Product Information
The Atlas Ascent 75 Ohm SP DIF digital cable is a superior unbalanced design cable with a well-defined impedance of 75 ohms. The central conductor is made from OCC copper which is insulated by an extremely low-loss foamed polyethylene dielectric. The return conductor is made from OFC copper. The tightly woven wire mesh together with an aluminium foil, provides 100% rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI) ensuring that the music signal is free from any external interference or noise. The conductors are covered by a soft PVC sleeve and finished in a grey woven fabric.
The Ascent may be terminated with BNC plugs or our exclusive Atlas RCA plugs made from OCC copper with a high gloss silver finish. These plugs provide a continuous path for the signal virtually free of the discontinuities that can degrade the music signal in subtle but audible ways.
The end result of this new development is a natural-sounding interconnect that neither subtracts from the music, nor adds any false details or unwanted colouration; additions that are often heard as “improvements” of the sound. This outstanding new interconnect cable is a superb match with the Ascent range of analogue interconnect and speaker cables allowing music-lovers to achieve a barrier free signal path for their music.
The Ascent digital cable can be supplied with BNC plugs as well as RCA plugs.
Complementary products:
Complementary products are the Ascent pseudo balanced interconnect with RCA plugs, the fully balanced interconnect with XLR plugs, with two speaker cables, the Ascent 2.0 and the Ascent 3.50.
All Ascent speaker cables are made with pure OCC conductors and Teflon dielectrics; the Ascent 3.50 will satisfy listeners that want more bass from larger speakers; the Ascent 2.0 is the cable that suits most systems with book shelf or compact stand mounted speakers; it's the one to audition first.
Recommended accessories:
Recommended accessories for even better results, are the Atlas noise reducing Shield Caps, Atlas Eos power cables and the Atlas Eos balanced power supply.
Removal of the brass links between HF and LF terminals typically provided on speakers, and their replacement with better quality Atlas links will also contribute to much improved sound and listening pleasure.
