Athena Silver Headphone Cable
QUALITY YOU CAN TRUST
Most stock headphone cables are made of poor, ultra-thin conductors that work as a bottleneck for sound. Poor geometries, no shielding, rubber jackets, and a whole host of other issues in OEM cables can limit the performance of the headphone driver in terms of clarity and definition.
Athena Silver Cables are handcrafted from quality materials in Headgear Audio. All of our cables are created with ultra-pure, single-crystal silver and copper strands and engineered to provide the cleanest, most musical presentation. Our wire is void of impurities and crystalline boundaries, leaving nothing between you and your music.
ATHENA SILVER HEADPHONE UPGRADE CABLE SOUND FEATURES
The Bass frequency is steady and powerful, the high frequency delicate and natural, the detail analysis is reach, the sound is sweater, purer and more transparent. The clarity, transparency and true sense of sound field are quite outstanding, bringing the immersive LIVE experience.
COMPATIBLE HEADPHONES
It is a great cable for a wide variety of music genres.
If you are using a very warm tube amp and a forward headphone, the Athena Silver Cable is also a good choice to keep the sound signature the same. The Athena Silver Cable is also the most flexible of the full-size headphone cables and makes a good choice for headphones that use a single entry connection point like many of the Hifiman, Sennheiser, Audeze headphones.
CABLE DESIGN
The Athena Silver Headphone Cable is hand braided and meticulously crafted at Headgear Audio. It is a silver conductor based cable and it uses 8 OCC Stranded Silver Plated 36AWG Teflon insulated conductors.
It is a great candidate for Darker Sounding headphones or headphones that have a bloated bottom end. For example, headphones such as the Sennheiser HD650 (a darker/warmer sounding can) or headphones like the Hifiman HE-500 and the Audeze LCD-2 & LCD3, which are planar magnetic driver headphones and warmer sounding headphones. The Athena Silver will add detail and clarity to the top end and provide a cleaner more transparent sound. With closed headphones such as the Denon AH-D7000 & AH-D5000 the Athena Silver will tighten up the bottom end and control the bass better.
These cables are Carefully hand braided and consists of 8 cores of soft crystal PVC insulation litz silver plated wire. Soldered with Cardas ultra pure, Quad Eutectic solder for the perfect joining of connector to conductor.
