  • Speaker cable gauge selection table

    The following table shows the resulting damping factor, signal loss, attenuation and impedance for different loudspeaker cable lengths and gauges. The signal loss represents the power wasted on the cablem, while the attenuation is the reduction in sound pressure level.



    Results assume an amplifier damping factor of 400 at 8 ohm and have been rounded for ease of use.

    Constant voltage systems (70V, 100V lines)

    Constant voltage, high impedance or line transformer systems are often a somewhat confusing concept for professionals used to rock and roll. They are actually very simple to design, among other things because they are intended to be installed by electricians and the like, with little experience in sound systems. In this article we will try to clarify the simple concepts needed to understand this type of system.... Read more
