Know before you buy
The Hollow Oval design helps minimize frequency smear and allows for faster signal rise times. This results in a cleaner, more accurate digital transmission compared to standard solid-core cables.
Choose the RCA version if your equipment uses standard coaxial digital inputs and outputs. Opt for the Neutrik XLR version if your components support balanced AES/EBU digital connections, which are often preferred in professional or high-end audio setups to reduce interference.
Continuous Cast Copper is processed to have fewer grain boundaries than standard copper. This reduces signal resistance and potential distortion, ensuring a more transparent and precise digital signal transfer.
Yes, the cable features a flexible braided conductor construction. This makes it significantly easier to route and bend behind tight equipment spaces compared to stiff, solid-core digital cables.
At the standard 1.0-meter length, this cable is optimized to maintain signal integrity and minimize reflections. While digital cables are generally less sensitive to length than analog cables, this specific length is ideal for most home audio configurations.
