Atlas Equator Achromatic interconnect cable

The Atlas Equator Achromatic interconnect cable is the second cable from the Scottish manufacturer’s range.

ATLAS EQUATOR ACHROMATIC: CHARACTERISTICS

Like the manufacturer’s other models, the Equator Achromatic is equipped with new Achromatic RCA masking a rather complex technology. They allow to ensure constant impedance and low resistance. These RCA are completely non-magnetic. Their conductors are crimped and not welded like on most cables from the competition. The quality of these plugs is fantastic for an interconnect cable sold at this price.

The Atlas Equator Achromatic uses a conductor consisting of 80 99.9997% pure OFC copper strands. It is surrounded by a dual OFC copper protective screen providing maximum resistance against RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). Interference can increase noise level in a poorly shielded cable.

Polyethylene (PEF) is in charge of the Atlas Equator Achromatic interconnect cable insulation. This process can be found on audio cables more than twice the price.

Manufacture is free from all defects. All Atlas cables are handmade in Kilmarnock, Scotland.

ATLAS EQUATOR ACHROMATIC: TESTING AND LISTENING

The reproduction is very balanced and airy! We immediately notice a softer timbre than its competitors. But wait, it doesn’t mean that the Atlas Equator Achromatic is “dark”! Quite the contrary, it provides nice resolution and reasonable clarity.

The soundstage is a great success and is very plausible. This means that the soundstage is wide but not excessive like on some other more flattering products.

The frequency response is very wide and doesn’t show any limit in the spectrum ends.

The Atlas Equator Achromatic offers vibrant and dynamic playback, no matter what music style is reproduced. There’s also a stunningly accurate and high-quality mid-range.

The Equator Achromatic provides beautiful presence and organic character to vocals.

The Atlas Equator Achromatic interconnect cable is a really nice surprise and will delight music lovers.

A favourite!
