19. Signature Series ~ AES/EBU Digital Cables (OCC Silver + Duelund)

Designed and handcrafted with 5N OCC silver cable, carefully fine-tuned to achieve highest sound quality and minimize signal transmission loss.

Audiolund AES/EBU Digital Cable ~ Signature Series

– Use various types and multiple layers of shielding materials for shielding to reduce noise and RFI/EMI interference
– With unique damping design, use various types of anti-vibration/damping materials to suppress vibration and isolation
– 1.0m standard length
– Standard: OEM Carbon Fiber Rhodium Plated XLR Plug
– Upgrade option: Monosaudio Pure Copper Rhodium Plated XLR Plug

The AES/EBU Digital Cable Signature series with new OCC 5N silver a better sound quality than Classic Series. The Signature Series AES/EBU Digital Cable has a sweet, delicate, powerful, fast dynamics sound and it also has a stronger tone, warmer with richer full body texture sound. Signature series use the OCC 5N silver solid core mixed with Duelund tinned copper wires, compared to the Duelund Tin-plated copper wires only used in the Classic Series. The Signature Series are designed for audiophiles who demand better sound quality.

We do not use a precision measurement equipment to measure, however, the Signature Series AES/EBU Digital Cable is tested and verified on a few different high-end systems (Transport/DAC), with no signal error, perform better and comparably with other famous branded AES/EBU 110 ohm cables and thus, it is confirmed meeting the 110 ohm specification.

My humble suggestion: Digital Cable AES/EBU Signature Series is a good balance for all Hi-Fi setup with excellent front end Silver digital sound characteristic. Disclaimer : All the Hi-Fi setup different in term of Equipment/Speaker/Room/Accessories etc. so, you may get different results in different setup. The above suggestion is only for your reading reference only.

XLR Plugs Orientation

Audiolund cables are quite thick and stiff, although it could be bend easily, but could be hard to “twist” if the orientation of the plugs is not aligned properly. The standard orientation for XLR plug is as above, however, it is also depending on how you place your equipment, Top to Down, Left to Right or Right to Left ?
Please provide a picture of your equipment, looking from the back, to show the XLR connectors.

Cable Run-In: Audiolund cables are mostly multi-core design with various combinations of wires. Thus, all Audiolund cables will require long time to run-in.  OCC Silver wires are thick solid core wires, will take even longer time to burn-in than Duelund tinned copper multi-strands of parallel thin core wires. The general guideline for run-in time, estimated 100 – 200 hours.
