Van Den Hul The Orchid Balanced Analogue Interconnect Cable

The Orchid Balance Analogue Interconnect Cable, by Van Den Hul.

Orchid is the first audio interconnect cable to employ VDH's newly developed Tunnel Technology - a clever combination of physical concepts which oppose the signal level and frequency dependent behaviour of electrical signal transfer in cables.

Tunnel Technology underlying philosophy is that the longer the distance of, and the better the path is, along which the signal carrying electrons and their related electromagnetic waves can flow unimpeded, the less disturbances the signal and sound will undergo.

As the result of applied Tunnel Technology, high quality materials and meticulous manufacture, The Orchid provides an exceptional dynamic range and frequency response. Furthermore, The Orchid is characterised by its impeccable preservation of resolution, ambience and definition, unbelievable reproduction of space and distance as well as being extremely natural, open and non-fatiguing sound. An excellent choice for the demanding audiophile.

The Orchid is a slim but very robust, 2.9 mm diameter, three conductor (balanced) interconnect equipped with a solid core centre conductor designed for maximum sonic performance. The cable’s construction ensures that the core is virtually unbreakable.

The triaxial construction embraces a dense braided 80-strand shield, a similar underlying 48-strand second shield / signal conductor and a solid signal core. The internal insulators furthermore are Linear Structured Carbon treated.
