To all Americans who are concerned. I am not a communist. I just prefer to use the metric measurements for anything under ~2".. Its way easier. I still measure my D*ck in freedom units because CM ain't cool.
For every copper strand you lose, you lose the ability to hear one of Janet Jackson's mouth hairs.
Dude has a stripper pole in the middle of his bedroom. That's gangsta. Everyone says they're "structural", but we all know that's baloney.
it's for baloney all right, structural even
Today I learned how to braid hair.
I feel like it’s definitely easier to start by putting the speakon connector end together before braiding
THAT.. would make a whole lot of sense.
As a touring stadium PA guy, I appreciate this so much. Let me know if you want to see some large scale shit.. You'll blow 10 loads.
All the loads
Was daydreaming about pulling feeder the other day. ugh..it's going to be a long year..
I wish there were more cables available to take advantage of 4.4mm Pentaconn, especially for use with dual XLR for studio monitors.
Bravo. A very talented guy. I literally enjoy longform Zeos.
why is your suffering so entertaining? 😂
Because he makes our wallets suffer...
My wallet took a hit after the PB16 rev.
Daaang. I’m seriously considering building these. It would go great between my crown amp and my 530s.
Those Heresy's actually look really good on the floor.
Pretty sure that is their main selling point.
"If you can't watch this whole video, then you can't build these wires"
Right on! I love content like this, all the hiccups and trials along the way, and then the success at the end.
Also, flat head screws are by far and away the easiest to machine, which is likely why they were so prevalent in days past and still prevalent even now. Extremely low cost of machining compared to other more complicated, but superior, head types.
I watched it at 1.5 speed and it really amplified the anxiety
just for proof i know how to make wires now
the timestamp is 1:30:00
As a mechanic, all my coworkers look at me like I'm stupid. I don't use heat guns, lighters or crack torches for shrink wrap. I use a MAP Gass plumbing torch.😆😆😆 But the result is, as long as the flame doesn't touch the shrink wrap it doesn't burn. And when you get used to it. It will have the shrink wrap shrunk in a few seconds. And it gets hot enough to make the glue flow. That's a pro-tip.
Me, a live sound tech who clicked to watch zeos futs about and oogle at speakons. I was not disappointed. Btw if you want 4 channels of audio on one cable, use an NL8 and then you can put a fanout or Y on the end to do with what you will.
lmao the pole in his room XD
Never saw his bedroom and 1st thing I see too🤣🤣
That's one of the benefits the patreons get, seeing z spin around naked on a stripper pole.
@@yotday sold!
Can we haz a mad usb cable hour plz?
Can you please review the new klipsch the fives powered monitor speakers please
I have no idea what you would pay for these in a hi-end hifi store, $100 - $200 - $300? I do know that Z's $30 cables are saving you a ton of $$ and you're getting some kickass cables to boot. Also, props to Z for basically talking to himself for 2 hours and making it entertaining. I wish I was that creative. Cheers Z
Discrimination in length? I think you mean discrepancy!
Got the same FEEL
It is German, and you pronounce the the K in Knipex ....look it up ladies
Z can you make an updated "sound bar alternative", I need a solid video to send to my friends before they make some big mistakes. The last one you made is like 5 years old and honestly you're way more interesting and entertaining now.
I refresh is an option.
At 1:37:25 - The counter-rotating Twist method is better for sound because of the placebo effect in the brain of approving the aesthetic decisions of the designer. Put another way, if you really like the way it looks, you'll think it sounds better. :)
Now, where's my money? I'm having a Jerry Maguire moment here...
Chill time with Zeos, what a treat
All that trouble but inside the speaker is light 22ga wire connecting the crossover and speaker . Defeats the purpose. Am I wrong in my logic ?
Absolutely Crazy ... And Excellent ... Hahaha ... YES !
Are You "Not Alien" ... ?
I'm not super smart. But... couldn't you have just braided the length you wanted THEN cut after you measured the length? Sure it would've been a huge pita to braid 6ft instead of 4ft. But... could've had more left over at the end.
Neutric Speakon terminals are numbererd, but the numbers are raised plastic and TINY TINY TINY, and they are almost impossible to make out because the blastic is black. The terminals are numbered 2x number 1 and 2x number 2.
I just know I'm going to regret clicking on this....😮💨.....
So in "Field Of Dreams" Costner said "Build it they will come". Does that work with stripper poles too?
I am really tempted to bi-wire my Studio 530's up this way, dual monoblock XLSs and all.
You have to twist clockwise for the positive terminals otherwise it is counterintuitive to the earths rotation. Duh.
I didn't know he had a stripper pole in his bedroom.
Firstly, Yes. Secondly it is an Exercise Shaft.
@@ZReviews I'll put that on my Tinder profile and see what happens.
lol @ exercise shaft... I'm going to use that next time on the wife.
Rumor from an Audio Engineer says cotton cord thru the middle of the braid make'm sweeter.
Waiting for the hedd review
_(Mad Science Hour)_ is missing an s in Hour.
The more I watch the funnier it gets. Z you should have practiced on princess Posta's hair first.
Does anyone have a good alternative for the World Best RCA cables? In Canada they're like $150 per cable
the guys at AVS and steve hoffman audio forum like the Blue Jeans Cables. I don't think Zeos has a deal with these guys so I won't post a link. Canare, Audioquest, Mogami also make nice cables.
@@aceofspades6667 No deal with WBC, they are just the nicest ive found. Blue jeans is good too but expensive and not 2 day shipping.
Look at Fisual cables beautiful to look at and very well shielded also made in UK by hand.
Man I was watching your old wire making video a few days ago from years back and decided to order some. Nice timing on this video as I need to learn the ropes!
I thought you were going to say, "this is me, my brain thinking"... I thought you were going to really say...>>> "This is my Brain on Drugs" 😀😁😂🤣
I literally saw this comment as he said it WTFFFF
@@hvskyline1368 lol....
When it comes to cables getting all tangled, you've got to fight fire with fire.
So are you keeping these over the walsh ohms as your everyday speakers then? they really sound better then the walsh ohms? if so sell me the walsh ohms? being dead serious i will buy them
JFC the last thing I want to do is build my own cables... You abstain from being the "tube guy" with a wall of tubes but I find tube rolling to be highly enjoyable. Trying to build a set of cables makes me want to gouge my eyes out with ice picks. Looks like such a pain in the dick.
Bare wire is actually the best connector, so you could just buy a leght of cable, strips the ends and connect them just likevthay to the speakers.
I really enjoy your content however we all have the freedom of speech and as I said I really like what you are doing however my kids and grandkids cannot listen because of some of the language
that you use it kind of like being around someone with really bad body odor.
Again if you could clean up the language you would be much more enjoyable.
I am really trying to be honest with you and respectable.
And again I am still watching and giving you thumbs up 👍🏻 and I am subscribed.
I really think that you are pretty
C 😎 😎 L and awesome except for that and enjoy your content.
Z would not be Z if he didn't swear, or in your language, "use expletives".....
We love him just the way he is, so i apologise if you all think we are uncouth.... (i keep my children away when i watch this content)....
They kinda look like Kimber kable. 🤔
my name is Micah so this video messed with me a bit lol
So 12 AWG is overkill... Okay...
* looking at my 4 mm² (~11 AWG) cables *
* looking at Zeos cables * Oh fuck.
Love crows xls series, they're indestructible
that one part of the video *Breathing HEAVILY intensifies!*
Live cable making with Z, is this porn?
i hope they open the borders soon fucking killed me dude
Talking hands? Where is the person?
Great video. I would definitely like to see more long-form content like this.
#Inspired O.O
Also what's the knife? I've been staring at it for longer than i'd like to admit.
This guy amzn.to/3e9OlZM
cables look awesome man
I only care about the Kriss Vector!!!
it would be great if someone could sell the weaved cable without connectors attached to the ends they could be customized once a customer receives them so it fits their particular needs
If your only looking for a pair, their on ebay.
Try Elf custom cables, they even come in Gold Plated!
Do you miss the STRIPPER POLE?
Torx is best but I will accept JIS.
2 hours of Z talking about cables? Nice.
Still one of the coolest gay guy I ever watched a TH-cam video for this long😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
i heard allot of ppl sayng If u buy some expensive audio cable ... the speaker sound is better THIS IS SOME BULLSHIT , all u need its a 2.5 electric cable for large speakers and that;s it even the banana plugs have no increase in audio quality. #JBL4life :D
Correct. It LOOKS like it sounds better. But it is mostly BS. Just get the gauge correct and don't over-length.
thats why you all viewers need to suport this man and subscribe cuz he the best and the most honest man out there and do quality content for us ,still the cat is luv on first site for my :D and zeos respect for your work
Man your giving us motion sickness.
what is over the face of those crown amps?
Mad Science 2 Hours
Welp now my living room lights are at 100%.
I watched the whole thing.
Nice whips.
looks like a snake
Speakon connectors are awesome, they are an awesome creation, thank you Neutik!!! Neutrik, and Amphenol are currently my favorites.
I was watching this clip hoping you would be showing how to go from a regular speaker wire (unbalanced) to an XLR (balanced) wire. But that was not the objective of this video. I was wondering if you could advise how to do that?
I have run in-wall rated wires for my HT system thru walls which they all gather into a low-voltage box. I'd like to put an XLR wall plate on the box. Connect the in-wall speaker wires to the back of XLR plate and then use XLR cables from the wall to my amp.
But don't know how to couple them. Regular speaker cables have two wires. XLR is 3 wires. How do achieve this connection?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
Was that a stripper pole?
was that a stripper pole?
I just got some svs pb 1000 subs. Are the svs subwoofer cables worth/better than the $10 media bridge subwoofer cables that are on Amazon?????
I wasn't planning on making speaker wires and when I got to the end of the video I was like this was a nice 30 min video then i looked and 2 FUCKING hours had past.
How do you make a video about making speaker wires so entertaining.
At this point i would watch you watching paint dry.
i wil buy eyes closed
Z, I am not gonna go ask a guy who has already said he is willing to higher me once I get a car for the job... Before I get a car. Nor am I gonna try to move my girl from the state she lives in to mine before I got a place to live and stable income. Thats just stupid.
Yea.. made my own B.S. eye candy front main cables. Twisted eight gage with WBT style Banana plug ends. Nice that the ends kinda lock in, but they were the majority of the cost. $64. for the bannannas and $26. For 16 feet of twisted 8 gage OFC. Do they improve the sound.. no. But they look impressive to people. Look at those Shunyata anaconda cables in some of the high end equipment reviews. You can almost here the reviewer getting a stiffy when they see them. Too funny.
Hmm. To be honest. The electrons will be happy with the twist and counter twist for hot and ground respectively. It'll allow them to "flow" as optimally as possible resulting in smooth sound. Pretty good but i am concerned seeing as you lost a strands of copper that'll bottle neck the wires albeit slightly.
was that a good "more money than brains" take? but for real. those look amazing and now i wanna do a project like this.
I know you were being sarcastic, but since you asked. Twisting the wires creates an electro-magnetic field. They’ve been shown to block RF interference, but who knows how much it blocks with with just 2 wires. The weave is what will create the most field. But again, who knows if it makes any difference in speaker cables since it’s such a high voltage signal.
SPAGHETT!!!!!!!!!
Miss these videos. Some zeos was so relatable in this house. We need more Mad Science Hours.
As I know base on his previous video, Zeos’ bedroom is just next to the kitchen. It very small and no window. Then he rented another unit next door later. I really glad that he keep moving forward and success in his business. Now he bought a big beautiful house his own. It’s like a nerd’s dream come true.
19:20 why wouldn’t you terminate one end braid it then cut the excess once? Instead of cutting the 4 foot lengths then braiding then cutting again to 3 foot 🧐 also paracord would fix the color problem and look super cool 👍🏼 maybe next time huh?
Satisfying visuals is referred to as AESTHETIC. There's groups for that haha
I didn’t know jack black was into audio...seriously dude you sound like Jack Black. Good videos
Prefect video for "That's what she said". Too thick, black one is bigger, shove it in., twist it in the hole, etc.
i came here for cables for the sundara... and what did you start on; the Sundara....... lul
in wifi 5ghz signal strength a 90 degree terminal like that attenuates signal db.
I believe the 2 screws on the banana plug is for squeezing the bare wire and the insulation to keep it in place properly.
Bye Bye my cables :( They've been there for a while. Surprised you kept them that long.
GLS Audio (Orange County Speaker) also makes the best locking banana plugs.
Ya, keep moving that gun, slow and steady, better result
When he went In the bedroom I was surprised to see the Heresy have the new style rectangular ports
There IS a heat distribution change if flip them upside down.
I like these mad science hour-long format videos you should do them more often when you got to do is set up for review just not all the time a couple of times a month would be great
I like the length of this video. If you get bored, you can still skip..
I wonder if someone could make cross over that attaches to the back of the heresey, seems they are efficient enough to be able to lose a little
im sure that there are some people who found this video interesting.
Am I the only one who noticed that he has a stripperpole in his bedroom?
Maybe this is similar to the plaited loaf on Great British Baking Show
