The SPC-850 is SAEC’s high-end speaker cable, built around the celebrated PC-Triple C conductor — high-purity Furukawa Electric oxygen-free copper purified to remove micron-level impurities, then continuously forged and drawn so the copper’s crystal grain boundaries align along the length of the wire rather than interrupting it. The result is exceptionally low distortion and stable, high conductivity. Each 3.4sq (≈12 AWG) core is insulated with a vibration-damping polyethylene, the pair twisted and finished in a damping-loaded outer sheath — a construction that keeps micro-vibration out of the signal path. With its wide dynamic range and excellent S/N, the SPC-850 carries high-resolution sources with ease and grips demanding speakers with authority.
Key specs (from SAEC)
