The 8N Difference

At the heart of The Caprice are our RSC^® SA-OF8N^® copper conductors. We don’t just stop at high quality; we use 99.999999% pure copper—hand-polished to ensure a flawless signal path. This extreme level of purity eliminates graininess and distortion, allowing the true character of your music to shine through.

Advanced Geometry & Construction

The Caprice features a sophisticated internal architecture designed to manage capacitance and interference:

Aero-Tube^™ Design: Multiple Polyethylene tubes are grouped together, with positive and negative conductors helixed around a central tube. This geometry creates a stable, air-dielectric environment.
Natural Fiber Spacers: We utilize natural fibers to maintain the integrity of the cable’s structure while minimizing dielectric involvement.
Torque-Lock^™ RCA or XLR: Choose between our proprietary Torque-Lock^™ RCA connectors for a rock-solid mechanical connection or professional-grade XLR terminations.

The Sonic Profile

The Caprice is “revealing” in the best sense of the word. With a low capacitance of 14 pF per foot, it provides:

Extreme High-Frequency Extension: Hear the shimmer of a cymbal and the air of a live recording without harshness.
Rich Mid-Range & Full Bass: A balanced, “weighty” sound that brings vocals to life and provides a solid foundational low-end.
Fine Detail Resolution: Uncover subtle nuances in your favorite recordings that you may have never noticed before.
