SOUNDFILAMENT Ultra-Detailed Audiophile Interconnect
Thicker is better? Think again. The SoundFilament interconnects have already
dropped a few jaws in our demo room. Made from hair thin silver plated copper
wire in a translucent sleeve and terminated with quality Neutrik® RCA
connectors, these interconnects beg to be heard. Prepare to be shocked.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Screened cables have been the standard in interconnects for many years.
Unfortunately stranded cable and screens easily produce a smeared sound and
work-arounds are often difficult and costly. Enter the SoundFilament. Because of
a recent awakening of interest in the use of twisted cable for high-end audio (a
technique used to minimise noise in high speed network cable), we decided to
experiment with thinner twisted cable interconnects. What twisting cables does
is that it allows exactly equal amounts of noise, but of opposing polarity, to
enter the cables. This noise cancels out entirely upon reaching the device
receiving the signal. The strategy is called Common Mode (Noise) Rejection, or
CMR, and is employed in XLO cables amongst others. Once one gets rid of the need
for a screen one can easily sidestep the use of thick dielectric sleeves and
produce a cable that's mostly insulated by one of the best dielectrics: air. The
SoundFilament uses ultra thin pure copper wires with a silver plated exterior
for a livelier sound. Very thin polyethylene insulation and an electrically
benign clear polyethylene sleeve protect and insulate the strands, and high
quality Neutrik plugs complete these cables.
