LUNA CABLES ORANGE series Neo Vintage copper conductor speaker cable

Product concept

Luna Cables ORANGE Speaker is a speaker cable that has been redesigned from the 14AWG configuration with one per polarity used in the GRIS series, and uses a configuration in which two 18AWG (7 x 26AWG) LCNV copper conductors are bundled together per polarity. The total cross-sectional area of ​​the two wires is equivalent to 15AWG, providing sufficient margin for current supply from the amplifier to the speakers.

The 18AWG conductor is made by stranding seven 26AWG thin tin-plated copper wires and has high flexibility and ease of handling, while also providing the mechanical stability unique to a stranded wire structure. waxed cottondielectricThe design concept of natural materials using cotton for the exterior is common to the entire ORANGE series, and the speaker cable is also structured to minimize unnecessary interference with the signal. You can choose between spade and banana connectors (single wire version only).

Luna Cables: Cables created by artisans from Montreal

Luna Cables is a handmade audio cable brand based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. All products are produced in small quantities in our workshop, and each piece is hand-finished by our craftsmen. Luna Cables' musicality is supported by a level of care and attention to materials that cannot be found in mass-produced products.

■ LCNV conductor (Luna Cable Neo Vintage): A unique conductor produced by vintage processing machines

LCNV is an in-house copper conductor produced using Luna Cable's unique formulation and manufacturing method. By intentionally using a vintage wire processing machine instead of a cutting-edge CNC processing machine, we are able to create a conductor with a unique crystal structure and flexibility that cannot be reproduced with modern precision machinery. This approach of bringing the goodness of old things to life in modern hi-fi is the core of the Luna sound.

■ Waxed cottondielectric: Vibration control and musicality provided by natural materials

LCNV also has waxed cottondielectricIt is covered as.dielectricis a term that refers to the electrical properties of the coating material that covers a conductor; the lower the dielectric constant of the material, the less unnecessary interference with the signal waveform. Wax-impregnated cotton has a lower dielectric constant than plastic-based materials, minimizing signal interference while providing high vibration damping. It absorbs minute noises caused by external vibrations, creating a smooth and rich musical expression that does not feel oppressive while increasing the focus of the sound.

■ Uncompromising craftsmanship, with all contacts finished by hand soldering

All connections on all Luna Cables cables are hand soldered. The precise contact quality that cannot be obtained through mass production using machines is directly linked to signal transparency and long-term reliability. This painstaking process is one of the reasons why Luna Cables is on par with top audio brands.

■ Cotton jacket: Made of natural materials from inside to outside

The exterior is made of a cotton jacket that is flexible and easy to handle. It has appropriate flexibility and sound absorption properties not found in synthetic resin tubes, and suppresses unnecessary tension and vibration propagation during installation. Luna's philosophy of using natural materials from inside to outside is evident here.

Main features

• Tin plated LCNV 18AWG (7 x 26AWG) conductor x 2 / polarity, total equivalent to 15AWG:Two 18AWG LCNV conductors per polarity are used, each consisting of seven strands of 26AWG tinned copper wire twisted together. The total cross-sectional area is equivalent to 15AWG, providing sufficient margin for current transmission from the amplifier to the speaker. The stranded wire structure is highly flexible and can be easily handled even in long lengths.
• ワックスドコットンdielectricによる低干渉設計：低誘電率のワックスドコットンが各導体を個別に被覆し、導体間および外来からの電気的干渉を最小化。スピーカーケーブルとして重要な過渡応答特性の保持に寄与します。
• ゴールドメッキ バナナ（ベリリウム銅・低質量）/ スペード（銅）：バナナはベリリウム銅にゴールドメッキを施した低質量タイプ、スペードは銅にゴールドメッキを施したタイプを採用。ご注文時にいずれか、または混在（片端バナナ・片端スペード）でもお選びいただけます。すべての接点を職人が手ハンダで仕上げています。シングルワイヤ仕様のみ。
