Tanto is the companion to Stealth's Tantalus interconnect, sharing its ultra-thin pure tantalum conductor but arranging it in Stealth's vari-cross geometry, in which the conductor cross-section changes along the cable's length to improve impedance matching between source and load.
Tantalum offers Stealth an alternative to its costly amorphous alloys while retaining the company's hand-built connectors and low-loss dielectrics. Tanto is offered as a pre-release model; final details will be confirmed with Stealth at the time of order.
