LFD Audio Silver Reference Speaker Cables LFD Audio Silver Reference 1.25m Bi-Wire Speaker Cables. Locking Bananas at both ends. Excellent Used Condition. These cables were a custom order through Howard Popeck of LFD4U prior to his retirement. They were used between my Convergent Audio Technology mono blocks and Tannoy Canterbury Speakers. Change of speaker/amplifier location made these cables too short and no longer required. The Silver Reference range of cables is the entry in the silver range of cables made by LFD Audio. A new 3m pair of these cables currently sells for more than EURO3,50
Generating expert take…
LFD Audio, a boutique British hi-fi manufacturer, traces its origins to 1987 in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex, England. Founded by Dr. Richard Bews, a PhD student of Professor Hawksford—who pioneered influential audio research groups—the brand embodies a commitment to minimalist, low-distortion electronics. From its early days, LFD has prioritized hand-assembly by Bews himself, crafting components with painstaking selection of parts for sonic purity over aesthetic flair.
The company focuses primarily on solid-state amplifiers, including long-running integrated models like the LE, Zero Mk III LE, Mistral, and NCSE, alongside specialized gear such as the MCT preamplifier. LFD also produces high-end cables, interconnects, and phono leads, often refined in collaboration with dealers like Unique Audio, which has partnered with them for over 30 years. Their lineup eschews flashy features, turntables, speakers, DACs, or headphones, zeroing in on amplification and cabling as core strengths.
Positioned firmly in the high-end niche, LFD commands a cult following among discerning audiophiles for delivering some of the most natural-sounding solid-state amps available, despite their utilitarian, "butt ugly" appearance. As a low-profile, one-man operation far from mainstream fanfare, it appeals to buyers seeking uncompromised performance in a vintage-inspired, boutique package.
