Atlas Hyper Achromatic Bi-Wire Speaker Cable
Replacing a well-loved sibling the new Hyper Bi-wire takes over where the older product initially sat many years ago, at a lower price point. Customers love Atlas Bi-wire cables due to the delivered performance, solid core treble/mid and stranded bass, all four cores in a single jacket.
The new Hyper Bi-Wire speaker cable aims to get customer back in love with Bi-wire and with advances in dielectrics and the new Achromatic plugs delivers performance, substance, and style.
The Hyper Bi-Wire cable employs conductors comprising 72 0.25mm² high-purity OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) strands encapsulated within a carefully selected high-efficiency PTFE (Teflon™) dielectric coating. The resultant conductor is embedded within an anti-vibration cotton filler.
Features :
- Achromatic Z-Plugs
- OFC Conductors
- PTFE Dielectric
- Multi-core + Solid Core
Achromatic Plugs
Atlas’s expert electro-mechanical knowledge has led to the innovation of the next generation of banana plugs known as the ‘Atlas Achromatic Z Plug’, Atlas has focused on improving performance to create a higher performance starting point for their speaker cables as well as eliminating variability in performance. This has been achieved by refocusing on materials and the assembly processes.
Atlas has made 4 key changes with the Achromatic Z plug. Firstly, the barrel of the Achromatic Z plug features a high stability ABS material. This is strong, stable and of superlative surface quality.
In addition, there is also an improvement to the plug's contact resistance achieved by improving the compliance of the beryllium copper contact leaves featured on the Achromatic Z plug. Beryllium copper offers excellent conductivity of signals.
The third change was to upgrade the manufacturability of the plug for pneumatic tool processing.
Finally, there is a reduction in the overall mass of the Z-Plug by 35% which has shown to improve signal transmission.
The above changes mean a solder-free, low mass, self-cleaning, recyclable Z-plug with a non-conductive body.
Oxygen Free Copper (OFC)
OFC is produced through an extrusion process which takes place in an oxygen-free-inert-gas atmosphere. This leads to a reduced oxygen content (10 ppm) when compared to Tough Pitch Copper (TPC) and an improvement in conductivity which typically measures in at between 0.5% and 2% greater than TPC. The OFC process therefore produces a much higher quality audio cable than the TPC process. High purity conductors sound clearer than their unprocessed (TPC) counterparts because there are fewer crystal boundaries present to cause signal degradation.
