Black Rhodium Symphony XLR-XLR (Digital)

SYMPHONY use two silver plated copper cores for positive and negative signal flows. These are connected in opposite directions. Our listening tests have shown when connected this way the noise floor between the musical notes lowers. This gives ‘blacker’ silences in the interval between musical notes and enhances reproduction of the musical edges and natural decays in music.

SYMPHONY is covered in a tightly braided screen to protect the inner cores from picking up radio frequency interference (RFI). Further screening is provided by twisting the cores. An untwisted cable has a large surface area that can more easily pick up RFI/EMI signals generated from Radio, Wifi, Mobile Phones and even central heating systems. The screen is connected at only end in the RCA terminated cable only to prevent ‘loop aerials’ between equipment picking up noise. This reduces the amount of audible distortion in the cable, allowing cleaner, clearer sounds to be enjoyed from your equipment.

Silver wire is well known for its superior sound quality. The relatively high cost of pure silver wire compared with copper precludes its use in all but the high end ranges of audio cables. A very cost effective compromise is the application of a thin surface of silver over copper wire. As higher frequencies travel over the outer surface of the wire, the silver plated wire in SYMPHONY delivers a large part of the sound quality benefits of silver at a small extra fraction of the cost. 

The silver plated wires in SYMPHONY are insulated in PTFE because its low dielectric loss ensures extremely low distortion due to dielectric absorption effects in which sound energy is absorbed in the insulation and released at a later interval of time to create highly audible time-smearing distortion.
