Active Cable System

After two years of development, Aural Thrills Audio is excited to introduce our active cable system. This revolutionary technology expands the possibilities of any system. Unlike common cables, ACS allows the interconnect to act like a balanced (XLR) cable. Purity, huge dimension, and great detail are the hallmarks of this design. We are so sure that you will love this cable that we are willing to provide a 60 day trial period. This auction is a limited time introductory offer so bid now. Here is how ACS works.

 

 

 

As you can see the signal lines are connected to the shield by a pair of specifically manufactured resistors. What is created is a pseudo balanced interconnect, as the shield is effectively neutral relative to both conductors. Relative to the equipment ground, the shield sees half the signal voltage swing. Einstein would ask, what if the wires do not know that ground is ground? The results are stunning! This creates a true actively shielded cable just like Synergistic Reasearch or Audioquest. The sound is holographic with the speakers disappearing and a gigantic soundstage is created. Only an active cable can do this.

 For years I have wanted to get the Brass out of my cables. Brass is a terrible conductor and adds a real dullness to the sound. Silver is the best conductor followed by Copper and then Gold. Brass is way further down the list. The reason that RCA connectors are made of Brass is ease of manufacture as well as malleability. Conductive ability is not on the list of positives for this type of construction. Finally, I have designed what I feel is the finest connector on the market.. PERIOD. It uses a solid, pure Teflon base that has been machined to accept a center pin and ground conductor. Teflon is one of the most inert substances on the planet. The Teflon plug surrounds the RCA connections on your equipment as well as the cable wires to insure a quiet, interference free sound. Getting rid of the Brass allows the use of super conductor metals which insure the pristine delivery of your sonic pleasures. Why make a cable that is painstakingly designed to deliver all information and then plug up both ends with a poor conducting Brass connectors? Why use 99.999% purity wires and then use Brass in the circuit? Brass is really just copper with impurities in it. There is more to a good cable than the metallurgy of the wire being used. This auction is for the Copper Version.

The Aural Thrills 300B tube amplifier is everything that it is advertised to be. The soundstage is huge and it has awesome bass and detail without being bright. It just plain sounds like music. Tom is a great guy to work with.
