    F1 Fractal Speaker Cables

    We are very proud of the response we have had, following the release of the new F1 Fractal speaker cable.This speaker cable is entirely constructed by hand to achieve the most transparent and neutral connection between amplifier and speakers.
    The no compromise option for sound quality.

    The F1 Fractal speaker cable combines Townshends remarkable Fractal proprietary treatment, with its impedance matched cable geometry to bring you the most transparent, accurate and captivating speaker cable they can envisage .

    Continuing forty years of development, the F1 Fractal speaker cable is Townshends first new speaker cable in fourteen years!

    "Im not a great believer in cables. They are not the sort of thing I enjoy reviewing.
    Differences are fairly small, and you have to listen long and hard for differences that may not be obvious in a blind test.
    Using the Townshend F1 Fractal speaker cable was a different ball-game. I have various sets of expensive cable in the house, which shall remain nameless, and having swapped in and out the various cables, it rapidly became apparent that what the F1 Fractal were doing was blindingly obvious, and highly significant.
    Listening to a Hi-Res recording of the 2nd Brahms Serenade, the F1 was removing a level of smudge and dirt from the music, the bass was tighter and cleaner, much easier to understand musically, but perhaps the largest difference was the 3-d chiselled soundscape they were creating.
    I could suddenly hear the layering of the orchestra, where the instruments were located precisely in space, and with such clarity.
    Changing back to the previous cables, the sound stage became completely two-dimensional, collapsed and it was as if my review system was no longer of a high-end persuasion.
    Changing to the F1 was removing the greatest block in the system, and was making the greatest difference."

    Cable Construction

    Two Fractal treated pure copper strip conductors are spaced with ultra thin PTFE insulation with no adhesive and surrounded in flexible polyurethane polymer for truly comprehensive vibration damping. This entire construct is then encapsulated by a super-strong flexible conduit for ultimate protection, within hard wearing woven polyester braid.

    Each end of the cable, incorporates house-keeping electronics to ensure stable operation with ALL amplifiers and features radio frequency interference reduction circuitry. All contained within a machined solid aluminium capsule, that also works as a transition between the twin-strips and the wire tails.

    The cable may be terminated with lockable banana plugs, spades or the connector of your choice.

    The F1 Fractal speaker cable is non directional and un-equal lengths may be used. It requires no burning-in and is available in lengths of up to 10 metres.
