THESE ARE DELICATE INSTRUMENTS and should be treated as such. Do not swing your WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO CABLES around or treat them roughly. Be gentle!

IMPORTANT: YOUR NEW CABLES SHIPPED WITH NALTEX® PROTECTIVE SLEEVES AROUND THE CONNECTORS TO PROTECT THE FINISH IN SHIPPING. THESE WILL SLIP RIGHT OFF.

INSTALLING YOUR CABLES

NEVER pull your WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO cables by the wires. This will most certainly RUIN the cables by breaking the solid silver wires from their soldering points. The cables have been built with extra beefy strain relief but to pull the cable by the wires will without a doubt destroy the cables. Always insert and remove the cables from your equipment using the knurled portion of the connector.

MAKE SURE ALL OF YOUR COMPONENTS TO BE CONNECTED ARE TURNED OFF (NO POWER) BEFORE CONNECTING YOUR WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO CABLES! COMPONENTS EQUIPPED WITH A STANDBY MODE SHOULD BE UNPLUGGED!

Your new cables have been constructed using the very finest individual components available. The contacts on the connectors have been treated with a 100% solution of Caig® DeoxIT® GOLD . It prevents oxidation of the contacts and enhances the free flow of electrons between the contact and the component input. We recommend that at least once a year you disconnect and clean your contacts. Use Caig® DeoxIT® GOLD to clean the contacts. Do the same for the jacks on your audio component. Insert the connector into the input jack in a straight motion and twist slightly as you push. This insures your contact is tight. We include a free sample of DeoxIT® GOLD with each order so that you may clean and enhance your equipment connections prior to installing your new WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO cables!

ATTENTION:  Your WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO cables are equipped with locking connectors. They have been shipped with the connectors in the CLOSED (locked) position but may have moved due to vibrations in shipping.

PREPARE THE CONNECTORS FOR INSTALLATION TO YOUR EQUIPMENT:  Rotate the barrel of the connector clockwise until the connector is FULLY UNLOCKED then insert it into your equipment's RCA jack. NEXT, tighten the connector ... DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!  Use firm hand force only; never use a pair of pliers or other tool. To over-tighten will degrade the sound and could damage your component jacks resulting in a visit to the repair technician. We cannot and will not assume responsibility for damage to either the cables or your equipment due to improper installation!

When routing your WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO cables do NOT route them beside AC power cables. Even if you have purchased a shielded version of our cables, do NOT place them parallel to an AC line. This is asking for noise to leak into the audible signal being carried by your cables. If you MUST have the cables near an AC cord, always run them over the AC line at a 90° angle. This will help prevent interference.

The unshielded design of our cables is slightly sensitive to AC line and other noise (EMI and RF). The Litz braid eliminates most of this noise. However, do not allow these cables to touch AC cords. The unshielded version has a slight improvement in overall audio quality simply because the carrier wires are surrounded by pure virgin Teflon tubing which is slightly larger in diameter than the carrier wire, producing an air dielectric. The design virtually eliminates signal loss.

One other important note regarding the tri-braid WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO cables: They are somewhat sensitive to micro phonics caused by mechanical vibrations. You can strongly tap the wire with a finger while playing music and hear the sound produced by the vibrations. All cables suffer from these problems to some degree. To prevent the resonance caused by physical vibrations in the carrier, we use polyethylene braided sleeving to dampen these vibrations. As an added bonus it is extremely durable and has excellent dielectric properties.
