Gary, I just read Roger Sanders white paper on cables. From what I read there is a transformer in the speakers that converts the signal from the amp to high voltage for the panels. In the white paper he explains that ideally speaker cables for his panels should be low capacitance and low inductance. Medium resistance is also desireable to swamp the lc effects. He states that a coaxial cable is best to provide both low capacitance and inductance. I am using his coaxial speaker cables so I probably have the most ideal cables for the job. I have not tried other speaker cables with these speakers so I am just curious if there is something I'm missing. I don't hear any issues so I should probably leave well enough alone.
Cheers,
Sean

Along time ago, i used a cable called OCOS, i think it was made or distributed by Sumiko, that is, I believe similar to what you describe, for my Crosby Quad. As I recall, they were optimized in the manner you described. I still have them somewhere, they used plug in interfaces on the amp and speaker ends that had something in the little tube and the terminations; i'm pretty sure there were different interfaces that were available for different purposes. Although I haven't used them in years, I still have them stored in the basement, along with a couple decades worth of other cables, in big plastic storage bins.
