SL speaker links are available as 150 / 200 / 250 mm lengths, and with either 4mm to 4mm, 4mm to spade, spade to 4mm or spade to spade terminations and are around £595 inc VAT for whatever length / termination.

The price seems to reflect the quoted figure for the Vertere Pulse X Standard links, though I'm still trying to track down a figure / supplier for the Pulse X mini's to which the chaps have referred.

Dave - Have you had any luck with Tom Tom Audio and the Vertere Pulse X Mini jump leads? That's where I got mine and a set for Adam. I remember Adam tried a few jump leads at the time and ended up preferring the Verteres. I certainly preferred the Vertere to the NACA5 jump leads that preceded them.

I got Adam his set only a few months ago so I would imagine they are still in production. They do them in spade to space and spade to banana. I remember Adam wanted spade to spade and they sent spade to banana in error - which they corrected swiftly.

Hi Nigel,

Yes, they got back to me today, and confirmed the price at £150.00, considerably less than the quoted price of the Super Lumina's I mentioned above.

The rumour mill has previously suggested that Vertere are the suppliers of Super Lumina.

I have no way of knowing whether or not this is true, but I am assured that any notion that the Super Lumina and Vertere Pulse jumpers are the same is simply not the case.

I'm using NacA5 jumpers at the mo' and have borrowed a set of Chord Signature to try out tomorrow, so we'll see where that goes.

Otherwise, it'll be a straight choice between the SL's and the Vertere ............... can now stretch to the the SL's, bearing in mind the funds saved by deciding not to indulge in the Chord Music interconnect! 

Aw ra best,

Dave.

Dave - have a look at the picture I posted above and how my jumpers are connected. It's a suggestion from my dealer, to get the benefit from the cables and the jumpers.

Adam

I always thought that jumpers were not SQ optimal hence the prefered use of F connections. Now I fully understand that nobody wants to have surgery done on their SLs. Would Salisbury offer F connections as an option?

Chag -
