NEW from WHITE ZOMBIE
AUDIO! The WHITE ZOMBIE AUDIO ZeroPointZero - solid silver sleeved in pure
Teflon XLR balanced audio interconnect cables.
|
I connected the White
Zombie zero pt zero xlr interconnects between my Cary V12 tube amp and Classe'
47.5 preamp. Please note that I was not expecting to hear a difference because I
do not put much stock in esoteric cables and tweaks. However, as an electronics
technician, I can appreciate that silver is a superior conductor over copper and
was willing to give it a shot.
Well, to my delight, my
Martin Logan Ascents seemed to get taller and wider e.g. the soundstage got much
bigger.
In addition, the White
Zombies have far better resolution. The better resolution was evident as I
listened to uncanny lifelike cymbals and piano that I thought was in the room
with me. Every time I switched back to the Monster Cables, I found new
differences (congested, colored, boring, etc). Try Eva Cassidy's CD "Time After
Time." I sat there listening with a big grin on my face knowing that these
cables single-handedly improved my system more than my technical mind can
reason. The zero pt zero appears very well built - better than the Kimber KCAG
which I use between my CD player and preamp. Thanks for providing us a great
product at a bargain price. I think this is the steal of the decade in
interconnects.
Everyone considering KCAGs should consider these. Note that my system is an
extremely revealing one. I can't say that everyone will have the same great
results I did, but at this price, anyone can afford to squeeze every inch of
hifi out of their gear.
Let me know if I can help you sell these in my area. I am a member of the
Richmond Audio Society and have dozens of good connections (pun intended).
Thanks Again,

17AWG thick-walled Zeus™ extruded virgin PTFE
Polytetrafluoroethylene Teflon® tubes
■
On the atomic level, a PTFE molecule resembles a carbon rod encased in a sheath
of fluorine atoms. These atoms form a strong and continuous shield around the
carbon-carbon bonds, providing it with chemical resistance and stability. This
atomic make-up is what imbues PTFE with its key properties:
■
High continuous service temperature (260ºC)
■
Very lubricious - lowest coefficient of friction of any polymer
■
Chemical and solvent resistance
■
Non-capacitance
electrical resistance
■
High melting point (342ºC/648ºF) (Complete
summary of properties pdf)
Dielectric
■
Air
Termination
■
WBT® 4-percent German-made silver solder
IN ADDITION: The LITZ TRI-BRAID
geometry effectively eliminates RF and EMI noise. These are VERY detailed
and dynamic cables. There is no shield or jacket because they add nothing to the
sonics of these cables (therefore, they take nothing away, either). The
thick-walled Teflon tubing is tougher and more abrasion resistant that ANY other
available jacketing material other than Kevlar®
These cables, as are all of our products, are
worthy of the most sophisticated audio equipment made on this or any other
planet. If you want a pair of high end cables with gas infused goo squirted
inside the insulation; wires supposedly made from voodoo blends of precious
metals, cables soaked in liquid nitrogen or a stroll down the midway at a sleazy
carnival... THESE CABLES ARE NOT FOR YOU.
But if you want an extended high frequency
with lush midrange and full bass, the ZeroPointZero can deliver. The
soundstage is wide and deep. And you'll notice details like drum brushes on
cymbals, the attack and decay of notes and the richness of your music you never
thought possible from such an affordable pair of cables.
The time has come to put all the questionable
voodoo bulls*#^ aside that's been running rampant of late and get back to some
solid electrical engineering principles. Truth is: NOTHING is GAINED with many
of the just plain ignorant things being done to audio cables nowadays. Science
is science.
