Analysis Plus Chocolate Oval Interconnect Cable - 1.5 Meter, RCA to RCA, Pair

Advanced Technology Hollow Oval In-Wall Interconnect

Analysis Plus Chocolate Oval is the company's premium in-wall (UL and CSA FT4) rated interconnect cable. It can be terminated with the new Analysis Plus non-locking RCA connector or an XLR connector.

Chocolate Oval is the company's first in-wall rated cable in a balanced design. Since it is a balanced design, it will have better common-mode noise rejection for an ultra low noise floor. For superb value in high end home theater, you need to give this cable a listen. It uses the same patented Hollow Oval oxygen-free copper conductor geometry as the company's critically acclaimed Oval 9 speaker cable, but in a smaller gauge AWG design.

Revolutionary Hollow Oval Design

Analysis Plus is uniquely qualified as an authority on speaker cable design. The Detroit-based company earned its reputation testing and analyzing cables for leading cable manufacturers whose names you'd recognize in a flash. After examining the best, Analysis Plus decided it could do even better by developing its own proprietary hollow-oval conductor design.

Why the unique conductor geometry? Mark Markel and Qinwei Sun, the chief engineers at Analysis Plus, determined that round cable used in conventional speaker cable designs has high levels of current bunching, skin effect phenomenon, and other frequency characteristics that degrade signal quality. Rectangular conductors were a little better, but these suffered high electric field values caused by sharp corners which can also cut into and injure the dielectric when the cable is flexed.

Unique Woven Pattern

After many computer simulations, Analysis Plus found that a hollow oval cable was the best design due to its minimal change in resistance with frequency, plus other benefits. The company chose a flexible, braided conductor rather than the conventional solid conductor, which is susceptible to kinks and deformations with resulting signal degradation. A unique woven pattern places every wire statistically as close to the return current as every other wire for evenly distributed high-current density and superior sound.
