One of the key features of the Ortofon Black interconnect cable is its use of PCUHD (Pure Copper Ultra High Durability) combined with 6N High Purity Copper and 4N HiFC (High-performance pure copper) signal conductors. This combination results in a well-balanced, neutral, and precise sound.
Designed and manufactured by Ortofon Japan, these cables are a testament to their commitment to excellence and innovation. The Reference Black cable, in particular, is a new generation reference audio cable that sets the bar for high-end audio equipment.
One of the key features of the Ortofon Black interconnect cable is its use of PCUHD (Pure Copper Ultra High Durability) combined with 6N High Purity Copper and 4N HiFC (High-performance pure copper) signal conductors. This combination results in a well-balanced, neutral, and precise sound.
Furthermore, the Reference Black cable utilises two bundles of four different kinds of conductors, which are orientated in a way that ensures their internal structure remains asymmetric with respect to each other. This design allows for the personification of a lossless transmission line, ensuring the highest level of audio quality.
In addition to its impeccable sound quality, the Reference Black cable also boasts a low cable capacitance of 270 pF/m and a cable length of 1.0m.
Each cable in the new Reference series has its unique sonic expression, and the Reference Black stands out as the pinnacle of audio excellence. Its well-balanced, neutral, and precise sound is unrivalled and makes it a must-have for anyone looking for the best audio experience.
Each of the new Reference series cables has its individual sonic expression
