Van den Hul The Clearwater – 8 Metres for Front Left, Right & Centre Speakers
A great way to get into a high quality silver plated speaker cable for a very reasonable price. Van den Hul The Clearwater has detail and clarity to spare combined with a natural appealing warmth.
With the design of The Clearwater, it was AJ Van den Hul's intention to produce the best match between quality and price. The decision was taken to work with 2 groups of strands with a conductor size of AWG 14; this was because in many situations the distance between the amplifier and the loudspeakers is limited. Therefore a twin-lead construction was made with 2 x 98 strands of a dense very pure silver coated Matched Crystal Oxygen Free Copper.
Sonically this cable is a great product with a very balanced overall quality. There is no harshness and the spatial reproduction is superior. Just as its name suggests: "The sound is as clear as water". But don't just take our word for it, What Hi-Fi? Magazine had this to say: "Natural-sounding vocals and plenty of layering and texture to instruments really give tracks the ability to communicate effortlessly with the listener. A cable with an impressive level of detail and dynamic clout. Recommended."

QED Performance - 3 Metre Subwoofer Cable
It is rare for any surround sound system to come supplied with speaker cables and even rarer for it to come with a Subwoofer cable. Yes, they come with a power cable, but you need to connect the subwoofer to the receiver with another RCA type cable which has been specially manufactured to just handle the low frequencies.
For subwoofer cable duties we have chosen QED's Performance Subwoofer cable. This offers a very high level of screening when compared to normal line-level interconnects which is vital in ensuring that AC mains hum is absent from this delicate signal.
This subwoofer cable is part of QED's multi-award winning Performance range, renowned for extraordinary performance and exceptional value. It features dual electro-static shielding for enhanced signal integrity and quasi-balanced twisted pair geometry to provide a pure, noise free experience. And the use of best-in-class 99.999% oxygen free copper conductors ensures your Performance subwoofer cable will stand the test of time to provide you with the QED experience for life. Feel every throbbing bass beat with the QED Performance Subwoofer cable.
What You Get In The Pack
This is a 5.1 Surround Cable Pack which includes speaker cable to connect from your home theatre receiver or amplifier to five speakers. There is 8 metres of Van den Hul The Clearwater speaker cable for your three front speakers. This is usually split into two 3 metre cables for your Left & Right speakers and a 2 metre cable for your Centre speaker. There is also 20 metres of QED Profile 79 Strand speaker cable for your rear surround speakers. The speaker cables have no plugs attached. The cables can quite easily be stripped back to reveal the bare speaker wire and can then be used without plugs. If you would like to use plugs that can easily be fitted at home, we recommend the Taga Harmony Banana Plugs. If you want to fit plugs to each end of all the speaker cables you will need a total of 20 plugs, 10 red & 10 black.
A 3 metre QED Performance subwoofer cable is supplied, with the usual RCA plugs fitted to each end, to connect from a home theatre receiver or amplifier to a subwoofer.
This is just one example of a surround sound cable pack. If you need to connect more speakers or more subwoofers please get in contact with us and we can assemble a custom pack just for you.
