The Ricable Dedalus Bridge is a set of four Hi-End speaker jumpers designed to replace the traditional metal jumpers supplied with many loudspeakers equipped with dual binding posts. A solution developed to optimize the connection between the High Level and Low Level terminals and enhance the overall performance of the audio system.
When a loudspeaker is used in a conventional configuration, without Bi-Wiring or Bi-Amping, the two binding posts on each speaker must be connected together. Dedalus Bridge jumpers replace standard brass plates with higher-quality conductors, manufactured using Ricable MARC 7N technology.
The Dedalus Bridge is available in four combinations, allowing you to choose the configuration best suited to your loudspeakers and audio system: DPF, DPB, EPF and EPB.
| Model | Termination | Conductor |
|---|---|---|
| DPF | Spade / Spade | Dedalus Speaker MKII |
| DPB | Spade / Banana | Dedalus Speaker MKII |
| EPF | Spade / Spade | Dedalus Speaker ELITE |
| EPB | Spade / Banana | Dedalus Speaker ELITE |
In a Hi-Fi system, every connection contributes to the final result. Speaker jumpers, often overlooked, are positioned directly in the signal path between the High and Low terminals and can therefore represent an important element of the overall system configuration.
Ricable developed the Dedalus Bridge to provide a solution specifically dedicated to this connection, using the same construction principles adopted for its high-end speaker cables.
The standard 16 cm length and high flexibility allow the jumpers to be used even when the speaker terminals are positioned very close together or have a greater distance between them.
All Dedalus Bridge versions use 7N MARC copper conductors with a 6.4 mm² cross-section. Multicore Annealed Ricable Conductor technology uses numerous fine strands with a diameter of 0.10 mm, designed to achieve a compact and flexible conductive structure.
The two product families differ in their conductor construction:
The DPF and EPF versions feature spade/spade terminations, while the DPB and EPB versions use a spade/banana combination.
The spades are made from pure copper, while the banana plugs are made from copper/tellurium. The connectors feature an all-copper body with 24K gold plating applied through a dedicated gold/copper electrolysis process.
The double-offset spades are compatible with binding posts up to 8 mm in diameter, providing broad compatibility with loudspeakers available on the market.
Like the other products in the Dedalus range, the jumpers are handcrafted in Italy. Every stage of production is carefully inspected, combining advanced construction technology, selected materials and artisanal craftsmanship.
The Dedalus Bridge has been developed to integrate optimally with Ricable Dedalus and Magnus speaker cables, but it can also be used with speaker cables from other ranges and manufacturers.
It is therefore an interesting solution for anyone who wants to improve the connection between the binding posts of their loudspeakers without necessarily having to replace the entire speaker cable system.
