Atlas Element Achromatic RCA

Atlas Equator Achromatic RCA Cable

DESCRIPTION AND FEATURES

A consistent award winner for over a decade (winning What HiFi’s Best Interconnect Award 4 times), the latest generation Equator Achromatic builds on the strengths of its predecessors to deliver an even greater price/performance ratio.

Sophisticated, involving sound and exceptional value for money.

The Equator Achromatic is of course fitted with our Achromatic non-magnetic RCA plug. The low-mass Achromatic connector features a precision calibrated cold-weld connection, creating a coherent, continuous signal path. The signal conductor is now high purity OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) copper encased with a superbly constructed double screen to provide maximum resistance to RFI (Radio Frequency Interference), which can raise noise levels in a poorly shielded cable.

The result is a beautifully balanced interconnect which offers a large three-dimensional soundstage and fine levels of resolution without any sense of exaggerated ‘detail,’ which is superficially impressive but quickly fatiguing to listen to.

The Equator range includes subwoofer, interconnect, streaming and speaker cables.

Achromatic RCA Plug

The Achromatic RCA is a low-mass, non-compression, constant impedance, self-cleaning, solder-free construction plug.

OCC Copper

OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) process was developed by Professor Ohno, from the Chiba Institute of Technology, to manufacture a very high purity single grain copper or silver. There are only a handful of companies in the world manufacturing via this method.

PEF

PEF (Foamed Polyethylene). The foaming process uses a blowing agent, of which there are two types. Atlas uses the gas-foamed method which creates a more inert, consistent and higher quality product.

Co-ax

Central conductor (signal path) surrounded by dielectric material encased within a circular conducting screen which acts as the signal return path.
