Van den Hul The D-352 Hybrid – 8 Metres for Front Left, Right & Centre Speakers

The Van den Hul D-352 Speaker Cable is everything we've come to expect from this cable maker - fatigue free, a big bold spacious presentation with the finesse that good audio equipment deserves. A cable that manages to combine the qualities of copper, silver and carbon into a truly great sounding, yet affordable package.

The D-352 is the next step up from the popular CS-122 and sounds even better. More substantial in every way, the D-352 digs a little deeper, has a slightly more gutsy bass, a larger scale & soundstage presentation and is a touch richer in balance. The best thing about the entire Van Den Hul range is the total lack of fatigue when listening for long periods. Many cable brands tend to shout at you to get the message across but Van Den Hul cables are faithfully transparent to the sound of the music and always leave you feeling relaxed after a listening session.

Van den Hul The Clearwater – 20 Metres For Rear Surround Speakers

A great way to get into a high quality silver plated speaker cable for a very reasonable price. Van den Hul The Clearwater has detail and clarity to spare combined with a natural appealing warmth.

With the design of The Clearwater, it was AJ Van den Hul's intention to produce the best match between quality and price. The decision was taken to work with 2 groups of strands with a conductor size of AWG 14; this was because in many situations the distance between the amplifier and the loudspeakers is limited. Therefore a twin-lead construction was made with 2 x 98 strands of a dense very pure silver coated Matched Crystal Oxygen Free Copper.

Sonically this cable is a great product with a very balanced overall quality. There is no harshness and the spatial reproduction is superior. Just as its name suggests: "The sound is as clear as water". But don't just take our word for it, What Hi-Fi? Magazine had this to say: "Natural-sounding vocals and plenty of layering and texture to instruments really give tracks the ability to communicate effortlessly with the listener. A cable with an impressive level of detail and dynamic clout. Recommended."

AudioQuest Irish Red - 3 Metre Subwoofer Cable

It is rare for any surround sound system to come supplied with speaker cables and even rarer for it to come with a Subwoofer cable. Yes, they come with a power cable, but you need to connect the subwoofer to the receiver with another RCA type cable which has been specially manufactured to just handle the low frequencies.

Irish Red is a very good and smart looking cable and keeps the AudioQuest tradition for making quality products. It is not a radical change to what you hear from Black Lab, but with the extra silver content the sound will be slightly smoother and significantly better than what gets from the "freebie" cables that come with most subwoofers. Some may think Irish Red is a little on the high side for pricing, but this has as much to do with the rest of your system as much as it has to do with the cable itself.

What You Get In The Pack

This is a 5.1 Surround Cable Pack which includes speaker cable to connect from your home theatre receiver or amplifier to five speakers. There is 8 metres of Van den Hul The D-352 Hybrid speaker cable for your three front speakers. This is usually split into two 3 metre cables for your Left & Right speakers and a 2 metre cable for your Centre speaker.

D-352 is 10 AWG gauge wire and is too large to use without plugs on most amplifiers and speakers. In this pack we have included 12 x Taga Harmony Banana Plugs (6 red & 6 black) for the three front speaker cable runs. The cables can quite easily be stripped back to reveal the bare speaker wire and then the plugs can be fitted.

There is also 20 metres of Van den Hul The Clearwater speaker cable for your rear surround speakers. The rear speaker cables have no plugs attached. The cables can quite easily be stripped back to reveal the bare speaker wire and can then be used without plugs. If you would like to use plugs that can easily be fitted at home, we recommend the Taga Harmony Banana Plugs. If you want to fit plugs to each end of the rear speaker cables you will need a total of 8 plugs (4 red & 4 black).

A 3 metre AudioQuest Irish Red subwoofer cable is supplied, with solid conductors that eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter.

This is just one example of a surround sound cable pack. If you need to connect more speakers or more subwoofers please get in contact with us and we can assemble a custom pack just for you.
