Ailsa Achromatic.
Ailsa Achromatic is a sophisticated OCC speaker cable offering discerning audiophiles a true taste of ‘high-end’ performance. Available terminated in Z (Z-plug) or S (spade) versions (contact us for spade connectors)
All cables inevitably lose some of the audio signal and/or add their own colourations. Our newest product range, every aspect of the Ailsa family is designed and engineered to reduce this distortion to extremely low levels – meaning you get more of your music with an absolute minimum taken away or added. Less is indeed more.
As you ascend through our wide range of speaker cables, Ailsa is the first in our product hierarchy to use OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) copper conductors. With a 3.0mm² diameter, the generous conductor cross-section gives superior low-frequency performance, while carefully optimised construction featuring our (SSG) super-stabilised conductor geometry ensures Ailsa is exceptionally transparent to the signal for a cable of this class. For the dielectric, we use a high-efficiency microporous PTFE which means virtually no ‘smearing’ or other signal degradation.
Our acclaimed low-mass non-conductive Achromatic Z connectors eliminate any possible detrimental effects of magnetic eddy currents, and precision -calibrated cold-weld termination gives a superior connection to conventional solder fixing, with increased signal continuity (fewer ‘barriers’ created by different materials).
The result is a superior cable with minimal discernible character which allows your system to convey a coherent balance of detail, timing and dynamics which might well surprise you.
Yorkshire AV view:
As you progress up the ATLAS Cable range - a lot more detail is put forward to the listener. Soundstage is wider, taller and the placement of objects more realistic. The music is altogether clearer with a real emphasis on it sounding more grown up and relaxed / easier listening.
This is achieved through:
- Improved conductor (i.e. OFC -> OCC -> OCC Solid core)
- Improved dielectric (Foamed Polyethylene -> PTFE)
- Improved connector type (Achromatic)
- Improved cable construction
- Improved jacket
