With Forceline 3 one get the best sound from FMA amps.

Looks like Belden cable....

Forceline vs Belden specs

Resistance pr km - 0,66 ohm, 8 ohm
Max voltage - 500V, 300V
Max current - 320A, ?

km? are you serious?? LOL

 

[Bruce B]

Yes km

Belden specs

I see <8 ohms/km or < .008 ohm/m seems damn good to me. Or you can just get a larger gauge cable.

Yes - standard wire conductance is measured in ohms per km.

The Forceline 3 are 3AWG and they are nearly 6mm in diameter. I had a pair of these when I had the 611X - and they weigh a ton!

Well I guess he needs to compare a Belden 3AWG cable then. The one he compared it to is 2.5mm as opposed to 25.6mm for the FM??

I bought a spool of good 3 AWG cable from a wire manufacturer, but it was far, far from the Forcelines 3. There's a lot more to it than just the gauge.
