{"product_id":"stealth-pgs-v16-t-analog-interconnect","title":"Stealth PGS-V16-T Analog Interconnect","description":"\u003cp\u003ePGS stands for Pure Gold Signal: since the original of 1999, the conductor carrying the signal has been gold and nothing else, while the return is a copper braid that also serves as the shield. The PGS has long been regarded as one of Stealth's most refined, analog-sounding interconnects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor V15\/V16 Stealth replaced pure 99.99% gold with a proprietary layered gold-molybdenum-ruthenium alloy. It keeps the familiar sweetness of gold while sounding closer to neutral, with better treble extension and the slight upper-treble colouration of pure gold largely removed, which suits today's better digital sources. The V16 is also thicker than the PGS-08, more robust, and about 20% lower in capacitance, with the internal geometry unchanged. The PGS-V16-T adds Stealth's sliding tuning collar; otherwise it is identical to the standard PGS-V16.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal conductor: proprietary layered alloy of gold, molybdenum and ruthenium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn path: copper braid, doubling as the shield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarger diameter than PGS-08, giving roughly 20% lower capacitance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRCA connectors: rhodium-plated with carbon locking collars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXLR connectors: Stealth-modified Neutrik with carbon fibre backs and serial numbers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividually serial-numbered cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning collar: a sliding ferromagnetic collar moved along the cable while listening; at the right spot the sound comes into focus, much like a lens.
