Blue Jeans Cable goes High-End

[Kimo]

I have been shopping for cables to finish off my system and right now am using  Belden, Grimm, and Gotham.  I have looked at more expensive audiophile offerings, however.  There seems to be a lot of similarity in the the approach.  I guess you can only do so much with wire.

 

1. Stranded cable is rare among expensive audiophile offerings

2. Most companies seem to use multiple thinner solid core conductors emphasizing the purity of the copper

3. Various sometimes "exotic" materials are used to cover/space the conductors including natural materials, tubing, air, etc.  Weaving is also big.

4. Silver and sometimes gold enter the equation as you move up the line

5. Really expensive cables tend to be rather thickly constructed

 

The Iconoclast seem to be following suit with their design.  I believe Blue Jean just puts it all together for them, like they do with other Belden cable.  I suppose that may involve weaving the wire as well, but I don't know.
