INTERCONNECTS<br />

ATLAS NAVIGATOR<br />

Oxygen-free continuous<br />

cast (OCC) cable: each<br />

strand is a single copper<br />

crystal. Two internal<br />

conductors, plus double<br />

shielding. The double shielding is copper mylar plus close-lapped<br />

99.997% pure OCC copper multi-stranded screen providing 100%<br />

RFI protection. This premium “All-Cu” version (shown here) uses<br />

solid copper connectors that are also continuous cast. The copper<br />

is then silver-plated and double-shielded. We use two in our<br />

reference systems.<br />

ORDER: ANA-1 All-Cu, 1m, $405, ANA-2 All-Cu, 2m, $495<br />

ORDER: ANAB-1 All-Cu balanced, single crystal XLR, 1m, $675<br />

ATLAS QUESTOR<br />

This could be the world’s lowest-cost<br />

interconnect with single-crystal copper. It has<br />

the same connectors as the Equator (below),<br />

and we thought it sounded like a much more<br />

expensive cable. However it is discontinued,<br />

and we have only the 2 m length left.<br />

ORDER: AQ-2, 2 m pair Atlas Questor, $180<br />

ATLAS EQUATOR<br />

Perhaps the best $150<br />

interconnect cable you could<br />

buy. Only it costs just $90. <strong>And</strong><br />

yes, that’s in Canadian funds.<br />

Other lengths on order.<br />

ORDER: AE-1, 1 m pair Atlas Equator, $90<br />

ORDER: AE-2, 2 m pair Atlas Equator, $125<br />

ATLAS QUADSTAR<br />

<strong>Terrific</strong> in our blind test.<br />

With Eichmann Bullet plugs,<br />

or balanced with Neutrik<br />

XLR's. Silver solder included with kit.<br />

ORDER: AQS-1 pair Quadstar kit, 1m $124.95<br />

ORDER: AQS-1A pair Quadstar assembled, 1m $199.95<br />

ORDER: AQS-X pair Quadstar balanced kit, 1m $95.95<br />

ORDER: AQS-XA pair Quadstar balanced, assembled, 1m $169.95<br />

PRISMAL DUAL INTERCONNECT<br />

SORRY, SOLD OUT<br />

This Swiss-made cable has especially solid connectors. Teflon<br />

dielectric, oxygen-free copper. Toss your “free” interconnects!<br />

ORDER: PD-1, 1 metre pair Prisma Dual Interconnect, $34.95<br />

MAVROS INTERCONNECTS<br />

Truly terrific, a pair of these connects our phono preamp to the<br />

preamp of our Omega system<br />

ORDER: AMI-1, 1 m Mavros interconnect pair, $1195<br />

ORDER: AMI-2, 2 m Mavros interconnect pair, $1895<br />

SPEAKER CABLES<br />

ATLAS MAVROS CABLES<br />

We’ve adopted them for our Alpha system, which sounds better<br />

than ever before. This is a four-wire monocrystal cable with<br />

porous Teflon dielectric. We are not recommending them with<br />

standard bananas or spaces, but we offer them either with ETI<br />

Bayonet Bananas, at no extra cost, or WBT nextgen..<br />

ORDER: AMBCu-3, 3 m pair, Bayonet bananas, $2150<br />

ORDER: AMBCu-5, 5 m pair, Bayonet bananas, $3850<br />

ORDER: AMSCu-3, 3 m pair, WBT nextgen bananas, $2390<br />

ORDER: AMSCu-5, 5 m pair, WBT nextgen bananas, $4090<br />

ATLAS HYPER SPEAKER CABLES<br />

A big winner in one of UHF’s blind tests of speaker cables is<br />

Hyper 2, an oxygen free stranded wire in Teflon dielectric. Plus<br />

connectors (we recommend Eichmann Bayonet Bananas, $99.95/<br />

set, two sets needed for AH2, three for biwire).<br />

ORDER: AH2, Hyper 2 cable, $29.95/metre<br />

ORDER: AHB, Hyper Biwire cable, $49.95/metre<br />

ATLAS ICHOR SPEAKER CABLE<br />

Continuous-cast single-crystal cable, ready for biwiring. It costs<br />

just $235 per meter of double cable (a 2 m pair has 4 meters of<br />

wire). We suggest adding the Eichmann Bayonet bananas, $99.95<br />

per set of 4, or Furutech connectors, $70 a set of 4..<br />

SINGLE CRYSTAL JUMPERS<br />

Not biwiring? Dump the free jumpers<br />

that came with your speakers. Atlas<br />

jumpers are made from single-crystal<br />

copper, gold-plated spades.<br />

ORDER: ACJ, four single crystal<br />

jumpers, $99.95<br />

DIGITAL CABLES<br />

ATLAS COMPASS DIGITAL<br />

Excellent performance at an affordable price. Single crystal pure<br />

copper. The 1.5m version sounds way better than a 1m.<br />

ORDER: ACD-1.5 digital cable, 1.5m, $160<br />

ATLAS OPUS DIGITAL<br />

We dumped our reference cable for this one! <strong>And</strong> to be at its very<br />

best, it has to be this length.<br />

ORDER: AOD-1.5 digital cable, 1.5m, $399<br />

TOSLINK OPTICAL DIGITAL<br />

The best we’ve found yet,<br />

though we’re still looking.<br />

Add the mini-TOSLINK<br />

adapter for Airport Express or computers with hybrid jacks.<br />

ORDER: TD-1 TOSLINK cable, 1m length $22.95<br />

ORDER: TMT mini-TOSLINK adapter, $3.95<br />

CONNECTORS<br />

EICHMANN BAYONET BANANAS<br />

The Eichmann Bayonet Banana uses<br />

a minimum of metal, and tellurium<br />

copper at that, but clicks tightly into<br />

any binding post with spring action.<br />

For soldering or crimping, or both.<br />

ORDER: EBB kit 4 bayonet bananas,<br />

$99.95<br />

EICHMANN BULLET PLUGS<br />

The first phono plug to maintain the impedance of<br />

the cable by using metal only as an extension<br />

of the wire. Hollow tube centre<br />

pin, tiny spring for ground. Two<br />

contacts for soldering, two-screw<br />

strain relief. Gold over copper. Got<br />

silver cable? Get the unique Silver Bullets!<br />

ORDER: EBP kit 4 Bullet Plugs, $77.95<br />

ORDER: EBPA kit 4 Silver Bullets, $154.95<br />

EICHMANN CABLE PODS<br />

Minimum metal, gold over tellurium<br />

copper. Unique clamp system: the back<br />

button turns but the clamp doesn’t.<br />

Solder to it, or plug an Eichmann<br />

banana into it, even from inside!<br />

ORDER: ECP, set of four posts, $119.95<br />

CONNECTOR TREATMENT<br />

DeOxit (formerly ProGold)<br />

cleans connections and<br />

promotes conductivity. Small<br />

wipes for cleaning accessible<br />

contacts, or a squirt bottle for connections you can’t reach.<br />

ORDER: PGW box 25 DeOxit wipes, $35<br />

ORDER: PGS, can DeOxit fluid, $35<br />

ORDER: PGB, both when ordered at the same time, $56<br />

WBT makes banana plugs and spades for speaker cables, all of<br />

which lock tightly into any post. All use crimping technology.<br />

These nextgen connectors are far superior to previous versions<br />

ORDER: WBT-0610 Kit 4 angled nextgen bananas, $130<br />

ORDER: WBT-0610Ag Kit 4 nextgen silver bananas, $290<br />

ORDER: WBT-0681 Kit 4 nextgen spades, $130<br />
