Subwoofer and speaker manufacturer SVS has announced the availability of the SoundPath Balanced XLR (pictured above) and Digital Optical cables. The XLR line ranges in lengths from 1 to 15 meters and start at $39.99, while the optical cables come in 1-, 2- and 3-meter lengths, starting at $29.99.
The Balanced XLRs feature cold-fused 24K gold plating on all electrical contacts and premium zinc-alloy terminals with black nickel plating for improved conductivity. A five-layer insulation system within the cable will reject noise, EMI, and RF interference. Three balanced oxygen-free-copper conductors are isolated for superior connection integrity while second and third layers of insulation consist of an aluminum wrap shield and 56-strand spiral braid of high purity copper. A PVC jacket provides flexibility, grip, and forms the final two layers.

The Digital Optical cables use a polished monofilament design for smooth transitions and better transfer between components. SVS says the cables deploy aircraft-grade aluminum terminals and 24K gold-plated connectors for a highly conductive connection free from distortion. A protective braided cotton jacket allows an easier grip and flexibility for routing and placement. The cables pass uncompressed 2-channel PCM stereo and compressed 5.1 Dolby Digital and DTS audio.
“All SVS SoundPath audio accessories follow the same design philosophy of bringing inspired engineering and world-class performance to more people than ever,” said Gary Yacoubian, President, SVS. “Across the board, from the look, feel, and sound, our new SVS SoundPath Optical cable provides a high-end audio experience in every way.”
SVS cables are covered by a 5-year unconditional warranty. For more information, visit SVS.
