Audio Cables
Today’s movies and music recordings contain more information than ever before, bringing higher resolution, extended frequency response and wider dynamic range to your home system—along with the potential to listen in stunning surround sound . But they can’t do that without the advanced interconnect cables that have the ability to transfer these complex signals. Poorly constructed cables made of inferior materials are simply incapable of transferring all the signals that better components deliver, effectively giving you less than they have to offer. And if you’re not already plugged into all six channels, you’re missing up to two-thirds of what you could be hearing in all-encompassing surround sound.
Any cable design is only as good as the manufacturing process that
 produced it. Cable design can be optimized and the best materials in the world can be selected, but if the design cannot be reliably produced, the effort is for naught. Graytronix Systems Corporation is dedicated to ensuring high precision cable fabrication.
When considering the purchase of a new cable, think about the stability and accuracy of the manufacturing process. How concentric is the conductor relative to its insulation? If a product consists of many tubes or conductors, how accurate is the spacing between the tubes or conductors? How many twists or braids are there per meter? How much variation exists between each twist or braid of the conductor? What will happen when I bend the cable? How well controlled is the diameter of the conductor? These are all valid questions to be asking a cable company. In the case of loose conductors within a tube, was the design intent to have both conductors as close together as possible or as far apart as possible within the tubes? Both conditions are possible if the conductor is not fixed. How will the different positions affect the sound? Ask questions and do not accept misdirects for answers.
