3-Step Process: Minimise metal

Our studies of destructive cable distortion lead us to focus on the detrimental effects of capacitance.

Capacitance is created through conductive materials like metal running in parallel together. This becomes a problem as some dielectric has to exist between the metal surfaces.

The dielectric absorbs and re-releases energy in either a non-linear or time delayed fashion. This can then be clearly heard as distortion.

Large metal plugs and large conductors create greater capacitances which in turn creates greater distortion.

Subjectively, reducing the amount of metal in components will give cleaner and more detailed bass as well as an increase in the magnitude of bass notes. More clarity and detail will emerge in the treble range.

Slinkylinks ultra-thin conductors reduce capacitive effects. Our testing of pure silver extrusions concluded the thinner the wire the better the sound. With each successively thinner extrusion the sound improved more within the audible frequencies. Our silver is the thinnest we can have extruded that still gives a practical strength to the completed cable. Again the closest thing to no cable proved to be the best cable.

0.25mm 99.9999% pure silver conductors are optimal for transporting and delivering audio signals.

Eichmann Bullet Plugs have been selected for their sonic superiority and minimal metal content. They combine brilliantly with our proprietary cable design and complete an elite product.
