Ag

Shine On With Silver

Ag is our new silver cable.  We start with our high-purity copper cable and add a 25 micron thick coating of 99% pure silver.  The wire is coated in a 7 micron enamel plating to keep it isolated with minimum rigidity and thickness. 

A polyester jacket with matching braided polyester jacket covers the wire.  And we use the same machined aluminum metal shells as our base Cu cables (but with an elegant silver ring to indicate it's nature) and molded ABS tension slider.

The result is a slight elevation in the top end, a bit of a brighter sound.  All with great reliability and comfort.
