AUDIOPHILE GRADE Lead using high quality audio materials and components.
Professionally handmade high quality audio leads.
Each cable is handmade and finished to a high standard using Oyaide SS- 47 Audio Grade Silver Solder for a complete professional finish. Each cable is then mechanically and electronically tested before dispatch.

Oyaide SS-47 Audio Grade Silver Solder
The SS-47, the Oyaide original hi-fidelity solder, is produced in order to maximize the capacity of cables and connecters by eliminating its sound character.
After the careful consideration of the importance of the contact and joining area, Oyaide finally achieved to produce the high-fidelity audio specialized solder
They have tried to improve the quality by always selecting best material . There is no exception about this audio grade solder, SS-47. Compared to general solders which usually contain 3N (99.9%) pure tin, SS-47 contains 4N (99.993%) pure tin achieved by excluding impurities to the maximum
Furthermore, 4.7% silver and 1.7% copper are contained for the purpose of improvement of electric conductivity and durability.

Van Damme Pro Grade Classic XKE Pro-Patch Cable
Balanced/Stereo, Patch Cable
2 Core and Screen, Silver and UPOFC Wire Core, UPOFC Wire Screen
Van Damme classic XKE Pro-Patch cable has a low overall diameter of 4.85 mm, 1.15mm thinner than the XKE Microphone cable. The UPOFC (Ultra Pure Oxygen Free Copper) wire ensures the signals integrity and its tightly packed construction ensures no compromise when reducing its overall diameter. This cable looks and works extremely well with stereo mini jack to stereo mini Jack cables. This cable is used extensively by ‘Abbey Road Studios’ and the ‘BBC’
2 Core and Screen relates to the amount of carrier signals inside the cable, in this case three. This is a balanced/stereo cable. The 2 cores are the signal carriers and the screen is the ground/shield
