Cardas Clear Beyond X2 Dual Phono Cable



Pin It

Clear Beyond Dual Phono has been a “secret menu item” for a while. We were asked to prepare a pair of Clear Beyond Interconnects for use with a 5-pin DIN tonearm in an extreme analog system being shown at the Munich High End Show. Then word spread, and those in the know fell in love with it.

Now Clear Beyond Dual Phono has escaped into the marketplace. A single run of Clear Beyond Interconnect, with multiple shields, and eight 26.5 AWG Matched Propagation Conductors, is a top performing phono cable. Some vinyl playback systems, however, benefit from a dual run of interconnects. That’s not a problem when your turntable has RCA outputs. But if your tonearm has a DIN connector, you’re typically limited to a consolidated phono cable. Clear Beyond Dual Phono solves that problem elegantly, using our classic phono box to join the cables before they come together at the DIN.

Design/Construction
Conductors: Matched Propagation Kevlar core, ultra fine Grade 1, 99.9999% pure OFHC copper with SPN clear coat (Litz), gauge sizes scaled to Golden Ratio proportions and range from 47 AWG to 39 AWG. Cross-field layer geometry, insulated in ultra thin extruded PTFE jacket.
Geometry: Star-Quad 4 conductors with anti-static LDPE air-tubes bound with carbon impregnated PTFE tape wrap. Outer layer uses PTFE air-tubes scaled 1.618 times larger than the core tubes to suspend the composite shield of tinned copper and magnet wire away from the signal carrying conductors. Finished in an ultra soft ex- truded TPR jacket. Gauge: 8x26.5 AWG Outside Diameter: 0.511”/13mm

Termination Options:

S-DIN, R-DIN, CG XLR & SRCA
