What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Cardas Audio Clear Bi-Wire Jumpers for significantly enhancing sonic clarity and soundstage dimensionality. Reviewers consistently note a more cohesive integration between high and low frequencies, eliminating stock discontinuity. The signature Cardas tonality is described as natural and organic, providing tighter bass articulation and airier, extended treble without harshness. Many audiophiles consider these jumpers an essential upgrade for unlocking high-end speaker potential. While the substantial price point is a consideration, those who invest generally feel the sonic return justifies the cost, solidifying their reputation for achieving reference level sound quality.
Know before you buy
The metal plates included with most speakers are often made of lower-quality materials that can introduce signal degradation. These jumpers use the same high-performance Clear conductor technology as your main speaker cables, ensuring a consistent electrical path and better signal integrity.
These jumpers are specifically designed for speakers with bi-wire terminals. While they work with most standard binding posts, you should ensure your speaker's terminal spacing is compatible with the length and geometry of the Clear jumper leads.
The leads are permanently bundled to maintain precise geometry and minimize electromagnetic interference. This inseparable design ensures that the conductors remain in the exact configuration required to replicate the performance characteristics of a full-length Clear speaker cable.
No, these are sold as a matched pair. One set is sufficient to complete the bi-wire connection for two speakers.
While they are designed to match the Clear series, they will still provide a significant upgrade over standard stamped-metal jumpers regardless of your main speaker cable brand. They offer a high-conductivity, low-resistance path that helps maintain the signal quality reaching your drivers.
