Black Rhodium’s Venus mains cables have been designed to give very clear diction and instrument separation through a “dramatic reduction” of ‘Transient Phase Distortion’. This is done by using thicker insulation than is usual in interconnect cables and increasing the distance between conductors. This reduces the magnetic field seen in each conductor wire as a result of the magnetic field created by the current in the other conductor wire. The benefit in listening is a clearer and more open sound quality.
Venus mains power cables use three silver plated copper cores for positive and negative signal flow and earth. The positive and negative wires are connected in opposite directions. Black Rhodium’s listening tests have shown that when connected in this way the noise floor is lower. This gives ‘blacker’ silences in the interval between musical notes and enhances reproduction of the leading edges and natural decays in music. PTFE insulation is used because its low dielectric loss ensures extremely low distortion due to dielectric absorption effects. This produces sharper leading edges to transients and a more natural decay to the sound of each musical note.
Vibration Stabiliser
Venus mains power cables are fitted with the Graham Nalty legacy Range VS-1 Vibration Stabiliser. This has been specially designed to reduce audible distortion in cables by limiting the effects of vibration travelling through the conductors. The benefits of a tighter sound of the VS-1 are enjoyed in all types of music, but plucked strings such as double basses and harps are reproduced in a much sharper presentation.
