Detailed Description

Conductors and Insulation

The EpicX ARAY Analogue DIN cable uses high-bandwidth, silver-plated oxygen-free copper conductors. These conductors are insulated with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), a material chosen for its superior dielectric properties and durability.

Shielding System

The cable features a multi-tiered shielding system. Each conductor pair is individually shielded with a high-frequency foil, and an additional overall foil shield provides further protection against high-frequency noise. This multi-layered approach minimizes signal interference and preserves the integrity of the audio signal.

ARAY Geometry

The ARAY geometry employed in the EpicX ARAY cable significantly improves detail and coherence in the audio signal. This proprietary design technique helps to maintain the rhythm and musicality of the original recording.

Connector Pins

Fitted with Chord Company’s ChorAlloy™ plated connector pins, the EpicX ARAY ensures reliable and high-quality connections. ChorAlloy™ plating offers better conductivity and resistance to tarnishing compared to traditional gold plating.

Strain Relief System

The cable includes a zero compression strain relief system, which prevents changes to impedance caused by physical stress on the cable. This ensures consistent performance and longevity of the cable.
