Bill125812 3,564 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) I was asked by a few members to make a hybrid copper / Silver. The feedback has been very good indeed. This is a pure solid silver and pure copper wires spun together. Then a stranded 99.99 % copper return wire Acoustically it still gives the warmth of copper, but with added detail. This is again hand spun. Not a bought in commercial wire Rebadged. As usual will my boutique cables, it has a hand wound copper foil shielding Price including postage is $130 for a 1m set of 2 cables Edited October 5, 2020 by Bill125812 9 Link to post Share on other sites

Ozflyer 46 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Hi Bill - just send you a pm re the hybrid cable, but XLR. Link to post Share on other sites
sirmoe 14 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Very interesting! I'll give one a go after the silver one arrives and burns in for a comparison. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Lushds 17 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Wondering if anyone has received this new hybrid cable cos I've not seen any reviews or feedback posted on these. Very curious how they compare to the solid Silver interconnects ( which i have ) in different setups. Ive never owned any hybrid copper/silver cables and thinking if this could really be the best of both worlds (silver = details, resolution/transparency, speed, imaging ..... copper=fuller/warmer, organic, musical, tonally saturated) thx.

Ditto to all the above. Definitely best of both worlds. Warmth and beaut midrange of copper plus the detail and clarity of silver. I've been bit of an addict of Bill's cables. I think each one has been a development to provide great value. I have been using Bill's new hybrid RCA for couple weeks now and IMHO it's one of the better cables I've heard in my setup regardless of price and still a few hours burn in to go. Some cables provide great warmth, some great detail - some do pretty well at both. Bill's is right up there. I'm bit of a tinkerer and have tried in excess of 20 RCA cables and swap between various power and preamps I have. These include silver, copper variations, Cu/Ag mixes. Bill's hybrid RCA I rate as one of the more complete sounding cables and represents excellent value for SQ provided. Buy with confidence. I'm hanging out to try his new Pinnacle SC to see how it compares with his boutique SC. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Bill125812 3,564 Posted December 24, 2020 Author Share Posted December 24, 2020 Another review that @BlackMX PM’d to me and has kindly allowed me to post here Hi Bill Thank you for the excellent service and communication. It was a pleasant surprise to have the cables arrive so quickly knowing how busy are. Let me just say I am extremely pleased with the cables. Not only are they clearly well made with care, they sound fantastic., Detailed with a touch of warmth, improved lower mid bass definition and better soundstage depth. The best bit for me though was the absence of a bothersome occasional biting leading edge on vocals with the previous cables. Happy Days! Excellent performers and fantastic value. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Having had bills first speaker cables then his boutique and now the pinnacle speaker cables all I can say every time I have upgraded I have not been disappointed his pinnacle cables are just that pinnacle 👍 I didn’t imagine that I would hear such a difference in SS warmth and clarity from boutique to pinnacle but it’s a very noticeable difference. My brother in the uk has just took delivery of his boutique and is amazed at the difference and will be ordering the pinnacles. Order and be amazed Sean 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
