Sword cables are made with bifilar litz winding, where an inner set of helically wound wire is run in one direction and an outer set in another direction. This divides the fields in opposing directions, canceling the magnetic field. Sword behaves as a non-inductive and phase stable cable. Sword cables come with interchangeable CombiCon connectors, providing both spade and banana termination.

Sword Loudspeaker Cable is
SUPRA’s flagship. The secret is the bifilar wound litz conductors, each comprising 24 individually insulated wires.
The bifilar winding is built with 12 of these wires helically wound in one direction and 12 in the opposite direction. This divides the magnetic field into opposing directions resulting in self-cancellation. Because Sword’s conductors comprise a number of insulated wires, dynamic skin effect is cancelled. Therefore Sword behaves as a non-inductive and phase stable cable. The difference in phase shift from 500Hz to 100kHz is only 0.002 deg. This allows for perfect timing. Patent holder: Johnny Svärd.
What does it sound like? Supra Sword passes the most complex music transients without any deformations. Signal delay is the same at all musical frequencies. Therefore it vanishes, giving a clear 3-dimensional presence, a sure sign of the highest fidelity.
