Viard Audio Platinium HD RCA interconnect cable

The Viard Platinum HD RCA is the most ambitious analogue interconnect cable from the brand.

This high-end interconnect cable is made from military, medical, and aerospace grade materials.

Viard Platinum HD RCA: Technology

The difference from the Silver HD range lies in the single-strand conductors, which are Solid Core type here. They are made of Cu-VHQ pure copper, insulated against external interference thanks to a double shield created specifically for the Platinum line. This double shield features high-density coverage braiding combining copper and silver. The goal is to guarantee the most flawless signal transmission without adding or removing anything. The Viard Platinium HD RCA comes equipped with carbon and chrome-plated RCA connectors featuring 24k gold contacts. The cable is jacketed in a highly flexible white woven silicone outer sheath, fitted with a machined AU-4G aluminium damping ring at one end.

Viard Platinum HD RCA: Sound Performance

The Viard Audio Platinum HD RCA displays tremendous transparency. It reproduces the numerous micro-details present in the music without sounding overly analytical. Tonal balance is remarkably neutral and realistic, without highlighting one part of the spectrum at the expense of another. Timbres remain natural, with great coherence and richness.

It features the brand's signature rich and embodied midrange. Vocals and acoustic instruments possess surprising substance and texture.

The treble is refined, delicate, and airy, without any harshness, bringing out the best in demanding recordings.

The bass is very fast and offers remarkable clarity, prioritizing definition and articulation.

The soundstage is one of the strong points of the Platinium HD RCA. Stable and wide, it subtly expands the space behind the Hi-Fi speakers while delivering exceptional imaging of performers.

Furthermore, while offering a fluid and nuanced performance, dynamic attacks are sharp yet free from harshness, making for a natural, fatigue-free listening experience over time.

A true favourite!
