In Reply to: Cable for DC power? posted by mitch2 on February 11, 2023 at 00:38:42:
There's a lot of information on DC cables in the archives. The ones I find particularly helpful are those from Duster and Paco, who didn't always agree with each other, but both offered interesting perspectives.
I recently emailed Paco regarding his recommendation of Duelund DCA CC0.8 as the best he found for DC applications (link to 2020 post below), but have yet to hear back from him.
More specifically, he suggests "two runs twisted", and I'd like to understand whether he means four strands twisted in quad fashion, or four strands, two twisted for positive, and two separate strands for negative.
In the same thread, after trying the Duelund, Jon L wrote:
"Duelund copper in cotton/oil makes for an involving-sounding DC cable. Its calling card is richer, denser midrange, quite a bit more so than [VH Audio] Airlok 18 AWG, which in comparison adds supertweeter-like topmost air at the price of a slightly more "shiny" or artificial upper-mids. Bass on both is stupendously good both in quantity and definition."
Hopefully Paco will chime in here to offer you some suggestions, but meanwhile reading posts about DC cables in the archives should keep you plenty busy.
