Experts have already been impressed by the LS-1204 AIR (copper). This is how AUDIO summed it up: "A stroke of genius that shows competitors how it should be done – in terms of sound, too. This was wonderfully dynamic, with the most fabulous drive reaching the speaker cones. Admittedly, the price is not low, but the acoustic yield is truly world class. What's more, everything was made by hand. You can feel the love for the product." With the LS-1205 AIR Pure Silver, the currently most filigree model in AIR technology is now also available as a pure silver cable. The structure, dimensions and conductor arrangement of this cable correspond to the copper version of the LS-1205 AIR. As with the LS-4005 AIR Pure Silver and LS-2405 AIR Pure Silver, the conductors have been optimized. Pure silver is used as the conductor material for the LS-1205 AIR Pure Silver too. Under realistic conditions, silver is currently the most conductive material. At 61.35 S/m (Siemens pro Meter), its conductivity is approximately six percent superior to that of copper. The electrons move 1.5 times faster than in a copper conductor! Click here and discover the exciting details

AIR technology is a milestone in our more than 46-year company history and is causing a sensation in the hi-fi industry worldwide. The approach itself sounds relatively banal: The physically induced losses must be minimized in order to transmit the original music signal as authentically and neutrally as possible. And, thanks to the AIR technology, loss-free transmission is closer than ever before. It leads to a significantly better reproduction, which is not only subjectively audible, but also objectively measurable. The insulation (or dielectric) of the AIR cables is practically perfect thanks to the air insulation, and hardly affects the sound at all. The structure, dimensions and arrangement of the conductors are optimized, and approach the limits of what is physically possible. Adding another highlight to this perfect audiophile foundation, we then focused on the conductor material of the cables. Copper in the appropriate purity is already a very good conductor. A superconductor, where electrical resistance is zero, would be perfect, of course. Unfortunately, superconducting materials require temperatures of at least -70 degrees. Under realistic operating conditions, the best conducting material we have is currently silver. At 61.35 S/m (Siemens pro Meter), its conductivity is approximately six percent superior to that of copper. However, this precious metal is about 100 times more expensive. Below you can learn more about the outstanding technical features of this cable, the innovations in the 5th generation and the physical principles used in the AIR technology.

High-end loudspeakers need power – and a lot of it, quickly and precisely. For the perfect sound the power must correspond one hundred percent with the analog image of the original sound source, be it an A cappella soloist or a stomping rock concert. A few technical tricks that help to skillfully circumvent physical influences are required to deliver this power to the loudspeaker right on time and holistically. Line resistance and line inductance play an important role with speaker cables. The powerful Referenz LS-8005 AIR has impressive 32 Cross Link Super Speed waveguides with an enormous total cross-section of 38 mm². The cross-section alone, however, does not make a good cable. The smart nesting of the conductors almost completely eliminates magnetic fields, paving the way for the finest sound facets and powerful pressure in equal measure. Good sound needs air! In developing our Air technology, we have proven that an audio cable’s insulation plays a key role and has a significant influence on the sound. This is due to dielectric losses and the electrostatic properties of the insulating materials, which burden the hi-fi system like heavy luggage and make it sluggish. By “omitting” this strain we then help the entire hi-fi chain to achieve top performance. We do this with special clips that guide the signal conductors through the cable in a row and freely suspended. To get closer to the pinnacle of audiophile perfection, we also carefully examined the conductor material. Copper in the right purity is itself already an excellent conductor, but a superconductor with no ohmic resistance to the current would be simply perfect. The material’s superconducting properties, however, require extremely low temperatures of at least -70 degrees. Under realistic conditions, silver is currently the most conductive material. With a conductivity of 61.35 S/m (siemens per meter), it outperforms copper by around six percent. Many manufacturers only use silver-plated conductors, which over time can seem, “bright”, “metallic” and even, “annoying”. We, on the other hand, use pure silver, which has a far more neutral sound. Due to the higher drift speed of the electrons, our pure silver cable delivers a more penetrating and sumptuous sound performance, across all frequency ranges. On the other hand of course, silver is about one hundred times more expensive than copper. Grounding option: The number of cell phones, WiFi routers, Bluetooth devices, PV systems and charging stations etc., is constantly increasing. This also increases the potential for electromagnetic interferences, which can affect hi-fi and high-end systems. Cables act like antennae and can transfer the interferences to the devices, where they overlay the audio signal in sensitive circuit areas, resulting in a “washed out” sound. Effective shielding and grounding concepts are crucial to protect the sound. The grounding cable of a record player is a very well-known example of this. The LS- 8005 AIR is equipped with a grounding option, which, depending on the configuration, can be connected to the amplifier’s earth, the protective conductor or earth or a grounding box, to divert disturbances.

To achieve the best possible sound, it is crucial that the amplifier has a firm grip on the speakers. In addition to activating the membranes to make them vibrate, it must also be able to dampen them effectively. One measure of this is the amplifier’s damping factor. The speakers’ actual damping factor is significantly influenced by the quality of the speaker cables and connecting bridges of the bi-wiring terminals. The original bridges often consist of simple stamped sheet metal parts of inferior quality. The new in-akustik AIR High End Bi-Wire Jumpers are based on the technologies, findings and materials of the renowned LS-1205 AIR, LS-2405 AIR and LS-4005 AIR speaker cables. If bi-wiring is not an option, these high-end bi-wire jumpers offer an excellent alternative to the often inferior metal bridges on the speaker terminals. They ensure an even and controlled signal distribution, which is perfectly harmonized with the respective speaker cable.

BFA & Spade 360° (LS-4005 AIR & LS-2405 AIR): Movement across three axes make the 360-degree BFA and spade connectors really easy to connect and disconnect. Difficult set-up operations that put a strain on both cables and devices are a thing of the past. The connectors can easily be attached to terminals from a wide range of manufacturers. No awkward bending is necessary, avoiding damage to surfaces and potential contact resistance. Set-up is fast and problem-free. The attractively designed connectors are the perfect complement to the outstanding sound. The new connectors are used with the LS-4005 and the LS-2405. Both connector versions as well as the Basic version for the LS-1205 are pressure-grouted with a force of 1.5 tonnes.

This is exactly where our NF-4005 AIR Pure Silver comes in: The AIR helix design and the cable’s dimensions create even more space and air between the signal conductors. The cable thus forms a wide audiophile corridor and rolls out the red carpet, so to speak, for every sound detail.

New RCA SL connectors (SolderLess): Soldering is a proven and established connection technology, but it is not without its weaknesses. These include the solder used in the signal path, which reduces the conductivity, and the generation of thermal voltages, even if it is kept to a minimum. With our recently developed SL (SolderLess) RCA connector, the connections from the signal conductor to the contact element are pressed with the highest precision and with a pressure of 1.5 tonnes. A further seemingly tiny improvement that brings great rewards in terms of audio performance. Click here and discover the exciting details

This can be annoying as the position of the XLR sockets in devices varies. In order for the cable to fit, it must sometimes be twisted by force. This puts a strain on cables, plugs and device sockets and sometimes simply looks a mess. The new XLR 180° plugs developed in-house can be rotated by +/- 45 degrees, i.e., up to a total of +/- 90 degrees from connector to connector. The finishing touch for perfect cabling.

Cable capacitance plays a decisive role, especially for audio cable connections between individual devices. As the signal sources are very weak and react sensitively to high cable capacitance, audio cables are virtually predestined for air insulation using air helix technology.

The good old record sounds more vibrant than ever. The demand is astonishing, even for experts. The figures for records sold are increasing just as surprisingly as the number of record players. It’s a real boom. But how to improve the sound? One way is to use a new, better cable between the tonearm and the phono amplifier. The Phono-1205 AIR is a cable created to deliver top sound. What sets it apart is an absolutely unique air insulation, called the Air Helix. We have developed a special clip for this technology. It separates the two cable bundles, keeps them apart, and virtually embeds them in air. Using a large number of these clips, it is possible to route earth and signal extremely stably over longer distances. Why the effort? With this approach it is possible to pass on the sensitive signals without slowing them down - the result is fast and high-resolution sound. The Super Speed waveguides are threaded by hand and the clips are fitted with great care in the company's own factory. After this, the resulting Air Helix is also shielded and fitted with the PE network jacket by hand. Finally, the rhodium-plated connectors are fitted and cable functionality is tested. Because it's all about the most important, smallest signals: There is nowhere in the audio world where smaller currents flow that need to be passed on perfectly. The signal level of an MM or MC system is extremely sensitive, at just a few thousandths of a volt. In addition to this, the systems have an inductive character. In combination with the cable capacitance, they form what is known as an oscillating circuit, which favors specific frequencies. If these frequencies are unfavorable due to excessively high capacitance, this has a major effect on the harmony of the sound. Extremely low capacitance and dielectric losses are just two advantages of the Referenz Phono -1205 AIR. They form the basis for unadulterated enjoyment of your vinyl jewels. The sound of good records can hardly be resolved in a finer way than this. Click here and discover the exciting details

Because it's all about the most important, smallest signals: There is nowhere in the audio world where smaller currents flow that need to be passed on perfectly. The signal level of an MM or MC system is extremely sensitive, at just a few thousandths of a volt. In addition to this, the systems have an inductive character. In combination with the cable capacitance, they form what is known as an oscillating circuit, which favors specific frequencies. If these frequencies are unfavorable due to excessively high capacitance, this has a major effect on the harmony of the sound. Extremely low capacitance and dielectric losses are just two advantages of the Referenz Phono -2405 AIR. They form the basis for unadulterated enjoyment of your vinyl jewels. The sound of good records can hardly be resolved in a finer way than this. Click here and discover the exciting details

The good old record sounds more vibrant than ever. The demand is astonishing, even for experts. The figures for records sold are increasing just as surprisingly as the number of record players. It’s a real boom. But how to improve the sound? One way is to use a new, better cable between the tonearm and the phono amplifier. The Phono-2405 AIR is a cable created to deliver top sound. What sets it apart is an absolutely unique air insulation, called the Air Helix. We have developed a special clip for this technology. It separates the two cable bundles, keeps them apart, and virtually embeds them in air. Using a large number of these clips, it is possible to route earth and signal extremely stably over longer distances. Why the effort? With this approach it is possible to pass on the sensitive signals without slowing them down - the result is fast and high-resolution sound. The Super Speed waveguides are threaded by hand and the clips are fitted with great care in the company's own factory.

With the Digital-2405 AIR Pure Silver, the digital member of the AIR family is now also available as a pure silver cable. The dimensions, structure and arrangement of the conductors correspond to the respective copper versions. As with the LS-4005 AIR Pure Silver, LS-2405 AIR Pure Silver and LS-1205 Pure Silver, the signal conductors have been optimized. AIR technology is a milestone in our more than 40-year company history and is causing a sensation in the hi-fi industry worldwide. The approach itself sounds relatively banal: The physically induced losses must be minimized in order to transmit the original music signal as authentically and neutrally as possible. And, thanks to the AIR technology, loss-free transmission is closer than ever before. It leads to significantly better sound reproduction, which is not only subjectively audible but also objectively measurable. The insulation (or dielectric) of the AIR cables is practically perfect thanks to the air insulation, and hardly affects the sound at all. The structure, dimensions and arrangement of the conductors are optimized, and approach the limits of what is physically possible. Adding another highlight to this perfect audiophile foundation, we then focused on the conductor material of the cables. Copper in the appropriate purity is already a very good conductor. A superconductor, where electrical resistance is zero, would be perfect, of course. Unfortunately, superconducting materials require temperatures of at least -70 degrees. Under realistic operating conditions, the best conducting material we have is currently silver. At 61.35 S/m (Siemens pro Meter), its conductivity is approximately six percent superior to that of copper. However, this precious metal is about 100 times more expensive.

Die Air-Helix-Konstruktion des Referenz USB-2405 AIR ist absolut einzigartig. Um eine nahezu perfekte Luftisolation zu erreichen, haben wir einen speziellen Clip entwickelt. Im Innern des Kabels bildet eine Vielzahl dieser Clips ein tragendes Gerüst, welches die Signalleiter helixförmig frei in der Luft hält und in definiertem Abstand durch die hochdichte Abschirmung führt. Die Flexibilität dieser Konstruktion wird durch zwei Stege erreicht, die nicht nur die Clips zusammenhalten, sondern sie auch auf dem exakten Abstand zueinander fixieren. Im eigentlichen Sinne ist „Digital“ nur in der Mathematik in Form des dualen Zahlensystems vorhanden. In der technischen Welt existieren keine reinen digitalen Signale. Zur Detektion von Nullen und Einsen werden elektrische Spannungsgrenzen und Zeitfenster definiert. Der Sprung von einer Null zu einer Eins oder umgekehrt erfordert immer eine gewisse Zeit, in der der Signalpegel alle Zwischenwerte, beispielsweise von 0 Volt bis 5 Volt, durchläuft. Kapazitive Lasten, dielektrische Verluste, Rauschen und elektromagnetische Störungen, die durch Kabel verursacht werden, manipulieren diesen Übergang zusätzlich. Das resultiert in zeitlichen Verschiebungen, dem sogenannten Jitter-Effekt, wodurch eine präzise Rekonstruktion des Audiosignals erschwert wird bzw. nahezu unmöglich ist. To get closer to the pinnacle of audiophile perfection, we also carefully examined the conductor material. Copper in the right purity is itself already an excellent conductor, but a superconductor with no ohmic resistance to the current would be simply perfect. The material’s superconducting properties, however, require extremely low temperatures of at least -70 degrees. Under realistic conditions, silver is currently the most conductive material. With a conductivity of 61.35 S/m (siemens per meter), it outperforms copper by around six percent. Many manufacturers only use silver-plated conductors, which over time can seem, “bright”, “metallic” and even, “annoying”. We, on the other hand, use pure silver, which has a far more neutral sound. Due to the higher drift speed of the electrons, our pure silver cable delivers a more penetrating and sumptuous sound performance, across all frequency ranges. On the other hand of course, silver is about one hundred times more expensive than copper. Neuer 180° USB-Stecker: USB-Stecker können bekanntlich nur in einer Richtung eingesteckt werden. Dies kann mühsam sein, da die Position der USB-Buchsen in Geräten variiert. Um den Verlauf des Kabels anzupassen, muss es oft stark verdreht werden, was Kabel, Stecker und Buchsen strapaziert und zudem unschön aussieht. Die von uns neu entwickelten USB-Stecker mit 180°-Drehmechanismus bieten eine Lösung: Sie können jeweils um +/- 45 Grad gedreht werden, was bedeutet, dass von Stecker zu Stecker insgesamt eine Drehung von +/- 90 Grad möglich ist. Dies ist der letzte Feinschliff für eine perfekte Verkabelung. Die dichte Abschirmung des Referenz USB-2405 AIR Kabels schützt das empfindliche Signal vor elektromagnetischen Interferenzen. Unter der Abschirmung befindet sich die innovative Air-Helix-Konstruktion, wobei Luft und der Abstand der Leiter als Isolatoren fungieren, die dielektrische Verluste verhindern und kapazitive Lasten erheblich reduzieren. Insgesamt erleichtert dies dem Digital-Analog-Wandler (DAC) die Arbeit und perfektioniert die Rekonstruktion des Audiosignals.
