Cardas Audio, Ltd. Neutral Reference Digital/Video

Description
Cardas Neutral Reference is designed as a perfectly neutral reference cable. It sounds the same at any length, whether one or 100 feet, between any digital or video components. Neutral Reference is perfectly symmetrical and non-directional. Neutral Reference is an excellent digital transmission cable for both AES/EBU and SPDIF applications. It is currently being used for that purpose by Bernie Grundman, one of the largest mastering houses in Los Angeles. Neutral Reference is designed as a direct transfer circuit rather than a transmission line. Rather than design for a full wave characteristic impedance which would be more appropriate for a long cable and unstable in short lengths where only a variable percentage of the wavelength is included, we have optimized the cable for constant transfer impedance. This cable will extend originating impedance within +/- .5 ohm from 50 to 150 ohms to 30 ft. of cable.
