These plugs are not merely high grade. Every possible step has
been taken to achieve true "State of the Art". Every one of
our
products is made under our direct supervision to the highest
and
strictest standards. Since even minute vibrations can lead to
failure, we carefully choose each part to assure ease of assembly
and operation and, especially, safety. Materials are selected
for
superior sound quality, durability and reliability. To achieve
our
aim, cost is a secondary consideration. Avoiding unnecessary
decoration and complexity, we are proud to deliver these
products of value for your listening pleasure.
P/C-037
P/I-CF
Made
by Acrolink, the CF series represents the ultimate in AC connectivity.
Contacts are polished Phosphor Bronze with twice polished
1.5 micron thick Gold plating followed by 0.3 micron Palladium
plating. Carbon fiber outer barrel absorbs EMI and stray electrons
making it the quietest AC connector available today.
Receptacles
and Blades
The
basic material employed is deoxidized
Phosphor Bronze (1.4mm thick) for strength
and secure contact. When connected they
can sustain a load greater than 7 kg. The
surface is thoroughly polished (twice).
Retentivity
Over 30kg
Pull
strength of the blade terminals and cable combined
is over 30 kg. We achieved this specification as
a result of our ongoing commitment to safety.
Plating
Process
P-046 and C-046
Super
thick (1.5 micron) 24K Gold plating is applied directly on the polished
surface
of the receptacle and blade and is then polished twice again. A
final plating
of Palladium (0.3 micron) is applied and polished twice again.

The
quality and choice of plating materials alters the sound dramatically.
Where
the Rhodium sounds pure and bold, the Gold sounds warm, spacious
and luxurious
and Gold Palladium is pure, vivid and extended. Any one of the
three is far
above standard "audiophile" grade connectors. It's up to you to choose
which suits your taste and system most.
P-037
and C-037
Super
thick (1.5 micron) Silver plating is applied directly on the
polished
surface of the receptacle and blade and is then polished twice
again. A
final plating of Rhodium (0.3 micron) is applied and polished
twice again.
A
combination of the metals chosen, precisely determined thicknesses
of
each layer and and the polishing process determine the overall
sonic
quality of the P-037 and C-037.
P-079
and C-079
Super
thick (2.0 micron) 24K Gold is plated directly on the polished
surface of the receptacle and blade which
is then polished twice again.
The
quality and choice of plating materials alters the sound dramatically.
Where the Rhodium sounds pure and bold, the Gold sounds warm,
soft
and luxurious. Either one is far above standard "audiophile"
grade
connectors. It's up to you to choose which suits your taste
and system.
