The invention is directed to a cable assembly for transmitting an electrical signal between a power source and a load, for example, an audio signal from a tape recorder, compact disc player, phonograph, FM tuner, or the like. The object of the present invention is to provide a cable which minimizes distortion caused by changing electromagnetic fields as the audio signal travels through the cable, minimizes energy losses in the signal, and utilizes a plurality of conductors of multiple gauges for transmitting various frequency bands of the signal. The cable has a first conductor (12) and second conductor (14) with each comprising a central conductor (16) with a strand (18) of fibrous dielectric material wrapping, a plurality of intermediate conductors (20) helically wrapped about the central conductor (16) with each having a strand (22) of fibrous dielectric material wrapping and a plurality of bundles (24) helically wrapped about the intermediate conductors with each bundle having a plurality of conductors (25) and a strand (26) wrapped about the plurality of conductors. The conductors (12) and (14) are covered by insulating material (30), dielectric material (32), a shield (34) and outer sleeve (36). |
