muddled instrumental timbres, and an unnatural sound. Zavfino’s new H-Wound™ manufacturing technique negates the skin effect. Originally developed by OEMs Siemens and Klangfilm, Zavfino uses a customized transformer wire-stranding machine. We further modified the gears in this machinery to create windings at a slower RPM ratio with a much tighter pitch. This patented manufacturing process enables us to twist the wiring at the tightest pitch possible without overlapping the wire strands. Most wire-stranding machines can only fabricate windings up to a maximum of 300 twists per meter. Setting the bar far higher, Zavfino’s patented H-Wound™ cable winding machine creates a pitch rate of 14,000 to 16,000 twists per meter; which is unmatched by any other audiophile cable maker. Zavfino’s new Zero Strand Loss™ manufacturing technique protects the bundled conductors from being damaged during stripping and termination. By ensuring that each core has zero chipped, cut, or mangled strands, we can guarantee that each insulated core is 100% identical. For audiophiles, the sonic results of tighter windings and Zero Strand Loss™ conductors are cables with quieter backgrounds, remarkable timbral accuracy, lifelike PRaT, jaw dropping mid-range resolution, and superior low frequency extension. Our new H-Wound™ stranding technology allows us to protect the delicate electrical signal being transferred through our cables. Combined with Zavfino’s state of the art manufacturing techniques, our precision matched OCC Copper (Cu) and Silver (Ag) conductors used in the Silver Dart™ A/C power cord bring an unequalled purity and honesty to all forms of music. The results are previously unheard details, finesse, and accuracy across the frequency spectrum.

Dont forget Westie, this is a shill thread 😂
