Chord Signature Ohmic Links
About twenty years ago, Bi-wiring speakers was all the rage. That's where you run one set of speaker cable to the high frequency input on your speakers and a separate set to the low frequency input. In this process you do away with the high to low frequency metal jumpers on the back of the speaker.
Normally the jumper links that come with a set of speakers are bits of metal and not made to perform well sonically. The positive effects of Bi-wiring were 90% the effect of getting rid of those crappy jumper links.
These days when a client comes in asking about Bi-wiring, we make sure they first try some good quality jumper links.
Like a good quality speaker cable these will define the image, you'll hear more of the tail-end of the notes - the ringing of the piano strings dying slowly away into silence...

Van Den Hul the First Metal Screen 1.0M RCA
The FIRST ® Metal Screen is an extension to our “The FIRST ®” series of coaxial Linear Structured Carbon ® (LSC) interconnects designed for highest quality audio and SPDIF digital signal transport. The FIRST ® Metal Screen is a special version of our The FIRST ® with the same basic construction, however, as its name already indicates, a dense braided high quality metal (*) screen covering its Linear Structured Carbon ® shield has been added. As such The FIRST ® Metal Screen can be looked upon as the coaxial (unbalanced) version of our The SECOND ® balanced Linear Structured Carbon ® interconnect which is also metal screened. *: High purity dense Silver coated high purity Matched Crystal OFC. The major difference between the members of our “The FIRST ®” series is their shield series resistance; Our The FIRST ®, The FIRST ® Ultimate and The FIRST ® Metal Screen progressively exhibit a lower shield resistance. (Respectively: ~14, ~4.8 and 0.0049 Ohm/m.).
Although both first mentioned 100% metal free versions perform hum and noise free in more than 95% of all line level interconnect applications, The FIRST ® Metal Screen with its lowest shield resistance has been specially designed for those situations where excessive ground currents flowing through the cable shield are present (e.g. with some tube equipment), in complex grounding situations and/or where extra shielding against strong external electrical interference is required (e.g. in highly electrical noise polluted areas).

Analysis Plus Copper Oval-In Micro Interconnects RCA or XLR, 0.5M
The MICRO Copper Oval-IN packs a lot in a small cross-sectional area. Three 18 gauge conductors and FEP dielectric in a micro design give great performance in a compact design. These interconnects were designed using our patented hollow oval geometry to control current density in a form suitable for braiding from pure oxygen free copper. The signal lines are then wrapped with a shield to provide protection from EMI/RFI. THe result is a super quiet, extremely neutral cable, priced well within any budget.
RCA connectors are standard, with a balanced version featuring Neutrik XLR connectors available as an option.
Please call us for exact terminations and lengths that are available and in stock.

Nordost Blue Heaven USB cable, 1.0M
The Nordost USB cables are our go-to for people who care about the quality of their digital source.
It's like turning the tap on all the way to let the music flow out.
The sound of instrumentalists and vocalists becomes instantaneous and things are sharper, clearer thus making small nuances in the music more apparent.
The Heimdall 2 is the real gold standard with dual Micro Filament but the Blue Heaven uses the same principle with only one strand of FEP (Mono Micro Filament)

Van Den Hul THE D102 III RCA/XLR 1.0m
With our ever continuing technical improvements, it is logical to replace the already since 1982 available D - 102 Series (after 24 upgrades in the meantime) by an actual HYBRID version. Together with our Linear Structured Carbon ® technology, we have therefore applied some number of strands from our highly acclaimed 3T-technology into the new D-102 III Hybrid.
The D - 102 III HYBRID is a warm yellow-orange colored very flexible balanced interconnect with a 3 layer shielding.
- The 2 centre conductors are made of 40 dense and very pure silver coated strands made of a very high grade Matched Crystal (MC) OFC. Over each centre conductor an extra Linear Structured Carbon ® (LSC) saturated layer is applied.
This extra layer of LSC highly improves the quality of the signal transmission by performing electrical bridging on micro-scale and by converting the external magnetic field close to the conductors into an electrical signal again. - 4 strands of 3T have been applied into the design. 3T: True Transmission Technology offers a much higher resolution and detail compared to any other metal technology used so far.
- The resistance of each centre conductor is 5.5 Ohm/100 meter.
- The capacitance between the 2 internal conductors is a very low 37 pF/meter; so in balanced operation, even in rather high impedant circuitry, the overall losses and/or phase-shift remain very low.
In unbalanced operation the two internal conductors can simply be taken together with the shield acting as the signal return, though the better and preferred layout (which we apply) has the shield only connected to signal ground at the signal source side (marked by a ground-end marking sticker) and one of the internal conductors functions as signal return.
- The insulation of the two centre conductors is made of polyethylene foam; one in white, the other in brown.
- Surrounding the centre conductors, special treated artificial filler fibres provide a perfect protection against losses caused by increased humidity over a longer period.
- The triple shielding consists of 2 helical layers with a total of 180 dense and very pure silver coated strands made of a very high grade of Matched Crystal (MC) OFC with an extra layer of LSC saturated tape in between.
The warm yellow-orange colored jacket is made of our HULLIFLEX ®.
The external diameter of the D - 102 III HYBRID is 7.25 mm.; a size which perfectly matches our C - 7.3 RCA type connectors.
Please call us to make sure we have the length and termination you require in stock.$375.00 - The 2 centre conductors are made of 40 dense and very pure silver coated strands made of a very high grade Matched Crystal (MC) OFC.

Nordost White Lightning RCA or XLR analogue interconnects, 0.6M
These are Nordost's entry level interconnects and this is a company with which you can spend 40K on a set of interconnects. The White Lightning is no slouch though and Nordost have incorporated some clever design elements which make these cables really sparkle.
Silver plated oxygen free copper with a 99.9999% purity is a feature throughout the Nordost range and White Lightning is no exception to that. The conductors are also coated in FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene). This is a type of insulation that increases the dielectric properties of the cable making for a quicker signal transmission.
This is perhaps why Nordost cables sound 'fast'. There's lots of attack to the sound. Instruments and vocals come into focus because the beginnings of each note is heard more clearly. The variation of articulation is such a crucial part of individual musician's artistry and you can hear that more clearly with the White Lightning.

Analysis Plus Chocolate Oval 0.5m RCA or XLR
This is the entry point into the Analysis Plus range of interconnects but is a substantial, rather high end cable in its own right.

I love their quality terminations as well. We put our cables through a lot in the demo area and the Analysis Plus cables never need resoldering because their ends have come off.
This Chocolate Oval Interconnect comes in a choice of RCA or XLR terminations. There is no additional cost for the balanced XLR.

Van Den Hul D-501 Hybrid RCA Cable
The D - 501 HYBRID is sonically one of the best cables in Van den Hul's range. Not really expensive and with a very high performance quality. The 2 signal lines are made each of 19 x 0.1 mm very high grade OFC wires with the highest density of very pure silver coating and a centre steel wire to provide extra mechanical reinforcement and strain relief which can also be used as a ground wire for a turntable.
