PURIST AUDIO DESIGN VENUSTAS RCA

Venustas RCA: An alloy of silver, copper and gold (Ag/Cu/Au)Venustas RCA is built around an alloy of silver, copper and gold (Ag/Cu/Au), carried at an effective 22 AWG. Purist pair the metallurgy with a refined Ferox dampening material to shape the tonal balance rather than leaving it to the conductor alone.

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

Venustas RCA: Shielding and DielectricVenustas RCA runs a full 100% braid shield over a Teflon 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 40 pF/ft (pin to shield) and conductor resistance 0.053 Ohm/m (conductor). Purist estimate 250 hours of break-in before the cable settles into its final sound.

Venustas RCA: Diamond Revision ConnectorsVenustas RCA 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.

Venustas RCA: What the Reviewers SayVenustas RCA shares its reputation with the rest of the line: Venustas took an AVShowrooms Gold Show Award at RMAF 2016, and for the price point Purist still call it one of their most neutral cables.

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