SONICART “REFERENCE to GROUND”

Sonic Art REFERENCE Ground cables are made from our Silver Reference series conductors using our Variostrand and time aligned designs, the Ground cable uses a combination of our silver copper alloy conductors, insulated in pressure cast Teflon. We then add a heavy woven PE antistatic sheath to protect and damped the wire. CARDAS Silver Rhodium plated pure copper spades are fitted to both ends. We crimp the wires inside the spade then silver solder the wire/spade junction to ensure years of trouble free operation. Adhesive heatshrink is used at both ends to keep the ground wire firmly assembled.

• Why choose Silver? Because it offers excellent conductivity, and if the metallurgy is correct, a sweet and detailed sound.

• Why Silver & Copper? Pure Silver is soft, it requires traces of impure metals for strength and can sound bright and thin when combined with the most common mixer metals. Combine it with Hi purity copper and you have the best of both worlds.

• Why choose TEFLON? Dielectric quality is an important factor when designing cable. The lowest loss insulator available is VIRGIN PTFE (Pressure Cast TEFLON), Teflon unfortunately is also the most expensive, which you could surmise is why many manufacturers avoid using it. Our TEFLON is the highest MILSPEC grade available and exhibits the lowest signal loss of any insulator besides air.

• CARDAS Quad-Eutectic Silver Solder is used to seal the connection in our Silver plated Spades. If you attempt to solder silver with normal solders you get absorption of silver particles causing poor joint performance and degradation of signal. Silver solder is designed to suppress silver absorption from the surface of the silver wire leaving a joint that is pure and provides the best conductivity from solder possible.

NOTE: Where we use PE sheathing over our cables, it is purely for Anti Static properties and in no way is a structural part of the cable.

Have you ever noticed how other HI-END cable manufacturer’s have a range of much cheaper models, all slotted in under their most expensive ‘Flagship” cable?  We on the other hand produce one model of RCA and Speaker Cable, and one Reference Range, both with Hi-Tech engineering and materials. We keep our marketing and advertising costs low, allowing us to price our cables well below our competitors Flag Ship models, yet compete with them performance wise.

All Sonic Art cables are hand assembled in Melbourne AUSTRALIA to exacting standards.
