Tellurium Q UB-SC (1m) Speaker Cable
302,00 €
Tellurium Q UB-SC (1m) is a speaker cable designed to connect an amplifier to passive speakers. Its one-metre length is intended for short connections where the equipment is positioned close to the speaker. The production version is described as thinner and more flexible than the heavy, rigid prototype. The connector type and number of cable runs must be selected to suit the individual system.
Tellurium Q UB-SC (1m) is a one-metre speaker cable designed to connect an amplifier to passive speakers. The Tellurium Q UB-SC cable is suitable for systems where a short one-metre run is sufficient between the components.
Compared with the heavy, rigid prototype, the production version of the cable is described as thinner and more flexible. This is a relative comparison and does not, by itself, define the cable’s absolute thickness or flexibility.
Choosing a one-metre cable
A one-metre length is best suited to equipment positioned close together. The cable can be a practical choice when the power amplifier is placed near the speaker. It is also suitable for a short connection in a compact stereo or home cinema system.
How to determine the required length
The 1m designation specifies the cable length. Before choosing, measure the actual route between the terminals of the two components. Follow the intended cable path rather than measuring the straight-line distance between the equipment cabinets.
Allow a small amount of extra length so that equipment can be moved and the connectors can be inserted comfortably. The cable should not hang under tension or pull the terminals sideways. Remember to account for shelf edges, the rear panels of furniture and any other bends along the route.
A stereo system normally requires a separate cable run for each channel. Before purchasing, therefore, determine both the required length and the number of runs you need. The “1m” marking alone does not indicate whether the product is supplied as one cable, a stereo pair or a terminated set.
Connectors and cable termination
The model name does not specify a particular connector type. It does not confirm banana plugs, spade connectors or bare conductors prepared for connection. Before ordering, check the terminal design on both the amplifier and the speakers.
Banana plugs can only be used with terminals that accept them. Spade connectors require a suitable clamping point and compatible dimensions. When using bare conductors, the terminals must allow the cable to be clamped securely. The selected termination must be compatible with both components being connected.
Do not identify the connector configuration from a single product photograph or from the model abbreviation. Termination and the unit supplied in the package are separate purchasing considerations. Both should be confirmed before assembling a complete cable set for the system.
Installation and cable routing
Switch off the amplifier and the other system components before making any connections. Maintain consistent polarity from the amplifier to the speaker on every channel. Connect the positive terminal to positive and the negative terminal to negative.
When planning the route, consider how much the cable will actually need to bend, since the comparison with the prototype does not define its absolute flexibility. Avoid sharp bends close to the connectors. Leave a relaxed curve so that the cable’s weight is not supported solely by a terminal or plug.
Do not trap the cable under furniture legs or route it through a doorway. Its outer body could be subjected to continuous mechanical stress in these locations. Arrange any excess length loosely rather than forming a tight, rigidly secured coil.
Use in stereo and home cinema systems
In a stereo system, one cable run is used for the left channel and another for the right channel. The one-metre version is suitable only when both speakers can be reached without placing the cable under tension. A different equipment layout may require longer runs.
In a home cinema system, this cable can be used for one passive-speaker channel. A short length is most likely to be appropriate for a speaker positioned near the amplifier. A one-metre run may not be long enough for surround channels placed farther away.
Identifying the model
Ultra Black and Blue Diamond cables may look similar externally. They should be distinguished by reading the identification printed on the cable itself. A similar appearance is not sufficient evidence for identifying a particular model.
When selecting or connecting a cable you already own, read the complete printed marking. This reduces the risk of confusing the UB-SC with another cable from the same product range. It is especially important in a system that already uses several different cable runs.

FAQ
Will a one-metre cable be long enough for my system?
A one-metre cable is generally suitable only when the power amplifier is positioned close to the speaker. Make your decision by measuring the real routing path the cable will follow.
Does this offer include one cable or a stereo pair?
The “1m” designation specifies the length only. Before buying, confirm whether the selected unit means one cable run, a pair or a terminated set.
Which connectors should I choose?
The correct choice depends on the terminals fitted to both components. The model name does not confirm a particular termination, so do not rely on the abbreviation alone.
Is this cable suitable for a stereo amplifier?
Yes. It is intended to connect an amplifier’s speaker outputs to passive speakers. For a stereo system, check the required length and number of cable runs for both channels.
Can it be used in a home cinema system?
It can be used for an individual passive-speaker channel if one metre is sufficient. Every additional channel requires its own cable run of an appropriate length.
Is the cable suitable for active speakers?
It is not suitable for a conventional RCA or XLR line-level connection. Use it only for a speaker-level connection with terminals designed for that purpose.
How can I distinguish it from a Blue Diamond cable?
Read the model identification printed on the cable. The two cables may look similar externally, so their appearance alone is not enough to identify them.
