Know before you buy
The Hollow Oval design helps maintain signal integrity by reducing the skin effect, where high frequencies tend to travel only on the outer surface of a conductor. This allows for a more uniform current distribution, resulting in greater clarity and transparency across the frequency range.
Solder-less compression creates a direct, high-pressure connection between the cable and the connector. This eliminates the potential for signal degradation caused by solder joints, ensuring a more consistent and reliable electrical path.
Yes, the Oval One is designed with a true 75-ohm impedance and high-quality shielding, making it well-suited for digital coaxial audio signals as well as standard analog unbalanced connections.
The full shield coverage acts as a barrier against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. By blocking this external noise, the cable maintains a lower noise floor, which allows for better dynamic range and detail in your music.
While the cable features a sophisticated design, it is not strictly directional. However, for the best results, it is common practice to maintain the same orientation if you choose to mark the cables during your initial setup.
