Hyper dd Ultra RCA

The latest generation Hyper dd Ultra interconnect offers a sophisticated, evenly balanced sound which draws you into the musical performance.

The conductor in the Hyper dd cable is a solid core OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) copper core surrounded by multiple bunch-stranded ‘satellite’ conductors of high purity OCC copper, The ‘speed’ characteristic of analogue cables is determined primarily by the dielectric performance of the insulator applied around the conductor, Hyper’s conductors are encapsulated within a PEF (Foamed Polyethylene) dielectric, with excellent immunity to interference and noise.

Termination is via our wide-band, low-mass solder-free Ultra connectors – the fewer discontinuities in the signal path, the lower the level of signal degradation and the better the performance.

The Hyper range also includes DIN & XLR termination options, digital interconnects, and single/bi-wire speaker cables.

Optionally available with Grun Coherent Earthing System. Please inquire.

The Atlas Dual Drain (dd) System

Normally screened cables suffer from screen distortion when they are prepared for production. (If you've ever wired a plug or connector which uses a screened cable, you've done this yourself, cutting back and probably twisting the screening braid for termination). This distortion of the screen has a measurable impact, effectively changing the impedance and therefore the performance of the cable.

Our ‘dd’ configuration is based on a simplified version of the techniques we developed for our top-of-the-range Mavros and Asimi interconnects. Twin symmetrical drain wires (each attached to 180° segments of the plug) are inserted between a 100% copper/Mylar™ foil and screen. The unique dd system connects the screen effectively to the cable return/plug interface, meaning the cable can be terminated without distorting, twisting or mechanically stressing the precision-laid screen. The benefits are in maintaining a consistent low impedance load to the plug, and a total 360° screening against noise and signal loss caused by RFI (radio frequency interference).

Following on from our win in 2017 for the Element Superior, the Hyper DD Integra RCA wins France’s Premier award the Diapason D’OR 2019 in the ‘Cables & Accessories’ category.

Hi-Fi World — 5 Stars/Outstanding

"It’s not what the Atlas interconnects are adding to the music but more the fact that they are taking nothing away. Tonally they are neutral so no grain or smear is added to the replay chain."
