Demo - Supra Sword Excalibur Combicon Pair

Customer return of 1 pair Sword Excalibur Combicon 2x2,5m.

The cables are in new condition, but delivered without a wooden box.

Supra has for 2 years tried to develop the ultimate speaker cable, the result was Sword Excalibur.

The goal has been to not compromise on anything, everything should be the best but still affordable and of course made in Sweden. Bifilar wound litz conductors, PE insulation, twisted and shielded for minimal interference, CNC-milled cable splitter with earth connection, XL-Annorum earth conductors, solid copper contacts with Rhodium plating.

The crimp connectors are specially designed for Excalibur, the conductor is screwed into the crimp body (type F connector) for maximum bending strength. The stripped Litz wires are then crimped by machine for a perfect and airtight cable connection. The connector body is provided with M6 connection, allowing optional connection with Rhondium plated spades or banana pins. Earth connection with XL-annurator conductor is in standard 30cm and also equipped with customized and rhodium-plated Combicon connectors.

Supra has previously stated without modesty that the standard Sword is one of the best cables available, regardless of price or manufacturer. Sword Excalibur takes a few more steps towards almost total transparency, still the only word that accurately describes this patented "high-end" speaker cable.

The secret is the construction with bifilar wound Litz conductors. The cable structure consists of 24 separately insulated strands per conductor (two per cable), with 12 wound in a clockwise spiral and the remaining 12 in a counter-clockwise spiral. Through this ingenious orientation, the two pairs of conductors work in what is called the "magnet-zero", i.e. the counter-clockwise wound strands extinguish each other's own inductance (magnetic effect).

An additional advantage is that the skin effect is minimized, i.e. the current's (signal's) tendency to want to go closer to the surface of the cables at high frequencies and, not least, the separate routing of each conductor completely stops the spontaneous current jumps between the cables in the conductors that give time-shifting effects. For you as a customer, this means a cable that does not dampen the music's rapid transients, a cymbal sounds like a cymbal should, a piano's attack as well and the superior timing contributes to a sound stage in three dimensions that in a properly set up HiFi system is extremely true to the original on the record being played.

Something that is normal in quality recorded music that is not compressed in the same way as pop/hit music made for radio/streaming is that each instrument and voice phrases (emphasizes) different parts of the music. It is barely audible in simple equipment connected with substandard cables. But even with the same equipment, an audible step forward is taken in terms of sound with higher class of cabling. If you have a lavish HiFi equipment, we would say that Sword should be considered with the same relevance to your system's performance as any of its other components. Don't replace your speakers, for example, until you try a demo of the Supra Sword Excalibur from your local dealer. With the feedback from our skilled retailers, the customer usually comes back very surprised. Patented cable design, made in Ljungskile, Sweden!

Sword is only sold terminated, why? Because of the special design, the contacting is critical (in other words, nothing you do yourself!). The termination is made with heavy contact pressing, oxygen-tight so the materials are joined to what is almost reminiscent of welding. The cable is delivered in a black wooden box. Termination is both fork and banana Supra Rhodium plated CombiCon connector. Both banana and fork are included so you are not limited in future upgrades of electronics or speakers.
