One of the key features of the Reference Blue cable is the use of 4N HiFC and 4N OFC pure copper conductors in the correct proportions. This combination results in a transparent and stable sound, providing a wide dynamic range that captures every detail of the audio. This is essential for professionals who demand high performance and precision in their sound reproduction.

One of the key features of the Reference Blue cable is the use of 4N HiFC and 4N OFC pure copper conductors in the correct proportions. This combination results in a transparent and stable sound, providing a wide dynamic range that captures every detail of the audio. This is essential for professionals who demand high performance and precision in their sound reproduction.
Furthermore, the unique design of the cable, with three bundles of conductors placed in an equilateral triangle and dampened by Halogen-free highly resilient elastomer material, ensures optimal signal transmission and minimizes interference. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the audio signal and delivering a pure, unadulterated sound.
The Ortofon Reference Blue cable also features their original gold-plated RCA terminals with a collet chuck mechanism. This ensures a secure and stable connection over time, even with frequent plugging and unplugging.
