• Specially configured for long runs from 16-75 feet, Golden Parallel wires use identical silver-plated high-purity copper, solid core, ultra-thin dielectric conductors as the Golden Helix; the only difference is the + and – conductors are run parallel and spaced apart, not tightly twisted.
• Golden Parallel speaker wires are available with PLUS Upgrade using specially-treated copper conductors with proprietary stress-relieved metallurgy. For fans of well-recorded acoustic music, small group jazz, or chamber music, we recommend add PLUS Upgrade without hesitation. Listening to loud, compressed recordings, the improvements will be audible but much more subtle.
• The default option for these cables is for a 20' foot stereo set for two standard speakers. To choose a different pair length or PLUS version, use the 'Stereo Sets' dropdown menu to choose a different option.
• Use the 'Single Channel' dropdrop menu to order different cable lengths for left, right, and/or center channels. When ordering single channels a la carte, make sure the 'Stereo Pairs' menu is set to NONE.

WARNING: DO NOT USE ANY BREAK-IN DEVICES OF ANY KIND ON OUR WIRES.
They will seriously degrade the sound. Use only music to break in our cables. The recommended break-in period for standard Clearview Cables is 30-50 hours; 150-300 hours for cables with PLUS Upgrade. Feel free to install and listen to our cables immediately, they'll sound really good after about an hour. But you won't hear their full potential until they have been broken-in thoroughly.
TERMINATIONS
Whenever possible, connect our speaker wires using their prepared, bare wire ends without extra terminations. This will be your least-expensive, best-sounding option. Unlike stranded-wire speaker cables, our solid-core conductor does not fray--and, once bent into a J-hook, is just as convenient as a spade. Even though our offered terminations are the least intrusive-sounding spades and bananas available, they still do not sound quite as good as making a simple, bare wire connection to your speaker/amp binding post, screw terminal, et al.
We do offer pure, unplated copper spade lugs (unplated always sounds better than silver, gold or rhodium plating) for $5.00 per termination or our own proprietary minimalist banana plugs (guaranteed to sound better than $80 silver Eichmanns) for $7.50 per termination. The latter will fit Naim jacks. These are non-refundable service charges. To order custom-terminated speaker cables, please call (410)685-4618.
