NEW YORK — Jim Toth, owner and president of Timbre Tech, chose Wireworks Corporation’s SpeakerLUX speaker cabling for the Santos Party House, a two-level, 8,000-square-foot music venue in downtown Manhattan. Toth credited the cabling for its audio quality and reliability for the venue, which is designed to function as a concert hall, dance club and lounge.
“When I designed this system, I knew I needed the highest-quality speaker cabling available. Not only did it have to stand up to the high-end speakers I spec’d, it also had to withstand the sheer wattage that was required for this system,” Toth said.
“Wireworks SpeakerLUX has exceeded my expectations,” Toth added. “A club can have the best audio equipment on the market, but without a high-quality cable like SpeakerLUX, the system will fall short. I am a huge advocate of Wireworks and will continue to use them in future projects I am involved in.”
The main floor’s live music system features 10 JBL VerTec 4888 and two 4887 Line Array speakers, four JBL VerTec 4880 Ultra Subwoofers, six JBL SRX 812 monitor wedges, four VRX 915 M monitor wedges, and Soundcraft Vi4 and Vi6 mixing consoles. The dance floor system includes 110 separate TAD drivers housed in 22 custom-built tri-amped boxes powered by 20 Crown I-Tech amps, totaling 150,000 watts.
SpeakerLUX is a flexible loudspeaker cable with 49-strand, 13-gauge bare copper available in two-, four-, six- and eight-conductor versions, and is designed to provide efficient signal delivery. Made with a PVC black satin finish and a pressure extruded jacket, SpeakerLUX produces a lay-flat cable and eliminates the need for plastic or string fillers. SpeakerLUX is also designed to make the termination process easy without having to worry about losing strands while the jacket is being stripped.
The insulation is also color-coded. If additional copper is necessary for high-powered, low-frequency systems, doubling up on conductors can serve as a solution. SpeakerLUX is also sized to match Neutrik’s speakON connectors.
SpeakerLUX is part of Wireworks WireLUX line of audio cables, which also includes MusiLUX microphone cabling; InstaLUX color-coded installation cable; StudiLUX fast-strip multi-channel interconnect cable; and UltraLUX multi-pair oxygen-free studio cable.
