Stealth Hyperphono Phono Cable

The Hyperphono is three cables in one: two identical signal cables plus a separate ground run of the same diameter. They meet at the mini-DIN and otherwise run apart, held only by a machined Teflon tri-nut that slides along to make connection to any phono stage or step-up transformer easy. In the RCA-to-RCA version the three runs join mid-way.

Because a cartridge is inherently balanced, Stealth makes the Hyperphono internally balanced even in its RCA form, giving it much lower noise than a coaxial phono cable. Listeners are typically struck first by how quiet it is. Each cable is made to order.

Construction

• Signal conductor: solid-core, single-crystal (continuous cast) alloy of 50% gold and 50% silver
• Two identical solid-core signal wires per signal cable, woven symmetrically in a matrix geometry; internally balanced
• Dielectric: porous Teflon
• Ground run: Stealth low-resistance, low-inductance, RF-transparent LITZ
• Shielding: metallised carbon fibre with multiple silver-plated OFC drain wires, grounded at a single point
• Connectors: Stealth Teflon mini-DIN with carbon fibre shell (V14 universal 'FLEX' mini-DIN); shell-less RCAs of machined Teflon with solid silver contacts and Kevlar-reinforced hollow silver centre pins; Stealth XLRs with carbon fibre shells, Teflon dielectric and solid silver contacts
