The One XL

Name: The One XL w/HFX Ground Station
Brand: TARA Labs

with HFX Ground Station

The One XL pairs RSC^® SA-OF8N^® mono-crystal conductors with a dielectric of air, Teflon and vacuum-filled glass spheres, at 12 pF.

The included HFX Floating Ground Station isolates the shield from the signal path, for an exceptionally low noise floor and a wide, dimensional sound.

Termination Options: XLR or RCA (“Torque-Lock”)
Conductor Material: SA-OF8N (99.999999% Pure Copper)
Conductor Type: RSC (Rectangular Solid Core) Mono-crystal
Grounding System: HFX Floating Ground Station

The Technology of Silence

At the heart of the One XL is the HFX Floating Ground Station. This patented system completely isolates the cable’s shield from the signal path, eliminating interference and providing an exceptionally low noise floor.

Further enhancing this performance is our unique dielectric construction. By utilizing vacuum-filled microscopic glass spheres alongside air and Teflon, we have significantly lowered dielectric absorption. The result? A cable with a remarkably low capacitance of 12 pF, ensuring your signal remains pure, fast, and uncolored.

Precision Engineering

SA-OF8N Copper: Crafted with 99.999999% pure, oxygen-free mono-crystal copper. This “Super Annealed” conductor provides an unobstructed path for your music.
Rectangular Solid Core (RSC): Our frequency-tuned RSC conductors prevent the “skin effect” found in round wires, ensuring linear frequency response across the entire spectrum.
Advanced Shielding: An anti-corrosion silver shield provides long-term durability and protection against RFI/EMI without degrading the signal.

Sonic Character

The One XL doesn’t just transport sound; it reveals it. Expect a wide-open soundstage filled with accurate spatial cues and high-frequency extension that never feels forced. The midrange is lush and full-bodied, supported by a bass response that is both tight and authoritatively powerful. It is an extremely musical cable that brings a three-dimensional realism to your favorite recordings.
