Tail
End Audiophile Headphone Cable
The
AKG K1000
headphones are one of the finest headphones on the market.
Their presentation is unique, offering the listener an
experience unlike any other headphone. With carefully matched
equipment, the
AKG K1000
headphones expose the listener to an incredibly live and
transparent exhibition of sound. But, with the two piece
stock cable sections that connects to the power amplifier, they are
unable to deliver the world class sonics their designers
intended.
The Stefan AudioArt Tail End K1000 headphone cable is designed to offer a natural balance of frequencies. Within that balance, the listener will experience a fuller, deeper bass response, a sweeter/warmer midrange, clear non-fatiguing highs and an open-airy soundstage.T he Tail End K1000 cable replaces the 10-ft tail end stock section that connects to the amplifier (custom lengths available). The Stefan AudioArt K1000 headphone cable connects to the stock section which is hardwired to the AKG K1000 headphones. Click on the picture above to view the connection. The Stefan AudioArt K1000 headphone cable can be ordered in lengths up to 18-ft, without loss of sound quality.Why replace the 10-ft stock section? Because the stock section introduces considerable high frequency distortion due the due the materials incorporated and structural design. When the strains in the wire are not isolated from each other, the signal jumps from strain to strain, causing distortion which increases with length. In addition, the tight dielectric which covers the cable also adds to this distortion when the high frequencies come in contact. Total gauge and gauge variation are also factors. The high gauge and the selected gauge configuration used in the stock cable just does not transmit a balanced Endorphin of sound from an amplifier. The formula of strands used in the wire are not capable of capturing the true low frequencies, midrange and soundstage.
The 6-ft section that is hard wired to the
AKG K1000 is subject to the same distortion, but by
eliminating the10-ft stock section and replacing it with
Stefan AudioArt's carefully selected gauge configured cable, the two cables are now tuned
to achieve a neutral balance with a significant increase in
soundstage.
Sonically, the K1000 cable offers: Significant increase in soundstage. Added richness and extended lower frequencies. Dramatically warmer mid-range. Naturally balanced high frequencies. Construction: 4-conductor quad-braid field geometry cable consisting of low gauge ultra high purity copper with individual strain isolation enclosed with a Teflon/Oxygen dielectric finished in black Techflex with color matched professional 4-pin XLR connector and a choice of high quality connections to the amplifier. All connections are applied to the cable with Stefan AudioArt's exclusive Ultra-Solder Process (Patent rights issued and/or pending). Reviews:
