Build
What we've done with the Boomslang is take the Mil-spec, aircraft grade wire used in the original Soundbolt, and then doubled it up and terminated it with the
great-sounding Vampire XLR plugs. The signal conductor in this cable is a multi-stranded design, with the wires all being drawn from pure oxygen free copper.
Each individual strand is plated with a thin, pure silver layer, and then twisted and covered with a teflon dielectric for a total center conductor thickness
of 22 a.w.g. for both signal and return.
The third wire, or ground, on the Boomslang is not one--but two--braided shields, each consisting of more than 200 strands of
very fine silver plated, oxygen free copper. It's then woven into a braided shield encasing both the signal and return conductors, making for a total of
more than 400 strands of braided shield!!
Finally, the entire assembly is lightly twisted and covered with a thin layer of Techflex, terminated with Vampire
XLR plugs. The entire build process results in a much thinner than normal coaxial cable, with an outer diameter of just a hair over 5mm (not including the protective covering)!!
The Boomslang is very attractive, flexible, and easy to manage.
