The Wireworld Luna 8 Subwoofer Cable comes in a number of popular cable lengths. It builds on previous series with a number of refinements and is priced in what we could call the mid area - half-way between entry-point and high-end.
- Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Conductors
- High-Density Composilex 3 Insulation
- Tri DNA Helix Cable Design
- High Quality Patented Gold-Tube Connectors
Patented DNA Helix Design Delivers Dynamic Sound Quality
Wireworld Luna 8, with its Oxygen-Free Copper conductors in a Tri DNA Helix cable design, provides superior imaging compared to the cheaper Wireworld Terra 7 (discontinued) and expressive dynamics, while the Composilex 3 insulation improves focus and clarity. These are excellent examples of how Wireworld have used new technology to clearly advance the art of music reproduction.
Recorded music has a long journey before we get to enjoy it at home. Without going to deep, the recording studio, type of microphones, mixing console all add their signature to the finished piece. And before we hear it, that signal is again reprocessed through our home system. When you think about this, you can understand why we believe the better the links in the audio chain, the more musical detail and expression we'll hear.
Wireworld subwoofer cables are designed, tested and manufactured to provide some of the most sonically transparent paths for your recorded music. Wireworld's patented DNA Helix internal structure consists of parallel strands in layered flat conductors that channel electromagnetic signal energy more efficiently than coaxial and twisted pair cables. The increased number of strand groups (compared with previous models) delivers increased detail, soundstage separation, bass extension and dynamic expression.
Quiet Please!
Many cable manufacturer's across many fields understand that insulation materials influence the performance of a cable. Wireworld created unique polymer composites designed specifically to optimise fidelity and one of these is Composilex 3, a third generation composite insulation technology with lower triboelectric noise than any conventional low loss insulation, including DuPont Teflon!
This is quite an impressive breakthrough. It makes these vast improvements in sound quality by virtually eliminating the noise modulation effects caused by conventional insulation materials. Composilex 3 provides quieter backgrounds, tighter image focus and wider dynamics than the insulation materials used in many other cables.
Gold-Tube Connectors
The idea behind developing connectors that surpass most others in design and material was based on a simple question. Why bother perfecting cables if the plugs take away from their performance? After all, the cable can’t let you hear all of the music if it’s losing information at the connection. Bright gold-plated connectors may be beautiful, but they’re not a reliable indicator of quality in cables. Most gold-plated plugs are made of brass, which is plated with bright nickel and a thin layer of gold.
Brass and nickel are rather poor conductors that introduce significant loss at the points of contact. Furthermore, the thick metal sections of conventional plugs reduce sonic clarity. Wireworld RCA plugs utilise thin-walled tubular contacts made of the best conductors, oxygen-free copper and silver, to provide distinct improvements in clarity, smoothness and dynamic range and are engineered to provide some of the purest and most lifelike sound quality available.
The Luna 8 Subwoofer cable comes supplied with patented Wireworld Gold-Tube RCA plugs. These provides extremely high conductivity and create a smooth firm grip over any RCA socket. Gold-Tube connectors are truly a world class design and built with high-end materials for sound quality far beyond their modest price range. They feature a Dupont Teflon Insulator; Silver + Gold over an oxygen free copper (OFC) Pin and Copper Alloy Flange all housed in a sturdy aluminium shell. With superior sonic transparency and a perfect fit every time, Wireworld connectors are arguably among the world’s best connectors.
For the seriously music-obsessed, a key gateway to an expanded soundstage, where one comes within grasping distance of the creator’s vision, lies in the purest and most sonically invisible of conductors being the medium between their audio setup. In the audio world, few have come close to reaching this flagstone as David Salz, Founder and CEO of Wireworld. For close to four decades, David has led a renaissance in the cabling world, completely reinventing conductor geometries in his quest for high-performance cables that boast even octave to octave tonal balance, while staying bereft of the signature house sounds that colour many a brand creation.
We also support Wireworld as a premier provider of leading edge digital and analogue cable technology for home audio and video, from HDMI and USB audio to state of the art high-end interconnects and speaker cables. They have earned their world-class reputation by producing high quality cables based on the use of objective perceptual testing, innovative patented designs, premium materials, and exceptional manufacturing quality.
Our Take On The Luna 8 Subwoofer Cable
With upgraded designs and superior materials, Wireworld Series 8 subwoofer cables embody real progress in preserving tone quality, imaging and dynamic expression. The combination of two advanced technologies in Luna 8 produce cables that sound distinctly cleaner than similarly-priced equivalents. They also allow quieter details to be heard, while preserving a greater range of dynamic contrasts and musical expression than other cables.
Amazingly, they even reduce listening fatigue while improving definition and image focus. In addition to the advantages of Composilex 3 and Tri DNA Helix technologies, Wireworld subwoofer cables also feature superior patented connectors and utilise conductor materials of the highest purity available. These qualities are essential in producing the highest fidelity subwoofer cables at this price point.
