Viard Audio Silver HD20 XLR interconnect cable

This Viard Audio Silver HD20 XLR symmetrical interconnect cable is equipped with the highest quality XLR links from the hexagonal manufacturer. All Viard Audio cables are carefully handmade in France.

VIARD AUDIO SILVER HD20 XLR: CHARACTERISTICS

This Silver HD20 XLR cable uses copper/silver positive and negative conductors, obtained by a proprietary process developed by Viard Audio and is the subject of a patent application. It consists in recrystallizing high-purity copper by submitting it to a specific firing. The obtained copper is called Cu-VHQ. It then receives silver electrolysis. The resulting fibres are insulated with a polyethylene sleeve.

The shielding is obtained by a silver braiding. The professional XLR connectors are specific. They receive gold plating and a PTFE (TEFLON) dielectric.

The outer sleeve is made of white silicon, specific to the Silver HD series. It ensures a perfect peripheral insulation of the interconnect cable and allows to get a good flexibility despite its important diameter.

The shielding sleeves are manufactured to high precision specifications in AU-4G in order to fit the 12 mm diameter of the Silver HD20 XLR.

VIARD AUDIO SILVER HD20 XLR: WIRING

The Viard Audio interconnect cable has a connection direction materialized by an aluminum ring, marked with a red dot.

It takes into account the design in floating mass of the cable, which uses a shield braid connected only on one side, so that no mass loops are obtained. In the case of a symmetrical cable, this is naturally given by the male/female connectors.
