Pulsar Ag 75-ohm SPDIF

About the Pulsar Ag 75-ohm SPDIF

The VH Audio Pulsar Ag is a state-of-the-art interconnect cable designed specifically for 75 ohm SPDIF digital connections and shielded analog interconnect applications. It features a single, unplated, high-purity 24 AWG solid OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) silver conductor, which has a single crystal structure free of grain boundaries. The conductor is annealed to a dead-soft state in an inert nitrogen atmosphere before applying VH Audio's proprietary AirLok™ dielectric, a foamed/cellular fluoropolymer with a dielectric constant less than 1.45, significantly lower than typical solid fluoropolymers. This results in a fast, coherent, and unsmeared signal transmission. The cable maintains a precise 75 ohm impedance, ideal for SPDIF digital signals, achieved through meticulous manufacturing that results in tight tolerances. It has a double-shielded design consisting of foil and a silver-plated OFHC copper braid for maximum RFI rejection and a low impedance ground path, minimizing ground loops. The outer jacket is a thin FEP insulation providing flexibility, durability, and excellent electrical characteristics. The cable is noted for rivaling much more expensive digital cables and is praised for its sound quality in high-end audio systems.
