Element Metik 3.5mm-3.5mm (M-M, 1M)

3.5mm-3.5mm M-M, 1 Meter (3.3 feet) Cable

OVERVIEW:

3.5mm digital connections have become increasingly common with the popularity of high-performance ‘dual purpose’ personal audio devices and DACs, many of which are frequently used as components in main HiFi systems.

Metik 3.5mm version of our multi-award winning Element interconnect.

The Metik range of solder-free cold-weld jack plugs brings the class-leading continuous signal path performance of our Achromatic and Ultra RCA connectors to portable device interconnects. Featuring precision copper alloy contacts with a PTFE (Teflon™) dielectric, the Metik plugs provide a high quality, secure termination for connecting mobile devices where sound quality is paramount.

Conventional jack plugs typically suffer degraded signal integrity, principally by using low-grade components, soldered connections and/or screw fixings which distort the cable dielectric (insulation), which produces measurable changes in the cable’s performance.

Metik connectors are available in 3.5 & 6.3mm stereo and 2.5mm mono gold-plated options enclosed within a light-weight aluminum alloy cobalt finished sleeve.

THE ATLAS DIFFERENCE:  

1. Conductor Purity   

Atlas uses the highest-quality conductive materials to minimize the impurities that impede the signal’s path. Their top-of-the-range products use incredibly pure OCC copper and solid OCC silver conductors.   

2. Manufacturing Consistency   

Atlas avoids soldering and the variability it introduces. All Atlas products are manufactured using a proprietary cold-welding process to fuse the connector to the cable, creating an airtight metal-on-metal contact that is identical every time.

3. Signal Screening   

Atlas takes great pains to screen our cables from the effects of the noisy environs in which modern systems are embedded. They also offer unique solutions for draining interference and noise, both within and outside of the cable.  

4. Harmony of Materials   

Atlas focuses on establishing conductive constancy or equilibration between the main conductor, the plug, and the insulating material. Audio signals are delicate — so wherever possible, they avoid combining disparate materials of differing resistances, and choose materials that will have the least possible effect on the audio signal.   

5. Acclaimed in 30+ Countries   

The Atlas “state of the art” products, such as the award-winning Mavros and Asimi ranges, are regarded as being among the finest available anywhere at any price, receiving accolades in Europe, the US, Canada, Japan, and the Far East.   

Atlas products are researched, designed, and produced in Kilmarnock, in the west of Scotland. Everyone on the Atlas team has spent their lives in the hi-fi and audio-visual industry.
