The Zonotone Meister SP-1700 is the successor to the beloved 6NSP-1500Meister and represents the company's vision of what an entry-level parallel speaker cable can achieve when quality is the absolute priority. At its core is a four-material hybrid conductor blending ultra-high-purity 6NCu (99.9999% pure copper), Furukawa's PCUHD high-purity oxygen-free copper, tin-plated OFC, and standard OFC in a proprietary "golden ratio" — a formula refined with the introduction of PCUHD, a material not found in its predecessor. The cable uses a substantial 1.55 mm² × 2-core layout with a double-insulation structure: a high-dielectric polyethylene inner layer and a transparent blue PVC outer sheath, giving it a flat profile of 4.5 × 9.2 mm. Despite its accessible price point of around ¥2,090 per metre, the SP-1700 delivers a surprisingly dynamic and mature sound — taut, well-defined mid-highs, energetic and weighty bass, and a high signal-to-noise ratio that belies its class. Zonotone describes it as the new standard for parallel speaker cables: a product that overturns the enthusiast's preconceptions about what an entry-level cable can do, proving that true cost-performance is measured not in specifications alone, but in the depth of musical emotion it can convey.
Pairs well with our speaker cables range and the Meister SP-440.
