TIGLON JAPAN CABLES ARE NOW BEING DISTRIBUTED IN THE UK BY CONNECTING MUSIC DISTRIBUTION OF SCOTLAND.

Tiglon began developing its patented Magnesium shielding technology back in 2006, and its cables are now being brought to the UK by Connecting Music Distribution of Scotland.

TIGLON JAPAN CABLES

Tiglon’s founder, Kentaro Okino, became fascinated with the sonic properties of magnesium during his mechanical engineering studies and, after using it to suppress vibrations in loudspeaker stands and component isolation platforms, obtained an international patent in 2009 for its use as an electromagnetic wave shield in HiFi cables.

KENTARO OKINO

Okino is convinced that magnesium is a far more effective electromagnetic barrier and vibration suppressor than commonly used alternatives, explaining that it’s “an ideal shielding layer that dampens external vibration and blocks EMI/RFI radiation, producing an uncommonly low noise floor and a relaxed presentation heard in very few (other) cables”

MAGNESIUM SHIELD

Tiglon’s magnesium shield takes the form of a foil tape that’s wound spirally around the insulated conductors in the direction from input to output. The foil is electrically insulated from the input and is connected to the cold terminal of the output, “eliminating the influences of external noise invading the cable”.
