About the Optimism Lotus ST Fiber Optic

The Aural Symphonics Optimism Lotus ST Fiber Optic cable is a premium glass optical cable designed specifically for high-fidelity digital audio transmission, particularly favored by EMM Labs equipment users. It is a 2-meter digital interconnect that uses ST/ST fiber connectors and is recognized for delivering a substantial upgrade over standard stock cables. The cable enhances low-level detail, resolution, and dynamic range without metallic etching or ringing, providing a natural, warm, and liquid sound especially on vocals. It improves soundstage width and instrument placement, with clearer articulation of attacks and decays, and a more realistic and emotive vocal presentation. The bass is more defined and dynamic, with improved articulation and decay, while the overall presentation gains in sensuousness and forward motion. The cable requires proper use of supplied optical gel and correct directionality for optimal performance. It is considered expensive but a no-brainer upgrade for those seeking to narrow the gap between analog and digital sound quality.
