RE: Ordered some Tempo Electric silver to compare with these Chinese knock offs.

True.

Magnepans are usually resistive load, not much for phase angles.

Even audiophile (years ago) recommend 18g solid core copper magnet wire.


I know there are many camps for wire enthusiasts, stranded vs solid, multiple vs single wire, copper vs silver plated copper vs silver, low/high capacitance (say nordost vs kimber/goertz).

I've never made the ubyte wire, but people seem to prefer it.



I'm not new to wire but I have wanted to try tempo silver for a long while now.

I think I fall into the nordost speaker wire camp, think red dawn maybe.
