ATLAS AILSA ACHROMATIC SPEAKER CABLE LAUNCHED BY THE SCOTTISH BRAND

Atlas cables, the Scottish cable brand has launched the new Atlas Ailsa Achromatic speaker cable.

Joining the Atlas Ailsa Achromatic interconnect, which was launched in 2021, Ailsa is pitched between the company’s Hyper and Mavros cable ranges and offers users OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) conductor technology and microporous PTFE dielectrics at a lower price point than previously available.

Ailsa is aimed at mid to high-end system users and features technology deployed in the higher-end Mavros range.

Atlas Ailsa Achromatic speaker cable consists of 2 x 3.0mm2 OCC multi-stand copper conductors wrapped in a high-efficiency microporous PTFE dielectric. This is enhanced with super stabilised conductor geometry (SSG isolation layer), an extruded outer layer that keeps the multiple strand conductor symmetrical and geometrically accurate. The cable is then packed out with anti-vibration cotton filler and finished with a high-gloss grey jacket.

ATLAS ACHROMATIC Z PLUGS

As with all Atlas analogue products, the Ailsa speaker cable is delivered from the factory terminated with the company’s Achromatic Z (4mm plugs) or S (spade terminals).  Being low mass and non-conductive, Atlas says that the plug body eliminates the detrimental effects of circulating Eddy currents, whilst also being self-cleaning.

Kevin Kelly, Managing director of Atlas Cables had this to say “The Ailsa speaker cable bridges the gap between our Hyper and Mavros range, offering our customers even more choice. We have finally managed to successfully trickle down our OCC/microporous PTFE technology and included it in the Ailsa design, giving us a truly breath-taking performance for the money. We have been constantly surprised when conducting listening tests as to just how precise the Ailsa speaker cable is, given its rather modest price compared to many high-end rivals.”
