RE: Possible good choice for headphone cable??

Posted by Tweaker456 on August 21, 2017 at 19:00:43:
It's litz wire, Servolitze. That brings it up to about four words of German in my vocabulary. I would think it unlikely to be teflon coated but not sure. My project, if I ever get to it, will be for an unbalanced cable. I speculate it has a good chance of being a better choice than microphone cable and possibly better than the Cardas because my preferential bias is for a larger gauge, that is, wider diameter wire. Mic cable is generally not, if ever litz wire. To sum it up I'd rather use litz than ordinary stranded and a wider gauge than 24awg. I may risk using solid core?? The cable that Ultrasone tells me they use is 26awg litz.
