Atlas Element & Hyper Analogue Cables – Replacements For Your Turntable
5th November 2016
Atlas has added four new replacement turntable cables: Element TT, Element Tonearm, Hyper TT and Hyper Tonearm with the addition of earth cables (Element TT and Hyper TT) and in the case of the Element and Hyper Tonearm, utilised its dedicated straight or right angled 5-pin Din connector to connect straight into the bottom of compatible tonearms
The Element signal conductor is made of OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) copper encased in cross linked Low Density Polypropylene (XLPE). A fully-shielded, pseudo balanced design, the Element is designed and constructed to provide resistance to RFI (Radio Frequency Interference).
The TT variant is fitted with Atlas’ proprietary Integra non-magnetic RCA plugs both ends and comes supplied with a separate spade-terminated ground lead. The Tonearm version is fitted with Atlas’ own hard gold-plated 5-pin Din (straight or right-angled versions available) at the tonearm end and is also supplied with a spade-terminated ground lead.
The Hyper signal consists of two independent channel conductors produced from OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) high purity, single grain copper encapsulated within a low-loss Fluorated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) dielectric.
As with the Element TT, the Hyper TT is fitted with Atlas’ own low-mass, non-compression, constant impedance, self-cleaning, solder-free construction Integra RCA plug at both ends, whilst the Tonearm version is fitted with the same 5-pin Din connector. Both versions are supplied with a separate spade-terminated ground lead.
Prices start from £82.50 for the Element cables and £190 Hyper cables for a metre pair.
