Bringing Flagship Level Performance to Real World Systems
Designed to bring flagship level performance to real world systems, Cardas Clear Reflection Interconnect has excellent high frequency extension and speed but is still slightly forgiving. It is very neutral and dynamic with a pitch black background.
"Clear Reflection is a fantastic cable in its own right. Cardas is on to something with its blend of the company’s previous Golden Reference design and its current Clear technology. I was charmed by Clear Reflection’s fluid, organized, detailed, and generally musically satisfying qualities. I would not hesitate to recommend it to others," notes Kurt Midtskog in The Absolute Sound's 2016 Buyers Guide to Cables, Power Products, Accessories & Music.
Clear Reflection pays homage to the classic Golden Reference cable, blending the very best of the old with the very best of the new. Clear Reflection also introduces a new copper colored SRCA connector, which matches the black and copper cosmetics from Cardas Clear Reflection Speaker cable.
Matched Propagation Conductors
Clear Reflection Interconnect boasts a Matched Propagation Kevlar core and Grade 1, 99.9999% pure oxygen free copper conductors with SPN clear coat (Litz), gauge sizes scaled to Golden Ratio proportions.
Clear Reflection uses cross-field layer geometry, insulated in an extruded PFA jacket, in a suspended air core twisted pair design with anti-static LDPE air-tubes bound with carbon impregnated PTFE tape wrap. The outer layer has PTFE air-tubes scaled 1.618 times larger than the core tubes to suspend the double composite shields of tinned copper and magnet wire away from the signal conductors.
Finished in black ultra soft extruded TPR jacket, Cardas Clear Reflection Interconnect is terminated with Cardas SRCA-CU or CG XLR-CU. The gauge is 2x25.5 AWG with an outside diameter of 0.420”/10.66mm.
