Kudos Audio KS-1 Loudspeaker Cable
KS-1 loudspeaker cable was developed by Kudos initially for internally wiring its high-quality, high-end loudspeakers. KS-1 was another element in ensuring absolute consistency of product quality over time. Kudos KS-1 speaker cable is the result of the KISS principle of design: the right materials, well executed win over fancy marketing related engineering every time. KS-1’s conductors are 19 strands of silver-plated Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) insulated with Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) run with a slow twist and all surrounded by a hard PVC outer for protection, physical damping and simplicity of use. FEP shares PTFE’s ideal low dielectric constant but is a little softer for improved mechanical damping. The choice of 19 strands is not random: there were multiple listening tests carried out to identify sonic differences from the number of strands changing while keeping the overall conductor diameter the same. Nineteen proved to be the ideal. The KS-1 speaker cable is perfect for those looking for a high-end loudspeaker cable at an affordable price.
