Stealth Metacarbon Analog Interconnect

Metacarbon (metallised carbon) was Stealth's answer to a simple question: how close can a cable get to the Indra using less exotic materials than its amorphous alloy? The signal path is carbon, metallised by a Stealth process tuned for the best possible treble extension while keeping the purity and neutrality of a carbon conductor.
Stealth regards it as a genuine contender for reference use, and with the Indra it shared Positive Feedback's 2007 Writers' Choice Award. The current Revision 09 adds Stealth's newest connectors with solid silver RCA ground/return, which makes the RCA version measurably quieter and more refined, and shorter, easier-to-handle plugs.
Construction
- Conductor: metallised carbon
- Connectors (Revision 09): Stealth proprietary RCA and XLR with machined carbon fibre shells, solid silver XLR contacts and RCA centre pins, solid silver RCA ground/return
- Connector dielectric: ultra-modified PTFE (Teflon), for lower dielectric constant, better grip and a pore-free surface
- Optional WBT RCA connectors on request
Specifications
- Type: line-level analog interconnect
- Terminations: RCA or XLR
- Relatively stiff cable: shortest RCA length 0.75 m, shortest XLR length 1 m
Ordering
Lengths: 0.6 m, 1.0 m, 1.5 m, 2.0 m; connector/type options: RCA, XLR. Priced per stereo pair. Other lengths on request.
