Swedish hi-fi cable specialist Supra has announced a new series of modular speaker cable connectors, the Combicon.

The connectors are made of 24K gold-plated Beryllium copper alloy (a high strength alloy also used for making armour-piercing bullets, apparently), rather than the much more common gold-plated brass, which Supra claims offers higher conductivity, though it also means a higher price.

The connectors allow the cable to be attached straight on axis or at a 90 degree angle, offering extra versatility for those awkward, cramped connections.

The series comes in three different types:

• CombiCon Banana Set – £30
  4 Connector Bodies
  4 pieces of Banana/BFA connector
  24K gold- plated loudspeaker connector for cables up to 6mm sq
  The banana pin also fits BFA plugs or connectors

• CombiCon Spade Set – £30
  4 Connector Bodies
  4 pieces of Spade connector
  24K gold plated loudspeaker connector for cables up to 6mm sq
  Fits binding posts up to 9mm diameter

• CombiCon Kit best value – £35
  4 Connector Bodies
  4 pieces of Spade connector
  4 pieces of Banana/BFA connector

All varieties of the Supra Combicon are available now.
