Silver Serpent Balanced XLR Audio Cables are outstanding silver/copper hybrid analog balanced interconnects that are sonically revealing without the harshness associated with most pure silver balanced interconnects. Whether you are looking to maximize the dynamics of your home theater system or 2-channel system, you will enjoy silky-smooth audio using our advanced, low-loss conductors and industry-low capacitance measurements. The Silver Serpent balanced XLR audio cables feature 99.999% pure silver coated conductors.
Silky-smooth audio using our advanced precision conductors and industry-low capacitance measurements. This audio cable is a dual conductor, twisted pair configuration. It features 99.999% pure silver coated conductors. Balanced lines are the preferred method (for hum free) interconnecting of sound systems using a shielded twisted-pair. The principal behind balanced lines is that the signal is transmitted over one wire and received back on another wire. The shield does not carry any information, thus it is free to function as a true shield. This circuit's shining virtue is its great common-mode noise rejection ability. The concept here relies on induced noise showing up equally (or common) on each wire. It is mainly due to EMI (electromagnetic interference: passing through or near magnetic fields), RFI (radio frequency interference: strong broadcast signals), noisy ground references, or a combination of all three. Our Silver Serpent XLR cables exhibit exactly equal impedance from each line relative to ground, ensuring equal noise susceptibility. Since the balanced input stage amplifies only the difference between the lines, it rejects everything else (noise) that is common to the lines.
Like all high-end audio components, the quality of the raw materials is critical to achieving high-performance. This is why we put so much effort into manufacturing our cables with the highest quality raw materials available.
