The Achromatic X RCA plugs represent a significant upgrade over their predecessors, combining cutting-edge technology with Atlas’s commitment to audio purity. Designed to enhance every cable in the Atlas line-up, these new plugs offer:
Highly Refined Solid OFC Pin Material: For superior conductivity and enhanced signal transfer at the cable product/pin boundary.
Cold Weld Termination: Eliminating the need for solder, the calibrated cold weld process ensures a seamless and highly conductive connection for optimal signal integrity.
Self-Cleaning Contacts: Asymmetrical plug contacts maintain pristine contact surfaces over time, reducing signal degradation and improving long-term reliability.
Non-Conducting, Low-Mass Plug Body: Made from high-stability ABS material, the new design eliminates interference and prevents circulating eddy currents, preserving the purity of the audio signal.
Wideband Dielectric: Providing superior bandwidth and enabling clearer, more dynamic sound reproduction.
Recyclable Plug Design: Supporting sustainability without compromising on performance.
“At Atlas Cables, our mission is to continually push the boundaries of audio performance,” said Alan Whyte, Managing Director at Atlas Cables. “The Achromatic X RCA plugs embody our dedication to innovation, offering enthusiasts and music lovers a transformative listening experience. By incorporating features like new pin material, cold weld termination and self-cleaning contacts, we’ve created a product that not only performs at the highest level but also ensures long-term reliability.”
The Achromatic X RCA plugs are now available and have already garnered praise for their ability to elevate audio performance across all cable ranges within our Upgrade and Aspire families. These enhancements make them an indispensable choice for discerning audiophiles and professionals seeking the ultimate in sound clarity and fidelity.
