ATTENTION: after further analysis with Waterloo University we have discovered that SKW cables are not made with OCC copper. All the details here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jrx8hZx22qnPl6M.html The sonics remain excellent for the price but the materials are different from what believed

I bought these cables and it cured my COVID. Ya gotta buy these, even my wife's boyfriend love's em!

Amazing that so many people are stuck on China, yet clearly haven't looked at where their own stuff is made, or have a problem shopping at Wal-Mart. I purchased the same 3 meter speaker cable from the review for my front 3 theater speakers and the 2 Atmos channels built into my towers, as well as SKW's HDMI 2.1 cables for my interconnects, about 3weeks ago. Replaced some old Monster Cable from years back. I'm currently running a Yamaha Aventage A4A and Definitive Technologies BP 9080x series all the way around. Noticeable difference across all metrics. Imaging, soundstage, clarity, detail, bass depth, all were enhanced. It did take about 2 weeks for them to settle, once they did, even non-audiophiles noticed the difference immediately. I don't have any technical data to back up anything, but your ears don't lie. These sound good. Had to adjust speaker levels after switching. For $150/pair, best investment. They have a set of silver plated speaker/RCA cables, but I wasn't trying to spend $450/pair.

I’ve always been apprehensive about trying pricy speaker cables and always resisted doing so, but when I saw this video and heard the price I thought, if I’m ever going to try it cables this way he the way to go ,so I Took the leap so to speak and have had them in my system for Almost a full week now and I have to say, I’m enjoying the hell out of them and don’t regret the purchase one bit! Thank you sir for making this video!

Pretty much on the basis of this video (as there are not any other real reviews of these cables), I tried them with my Rotel amp/B&W front speakers. They were a MAJOR improvement from my old bulk cables from the store, right out of the box (without a “break-in” period, if that is real or not). I liked them so much that I bought a second pair for the second pair of speakers. The system has for sure had a major upgrade, and for a modest outlay of money! I would describe the sound as clear and precise, but silkier, smoother, with warmth and depth - what I like! Thank you for the great tip! 😀

LOL have been using these for 2 months now. originally bought it for its looks (high end), though the specifics of the cables and its price made a huge part in chosing them. and yes they are absolutely fabolous

Thanks for sharing this, ordered and received them a couple of days later and I have to admit never thought this would have such an influence on the sound experience.

Thank you great post, been looking for new cables.

Thanks, this is just what I was looking for!!!

nice video. I have their RCA cable, very nice sound and quality.

Very cool I have a vintage McIntosh and those cables look amazing

found out about these a little late, but got a pair today. So damn impressed about the build quality for the price! looks and feels like cables for 1000 usd. No diffrence

Thanks for the hot tip! Happy Holidays!

Interesting, thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you and your awesome channel!

Thank you for your recommendation, at first cables are a little harsh can be due to my horn speakers. But man after a 3 weeks to a month MAGIC does happen. For the price you can't go wrong my system has all skw rca and speaker cables very happy 😀

I was longing to find one. Thx and Merry Christmas.

Hi, after watching your video I bought OCC Copper for my Speaker Cable & Interconnect,,, man it beats my 10X more costly Branded Copper Silver Coated speaker cable flat. Basically it allows much more information to flow thru the cable and I am hearing details which was never present before.. A million Thanks

Nice speaker cables. I myself use Siltech a special speaker cable and very expensive. I have 5 other brand speakers and I have to say that all 6 do their job well. But the topper in my High-end equipment is the Siltech the best. Not because they are the most expensive speaker cables, but because the MATCH is simply the best MATCH with the Siltech. Thank you for this video. Peace and love and of course High-end and Music was born Analog... ✌😘👌👍😉

Thanks to this review I got to know SKW and today I have just received my order of a full set of copper OCC cables (speaker cables, RCA & USB). I have just replaced my existing Belden Gold USB with SKW BG-012 (Copper OCC) and the initial impression is very positive. Straight off, I can hear piano notes sound more 3 dimensional. Will replace the RCA this weekend and subsequently the speaker cables.

Thank you for the video... Ordered mine after watching.

I was think that this cables will not be better to my Kimber PR8, but I was completely wrong. When they come to my country I need to wait about one month to get it and pay taxes 55$. The sound is incredible! Everything is smoother with more air cleaner and clearer. Finally to my ears voice is true to life and in my opinion my kimber did couldn't accomplish that. Hats off my friend for your video for this cables. Big thank you from my heart and wish you all the best.

Nice cables, gonna look into those.

Love the new lighting brother!

Very nice deal. I like them... Have a Merry Christmas ⛄. Thanks for all the fantastic information and great videos.. ♥️👍🎅

I think at that price, it’s worth an experiment, thank you great video.

hello anadialog , I finally got this famous 3 meter occ cable. And wow, what a slap, it's a killing. I rediscovered the sound of my jbl ti 250 jubilee thanks to your advice. what sound opening, increased precision in the medium, controlled bass. For my part, I use the spade connections from my power amp to go to the speakers by the banana connections, then finally a oehlbach jump! straps to inter connect the 2 terminal blocks. A great thanks !!!!!!

Believe or not you the only one you review this cable on youtube , i own this cable and the USB and they sound great !!! Like them very much , but i also have others manufactured cable and they all have they pro and con w unfortunately no cable is perfect.

I have a Marantz 2230B and ordered the cable and pin connectors. The linc for the UK and Italy are correct but the linc for the US is not. That connector is for a bare wire. Love the cable. Waiting for new pin connectors. Appreciate all the information you provide.

What a contentious subject. I’ll say these cables look well constructed and have good connectors. Compared to other custom cables they are inexpensive. I’d also like to add that I’m watching from the US and just heard you originate in Italy. I think you’re English is outstanding.

Good for surround and rear speakers

Hi from Brazil my friend. I need to come here tell you that I'm became a fan of your channel and give my support for your great skill to talk easily about some complicates notes of this fantastic audio world, solids knowledge's and carism. About the SKW cables I put this in my desired list but can't find this do buy in any place. Regards, Luciano

Thanks for the review. I picked up some SKW speaker cable and interconnects today with your affiliate link. Hope you made a few off it.

Excellent

Hey guido, i just got these cables to connect my rt85 up to my avr,i think i paid $ 35 us for a 1.5 meter dual rca cable nice high quality cable

I have bought these speaker cables about a month ago...the first days the sound was a little weird..they needed some time about a week to be ready....Now...I enjoy them....every single time I play something in my system....very pleasant open sound full of dynamics and finesse....I am so happy with them! I also have taken the interconnects of the same company...they also are incredible! Thank you Anadialog!

Great sounding speaker cables.

Great video. Thanks. Just ordered. And you got “gage” right. Good job my friend.

Thank you for the review. You don't have to pay with an arm and a leg to get good sounding cables.

Awesome

Thank you so much; I enjoy your channel and decided to trust your recommendations...wow! I love these cables. the beauty, the functionality and the flawless sound is the best. Buy-buy Kimber and your horrific cable cost. I have three systems and I am changing out all their cables to OCC interconnects and speaker cables from SKW. While I still think that people put too much value on cables (diminishing performance), these cable/interconnects strike the perfect balance. My search is over! Thank you again.

Hi, guys! Merry Christmas and happy new year !

I was going to upgrade speakers, but I'll just buy these instead. Way cheaper to change the sound of my system with budget speaker cables. 😵‍💫 Gimme some more of that Kool aid!

I bought 4 of these cables. Brothers THESE Cables r like small garden snake thick. They r no joke. I mean thick to the point where they can't get tangled THEY CAN'T 🤣. Great

I bought these cables and a pair of QED revelation cables for a little more. If they are as good as the QED, It’ll be be my goto especially with the adapter ends. It would be nice to have some flat ends on the adapters so you can tighten them down securely or remove them with a small wrench.

Thanks!

I like them.

Hi man, this cabe in particular can be used for guitar/bass guitar? (with a 6.5 plug) regards!!

Hi. Watching ur video really trigger me to try out. Before i order i would like to have ur opinion whether it will match my setup. Currently am using nordost flat line speaker cable hook up with quad s2. Am using preamp tube 27 and solid state ampilifier. Currently my “complaint” on my setup is soundstage and high notes. Will this skw cable match my system ?

Hi, another great video! Did someone try the SKW XLR Cables??

Whoa! I own those. Wish they were thicker though.

Wow this was a great alternative to the Ramm Cables. Still need to know if I have separate binding posts for woofers and twetter on my speakers if running separate cables is really better. If that is the case the Rams will be almost cheaper because they give the ability to run one cable and separate the wires for the double binders as you show in the diagram on video 2 of DIY speaker cables..

Double shielded, is good. Would like other options, silver coated copper, ofc, and up to 10AWG… of course price will have to change.

Thank you for the video and Kind Regards. I purchased SKW speaker and interconnect cables per your recommendation and am happy with the result except for the problem I wish seek advice for namely the interconnect cables from the CD player to the amplifier I could only part way install because of a tight fit and as the shell of the SKW RCA connector is tapered without a blunt end so there is nothing to press against with the result that the tight fit would not completely be pressed in but only part way. The signal still goes through as I have audio output but would prefer a solid complete full install. Any advice? Thank You Kindly Cheerios

Good morning from Singapore

THANK YOU. Great review.. an honest company with an honest price... i saw another very good video about the difference between Silver and Copper Cables (as you know the price of Silver Cable is astronomical). he explained that the % conductivity of Silver is 105 , and the Copper is 100 . is it worth paying so much more $$$$$ for the extra 5% ??! . i don't think so IMO of course.. i'm also gonna check out the RAMM Audio Cables. (do you have your own review about RAMM ?). thanks again for your inputs.

I spent nearly £1000 on cables and for me the experience of not having to put up with those bloody radio frequency sounds was so well worth it, in fact I've kept my old speaker cables in place so I'm able to show my friends the difference in sound quality (interference) and to be fair nearly all of friends can't pick out the difference, that is until I point it out to them! The thing is I had been putting up with radio frequencies/electric magnetic interference for the first couple of years only because I wasn't quite sure what it was, the point iam trying to make... it was only after was able to differentiate between mechanical noise and radio frequencies that I finally was able to move forward and sort this problem out! They do say audio is subjective therefore some people are able to pick up on radio frequencies and some people are not, so if you're one of these fortunate Souls who don't pick up on radio frequencies just count yourself lucky!

Ok, I have a 1961 Harman Kardon 1&2 and A&B, I am having the Citation 2 amp restored with "Jim McShane Kit". I an using Altec Lansing C40 Harkness. With my Dads AR-XA Shure. Not my Lynn LP-12. I am going to us the Gold cables. I need something right now and they look ok. My dad built these back then and felt honored when my dad let you pick up the needle and change the record side. You seen pretty sure on this. What do you think of my Dads Gear in 1961. and people ask you what there system sounds like when I grow up with the best. I will video system when done in the end of January.

One Pair Xangsane oxygen-free copper（OFC） audio speaker cable HI-FI high-end amplifier speaker cable Banana plug cable Saw in a chinese site, good reviews. May try

Hi, the nakamichi link doesn’t work for either the UK or US. Didn’t check Italy. Is the another product exactly like that? I have JBL L112’s, vintage.

Wow... sooooooo much.

Great intro hahaha

Hi, I bought them end my impression is an enhanced low frequency and an emproved stage, more center and with good separation between the instruments but the meed range is quite laid back and the high frequency is not so bright resulting in a muddy sound signature! Overall a good quality construction still a good buy in my opinion i hope someone can share their impressions as well...peace! Update: after the burn in things are better meed range is still a bit laid back.

Sound good out the box, bass improvement is what I noticed over current cables? . I will try for 3 weeks.. Did you hear much improvement over time? Thanks

I just bought their RCA cables for my newly bought 1200gr. Hope they are good.

The same goes for the SKW OCC (BGO4) analog interlinks (RCA): highly recommended. Better than Oyaide Neo d Class A !! And half the price.

These are oem, they sell under several different brands. Very popular.

Thks , you are a gem 💎 when it comes to analogue audio 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So would you go for these or the Zavifino?

I believe this set of speaker cables is SKW BG-05. SKW has a more expensive set of speaker cable (SK-HF2017) with silver plated copper OCC and 3 layers of shielding. Wonder if you plan to review this as well.

'OhNo' is the noise I made the first time I saw the sticker price on a pair of Nordost speaker cables ;)

Hi! What about the WG Serie? Have you ever tested it? Thanks!

CIao Guido, intanto tanti auguri di fine anno e inizio anno nuovo! Ho preso su amazon quello per RCA da 2m per collegare il lettore CD all'ampli; volevo prendere anche quello che hai mostrato nel video per gli speaker... solo che non capisco, su amazon mostra solo quello da 1,5m, se metto quello da 3 metri mi cambia il tipo di cavo mostrandomi quello ottico... non riesco quindi a scegliere quel cavo di 3 metri (sì la cassa destra è un po' distante dall'ampli).

It would be nice to see a comparison or your thoughts on these cables versus things likeAudio quest rocket line of cables

Ooooh yes MAMA!

Nice cable's. Can you say that they will sound nice with Ribbon and Electrostatic speakers?

Have you tried C2G Velocity speaker cable? You will have to terminate them yourself but it is another low-cost alternative to the expensive designer brands. I've compared them to Discovery and MIT

Micca cables are pretty good

Hi there, i ve bought them and they are indeed very nice with my Lintons wharfedale , more clarity and details for a copper cable . Very nice for a really really good price , i ve the cardas clear ones normally and they come close very close, do you have another suggestion for a bigger soundstage and imaging ? Thanks it's really nice to follow you ! Take care

I suggest you give Audio Sensability cables a try. They' make them with either OCC copper or OCC silver. RCA or XLR interconnects.

Hi compare to the zavfino prima mk2 you made me discover. Which better? Thx

What should I get to link this cables to my Denon DRA-800H? I can't find the right connector.

loving the info on your channel, big thumbs up!..was wondering if it would be worth trying the Ram Cables you mentioned? my system is naim unity atom/goldenear triton 2. any comments would be much appreciated, cheers.

I would love to try this SKW cable. But I need to get the tip connector adapter (the one's from the link it's sold out). Does anyone knows where I can bought these tips? I'm from Portugal (Europe).

Hey ANA[DIA]LOG, I couldn't find the pair of 3m cables in any of the links you've provided. Amazon/US just provide a single 16.4ft/5m pack.

Sold out...

Wondering if you tried there RCA cables? Do you know who’s quality is better SKW OCC or Oyaide purple cable. I bought purple Oyaide cables And the SKW OCC speaker cable. Thank you Roger

Can you please explain how the speaker cable need to "burn" in for the sound?What does the cable do so you get an other soundfield from your speakers if you let them burn in?Maybe in depth on how the structure of the copper does this when applied to power.And how much power is put out of your amp to your speakers...........

I am happy with my pair but am also curious whether you found something better but still carrying an affordable price tag?

.Hello how would one know what its made of ..could be recycled power cords form old Samsung TVs, in a fancy jacket :]

Do they make bi-wire versions or do you suggest to use the SKW Speaker Cables and just get SKW Jumpers to use with the cables (I see on Amazon that SKU does make jumpers but can't seem to find bi-wire versions of the cable) Also, does SKW have their own website?

Clever 5:48 “If you don’t like spades, if you don’t want spades, you can just screw them off”

"Burn-In" period for cables.... RIGHT!!! XD

best to use BFA Banana plugs ...soldered

Help from anyone. I know this is an old video but I'm just getting into this stuff. I have my record player set up and the wire cables I use I have to twist the ends real tight, press the tab button down and shove them into the back of the speaker. I have vintage equipment. Can I use these cables in those speakers with the pin thingy attachment? I'm researching new cables because I'm picking up a radio signal when I play my vynl records.

I bought this cable and I've been using it for about 6 months, it sounded good at first, but then as it burned I realized that the vocal sounds were in the background and the soundstage was weak.

Hello ANA[DIA]LOG, Thank you very much for all of your videos regarding your very interesting point of view on high quality sound reproduction. I bought this SKW cables on Amz to test them knowing that it will be easy to return them. They are absolutely fantastic. I'm not here to talk about me but I have had a dozen of different systems in my life and music and sound reproduction it is a passion for me. And this SKW cables are iust fantastic. But I have to admit I was a little sceptical at first not on that one can here cables differences, but that this cables will fit in my system. Here is my question. If I understand correctly you're felling that the Ramm Audio Amadeus (DIY in one of your other videos) are better. But there is no way to return them so no way to try them, and budget is double. Could you tell us in what area the Ramm are giving improvement over the SKW ? I have found the SKW extraordinary especialy in overall balance toward warmness and impact of lows. Maybe I have noticed a little lack in upper transparency and a little lack in micro dynamics, but this is just my first impressions since I have received them a couple of days ago.. How will summarize your impressions on the differences btw Ramm and SKW ? Thank you very much, and also for all of your very interesting videos that I recommend for everyone passionate on high quality sound reproduction.

Hi there , what is the insulator over copper? Is it teflon ?

I did order the DIY Ramm Audio speaker cable kit that you even mention in this video last summer, same as you did with spades. Sound quality impact was so much more than I could ever imagine - well my old cables was 1€ per meter :-)) Now I've been looking at the SKW power cord for some weeks, 3m to my XTZ sub and 2m to my Hegel amp, main reason I need longer cords and the wish for something better than standard cables, the black and gold is a realy nice looking cable as well but I don't expect that much improvement. Have you done any test of power conditioners? I just added the unexpencive Powequest 3 to my system, only change I can hear is less distortion on high volume

The manual for my amp recommends multi stranded copper speaker cables. Can you recommend a good quality 14 gauge 10 foot long cables at an affordable price?
