Know before you buy
The hollow oval geometry helps to minimize skin effect and current bunching, which are common issues in solid conductors. This design allows for more efficient signal transfer, resulting in a cleaner, more realistic sound.
The cable features dedicated EMI/RFI shielding to block external electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. This ensures that your signal remains quiet and free from the background noise often caused by nearby electronic devices.
Yes, the Copper Oval-In Micro is available with either RCA or XLR terminations. You should select the connector type that matches the inputs and outputs on your specific audio components.
FEP is a high-quality dielectric material that provides excellent insulation and electrical stability. It helps maintain the integrity of the signal as it travels through the cable, contributing to the neutral and accurate sound profile.
Yes, the 'Micro' designation refers to its compact form factor. It is designed to be flexible and low-profile, making it much easier to route in cramped setups compared to thicker, stiffer high-end cables.
