When designing these I tried to tick as many boxes as possible. High-end audio cables are always going to be contentious. Some people swear they make a difference and some people get upset that they even exist.

So... I decided that if I was going to design a new high-end range, one of the top priorities would be for it to look and feel like a high-end designer creation. The cover on these is made from heavy-weight embroidered silk, so looks and feels special as well as having exceptional performance.

This cable has incredibly low capacitance due to the distance between the cores and the silk covering. It has a relatively large cross-sectional area of copper to give it a very low impedance but by using litz wire we can stop the skin effect coming into play even at frequencies well above 100khz ( overkill for audio ;) This means the impedance is not only low but flat across all frequencies that even the highest rez audio players can kick out. This ensures the signal that leaves the amp gets to the headphones unchanged, which is what you want from a cable ;)

I know this is unnecessarily high end and each cable will cost more than most of the headphones I look at in the videos but sometimes it is nice just to make something where money is no object and see what is possible

The hardest part of this was figuring out how to coat a wire in graphene. I ended up mixing graphene powder with various binders to create a graphene ink that would soak into the silk-wrapped litz. It needed two coats to get full coverage so I had to design a machine that would submerge the litz in the ink, then dry it before going back through the vat of ink for a second coat, and then finally going through an annealer to help it fuse together.

The graphene coating does not have a huge effect on things but it is a material that I find fascinating and it does offer some RFI and EMI shielding without raising the capacitance too much.
