Atlas Hyper Achromatic Turntable Audio Cable
The Atlas Hyper Achromatic X RCA is designed to help you unlock the full potential of your vinyl system. Many turntables benefit from upgrades beyond their standard setup, and one of the most important factors in achieving high-quality playback is the cable linking your turntable to your amplifier or phono stage. The Hyper Achromatic X delivers exceptionally low noise performance, providing an immediate improvement in clarity and musical balance. This interconnect uses high-purity OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) copper conductors combined with a PTFE dielectric and twin coax double-shielded OFC screen. The result is a cable that minimizes interference while ensuring precision in signal transfer. A dedicated earth tag is included, making it an ideal match for both moving magnet and moving coil phono cartridges. The payoff is a sound that feels richly detailed, with every nuance of your records faithfully presented. Finished in Eurobox packaging, the Achromatic X RCA is as practical as it is effective, giving your hi-fi system the upgrade it deserves. Whether you are refining an existing setup or building a vinyl system from the ground up, this cable offers a powerful step forward in audio performance.

Achromatic Plugs
Atlas’s expert electro-mechanical knowledge has led to the innovation of the next generation of RCA plugs. Known as the ‘Atlas Achromatic RCA plug’, Atlas has focused on improving both performance and appearance to create a higher performance starting point for their RCA cables as well as eliminating variability in performance. This has been achieved by refocusing on materials and the assembly processes.
Atlas has made 4 key changes with the Achromatic RCA plug. Firstly, the barrel of the Achromatic plug features a high stability ABS material. This is strong, stable and of superlative surface quality.
There is also an improvement to the Achromatic plug’s contact geometry, aiding the contact properties of the plug and the self-cleaning wiping action to ensure contacts are in optimal condition and to maximise signal transmission.
The third change Atlas made was around the rifling of the RCA pin. This improvement self-aligns the conductors during the cold weld processing, ensuring a superior stable connection.
Finally, there is a reduction in the overall mass of the RCA plug by 8% which has shown to improve signal transmission.
The above changes mean a solder-free, low mass, self-cleaning, recyclable RCA plug with a non-conductive body.
OCC Copper
The Ohno continuous casting method re-heats the extrusion as the molten copper is forced out of the mould and very slowly and gradually draws the grain or crystal down the conductor''s length, creating a ‘single crystal structure.’ Actually, because no copper is 100% pure, there will always be a few boundaries produced by impurities. The frequency of boundaries created are quite insignificant. A typical crystal in a copper conductor drawn to 0.3 mm diam. using the OCC process is 125.00 metres long! The benefits are obvious, with almost no crystal boundaries, the audio signal is no longer impeded down the copper wire and more information and detail is delivered faithfully to the receiving equipment.
