Nakamichi Excel Series 24k Gold Plated Banana Plugs with Speaker Cable Wire 99.9% Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Heavy Duty Braided for Amplifier Hi-Fi Home Theatre - Black (12 AWG / 3 feet / 0.9m)

I replaced ordinary cable with nakamachi and now i can audible more clarity and details of music.These are well made cables

Product was as described and well made. Sound quality is good (neutral).

For the price these are stellar, very good quality.

Ottimo prodotto, ben costruito vale il prezzo rispetto ad altri cavi blasonati a mio parere ridicoli che non cambiano minimamente il suono e costano uno sproposito

Cabo muito bem acabado e tem os famosos plugues banana Nakamichi. Fiz um teste cruzado com os cabos Audioquest Type 4 e , por enquanto, não consegui identificar tanta diferença que justifique pagar mais pelo Audioquest. Devo salientar que ainda estou amaciando as caixas Polk Signature Elite ES 20. Pode ser que quando as caixas estiverem amaciadas, haja diferenças significativas.

Bra kvalitet! Blev dock ett felköps som inte passade till min anläggning så jag har inte kunnat prova dem.

The Nakamichi Excel 12 AWG OFC speaker cable delivers near-audiophile-grade performance that rivals premium heavyweights like the Kimber Kable 12TC at a fraction of the cost.When configured as a dual-run, DIY bi-wired setup and paired with high-quality tube amplification, this 99.9% Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) cable punches far above its weight class. It transforms into a high-end conduit capable of driving demanding speakers like Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) to their full acoustic potential.Here is a comprehensive review based on the custom build, construction quality, and acoustic performance of this specific setup.1. Build Quality & Custom AssemblyThe foundation of this review rests on a custom-engineered 10-meter bi-wired run.2. Industrial-Grade Construction: Out of the box, the Nakamichi Excel features a true industrial-grade outer braid. It is rock-solid, durable, and built to withstand physical stress without sacrificing flexibility.3. Bespoke Craftsmanship: By utilizing two separate 10-meter runs, twisting them together, and securing them with zip ties, the cable effectively minimizes external interference.4. Premium Terminations: Terminating the 12 AWG strands with aftermarket pure copper spades—sealed cleanly with heat-shrink tubing inside protective G&S sleeves—ensures an airtight, corrosion-resistant connection. This maximizes signal transfer from the amplifier to the speaker terminals.5. Acoustic Performance When pairing this cable with a tube amplifier running KT88 or KT150 valves to power the resolving four-terminal crossover of B&W speakers, the sonic results are stunning.A. Soundstage & Imaging: The standout characteristic is a deeply holographic soundstage. The presentation is wide, three-dimensional, and accurately separated, allowing instruments to occupy distinct physical spaces in the room.B. Midrange Clarity: The midrange is remarkably clean and transparent. Vocals emerge uncolored by the cable, fully retaining the warm, lush, and organic texture inherent to KT88/KT150 tube topologies.C. Bass Response: Instead of the loose or bloated low-end sometimes associated with budget copper, the bass here is tight, controlled, and highly spontaneous. It tracks fast transient changes with excellent rhythmic drive.D. High Frequencies: The top end is impeccable—crisp, airy, and extended without ever tipping into fatiguing brightness or sibilance.Happy listening. Cheers, Amit
