Neotech NES-5001

PRICED PER METER (or part meter, off the reel). 

The Neotech NES-5001 loudspeaker cable from Neotech's 5000 series is manufactured from their proprietary ultra-pure oxygen-free copper UP-OFC. In addition to this proprietary technology for the manufacture of copper itself, the company also carried out the design/development, the engineers calculated the ideal winding twist of the conductors and geometry of the wire weave in the cable for the most even and musical sound. (Each conductor consists of a thick central wire with 6 bundles of thin wires around the central wire). As a vibration deadening filler, a cotton material is used, and polyvinyl chloride as insulation material.

The success of this line is really confirmed by the fact that it has been produced unchanged for many years; in the Russian Stereo review test in 2011, the Neotech NES 5001 cable was named "absolute best buy". 

Our impression of this cable is very favourable for the relatively modest cost.  The bass notes go low and are musical, the highs not too sharp or too bright, a very slight warmth (as one gets with almost all pure copper cable) in the mid range offers musicallity, there is lots of micro-detail to offer precise placement across a wide stereo stage, there is height and depth to the music.

This is a cable that when compared with most 'commercial' mid range, mid priced (say £250-400.00p for 2.5Mtr. pair) loudspeaker cables, will equal or better, so offers great value for money.

We suggest this cable may be used in up to 15 mtre. lengths with amplifiers up to 500W output per channel.

Cable characteristics Neotech NES-5001: 

Conductor material: ultra-pure oxygen-free copper UP-OFC 
Cross section: 2 x 4.0 mm2 
Insulation material: polyvinyl chloride 
Resistance: 0.0048 Ω / m 
Capacity: 99.73 pF / m 
Inductance: 0.6076 μH / m 
Color of cable: Black
Outer diameter of cable: 15 mm

PRICED PER METER, off the reel, inc. VAT. 

A cable termination service to add either banana plugs or spades is available at a sensible price (please ask us). 

We also think that using this cable without terminations offers as good, if not better sound quality, but the large connductor diameter makes it fiddly to feed into loudspeaker and amplifier connector holes in the sockets.
