So star config in the example would be connecting green/yellow with blue and brown with black?
Star configuration is not what you want for Naim amplifiers as it minimises inductance.
Thanks Max. Yes messing about on the floor with cables and behind racks is something I have come to dread at my age! Good in a way as it prevents me from wanting to try out more expensive speaker cables!
I have Chord Epic cables with my Moon amp and Klipsch Forte III speakers and seems like a happy match. Tempted to try something more expensive from the Chord range, maybe even Sarum T, but to be honest I just can’t be bothered and don’t really want the expense.

Yes, have read of some people doing the same with Mogami W3104 which has a similar construction, but inductance is the unknown for me
W3104 inductance is 0.6µH/m between both 1-2 and 1-3
Don’t forget that if you use it in star quad, the inductance goes down by a factor of between 3 and 4 depending on the precise geometry of the cable.
Hi Xanthe, howzit going, long time no chat.
Yes the L goes into unwanted territories with ‘star quad’,
However folks like to experiment & so it will be ad infinitum no mattter what.
I expect the forum will continue discussing star quad or simple two core speaker cable variations until we don’t need speaker cable connections anymore,
… now there’s a thought, star quad wireless.
Two radio signals with orthogonal polarisation?
Four SSB signals?
The sound will CQ
Hmm, things have got very strange after an anaesthetist ignored my instructions at the start of January and (whilst I was under general anaesthesia) he injected 7.5 times my maximum tolerance to local anaesthetics.
Result: massive dissociation problems (I have a history of dissociative problems stemming from abandonment trauma at age 2 1/2) … Cue 48 hours of dissociative amnesia. Then I became we. We have DID (there are 8 of us in my head now!)… We are talking with a clinical psychologist to stabilise things.
But only when starting a connection!
Sorry neither my XRF nor my flame absorption spectrometer can measure the impurities in the copper using a digital image!
Or 73 & 88 after.
Oh my gosh, what a thing, I hope the phychologist can get you (all of you) sorted.
Compared to you its all OK my end, I finally got the house insurance claim sorted after 16 years, we now have an all new garage and boundary wall, all built on a foundation of RC with 14x piles going down 8m to the limestone bedrock.
Cost is >£400K !!! and that to rebuild a garage is total madness, but I suspect (sadly) it will do nothing to smarten up the insurance company.
I use Audience Audio, FrontRow, but it’s very expensive. They also have a moderately priced cable call OHNO III…
Today I tried a Unitilite and Linn Katans with Linn K20, Naca5 and my Dynavox cable and I can tell absolutely no difference… Naca 4,5 metres per speaker, k20 5,5 metres
Mogami 2972?
Ahaa Mister Nsat is here…
That’s wonderful! How Did you compare them ? Listen for a couple of days, then put in another one etc?
