PURIST AUDIO DESIGN JADE XLR

Jade XLR: OFC copper conductorsJade XLR is built around OFC copper conductors, carried at an effective 20 AWG. Purist pair the metallurgy with no separate dampening material to shape the tonal balance rather than leaving it to the conductor alone.

The same Diamond Revision cable is offered as both Balanced (XLR) and Balanced (XLR) - this listing is the XLR version, terminated for a balanced connection.

Jade XLR: Shielding and DielectricJade XLR runs a full 100% braid shield over a Polypropylene dielectric, which is what keeps a low-level line-level signal quiet over a run long enough to matter in a real rack.

Capacitance is 30 pF/ft (pin to shield) and conductor resistance 0.2876 Ohm/m (conductor). Purist estimate 100 hours of break-in before the cable settles into its final sound.

Jade XLR: Diamond Revision ConnectorsJade XLR carries the Diamond Revision connectors: Purist redesigned the RCA plugs in beryllium copper with a thicker gold plating, and improved the XLR connectors with beryllium copper and gold-plated pins.

If a system needs a custom configuration - length, a Din tonearm fitting, or an unusual pin-out - Purist will custom-build to order through the dealer. Every cable ships in a soft case.

Jade XLR: What the Reviewers SayJade XLR shares its reputation with the rest of the line: HiFi+ reviewed Jade in their September 2023 edition, and French reviewer Lionel Schmitt called it neutral in temperament with an expressive musical philosophy.

All Jade material is treated with the Triple (3x) Cryomag process Purist apply across the Diamond Revision range.
