Golden Reference Speaker
|
| |
Golden Reference speaker is the latest evolutionary speaker cable design by George Cardas. It features Cardas patented "Golden Section", multi-gauge stranding in a symmetrical, 12 conductor, helical triad of quad-axial planetary arrays of golden ratio, constant Q conductors.
Cardas patented, "Constant-Q" construction places the smallest of the Golden Ratio strands at the center of the conductor to reduce stored energy and conductor resonance. Cable resonance is further reduced with controlled propagation, Crossfield construction, matching conductor and cable loop characteristics with carefully computed strand layering. Cross layered conductors reduce EMI and RFI to a new low. All conductors are individually coated to insulate and prevent oxidation.
Golden Reference is a perfectly neutral reference cable with unmatched transient purity. Golden Reference is perfectly symmetrical and non directional. Like all Cardas cable, Golden Reference is individually inspected, and hand terminated using Rhodium plated connectors and Cardas formulated Quad Eutectic solder, for a lifetime of listening pleasure.

Golden Presence Speaker |
| |
Golden Presence Speaker cables are designed and constructed using two pair of concentrically wound, Golden Section Stranded conductors which are terminated symmetrically. This four conductor cable is designed to bridge the performance of Neutral Reference and Golden Reference. Golden Presence Speaker cables are non directional. They use the same high quality dielectrics and copper found in our other Reference cables. Golden Presence Speaker cables have received high marks for neutrality, transparency, and that famous Cardas midrange.

Neutral Reference Speaker |
| |
Cardas Neutral Reference speaker is designed as a perfectly neutral reference cable. It sounds the same at any length, whether one or thirty feet, between any component, at any originating or terminating impedance. Neutral Reference is perfectly symmetrical and non-directional. It can be terminated either single or bi-wired.

Crosslink Speaker |
| |
Crosslink is our least expensive cable. It is the only Cardas cable sold in bulk, and it can be terminated by a Cardas dealer. It is very flexible and light weight. Multi-gauge, Golden Section, Constant Q conductors are used. Crosslink has flame retardant EEA and cotton for the dielectric, with a PVC jacket, making it CL 2 rated. Crosslink is great for home theater, in-wall, automotive and small home audio systems.
