Many cable materials and techniques have been available for a long time, some as long as a hundred years! What is advanced is our ability to mix materials and
apply techniques in new ways that achieve outstanding overall results. These subtle advances under the surface can make clear audible and performance differences.
The key factors that control a cable performance are listed below.
|
|
|
|
Insulation/dielectric
Core size and stranding
Screen or not to screen
Physical spacing between cores and screen
Mechanical construction
|
|
In order to optimise our use of technology and build the best cable we need to understand exactly how each of these factors effect the performance.
The following pages explain this and show how a system sounds better with a well designed cable.
