Just curious, what's the gauge of the 6N pure copper cable you have and also where can i get it? Am kinda trying to look for some pure copper cables(solid core preferably) in 21AWG or 20AWG, or even 15AWG or 14AWG(this i think can only find stranded ones la.. where got so thick solid core laugh.gif)

Want to try out some ICs that implement the Eichmann Ratio smile.gif

i am using 24 AWG.
i can't find an 24 AWG solid core dude, it will very hard. like telephone line. hehehe.

i prefer to work with this so i can braid them.
else larger a bit, the quantity of the cable will be limited by the barrer size of the plug.
about the Eichmann Ratio, i use more than 1.4 times instead. i use 2X haha
ground wire is 2X more than signal. (so can conclude the size also? i add on the quantity of the cable)
how ever, there's some people over headfi making cable with weired ratio, one of the top cable maker uses 2:1 ratio for signal to ground.
i feel very weired...
this especially won't work for stereo-stereo cable.
perhaps i will make a few more cables to test it out on a proper systems, instead of my hp890. else i think the sounds good is influence by the cable maker personal taste though.

Hm... actually 24awg solid core is easy to get, just rip out your Cat5e cables and you'll have 8 strands of 24awg solid core laugh.gif

Now the trouble is to find solid core(or even stranded) 21 or 20awg sad.gif
