Our unique AIR-technology impressively demonstrates what high-end cables can achieve in terms of sound. We are now expanding our Reference Selection Series with another top-class loudspeaker cable. For the entry into this class, the sophisticated Air technology is now available for the first time in a flat “ribbon” construction. The Air-Ribbon technology has made it possible to achieve an exquisite sound very efficiently by changing the cable architecture. In the new Reference LS-804 AIR speaker cable, four wires run flat and not helically next to each other, as in the Air Helix cables LS-1204, 2404 and 4004 AIR. In this way, the electrical parameters capacitance and inductance are yet again finely tuned to each other. The division into several smaller, separate conductors also reduces the skin effect. In conjunction with Air technology, i.e. the “omission” of insulation material, which would “absorb” part of the energy like a sponge, even the Reference LS-804 AIR is capable of following very fast impulses. The sophisticated details of the Air technology counteract unwanted cable effects and make it an extraordinary loudspeaker cable. Especially with less monumental amplifiers, the LS-804 AIR harmonizes perfectly and provides relaxed music enjoyment. Like all loudspeaker and audio cables of the Reference series, the Reference LS-804 AIR is completely manufactured in Germany.
AIR RIBBON TECHNOLOGY
With the so-called Air-Ribbon cable, four wires run flat and not helically next to each other, as in the Air-Helix cables LS-1204, 2404 and 4004 AIR. The wires of the LS-804 AIR are also held in position by specially developed clips and cross-connected at both ends of the speaker cable. In this way, the electrical parameters capacitance and inductance are yet again finely tuned to each other. The division into several smaller, separate conductors also reduces the skin effect. In this way, the entire conductor surface area remains usable even at high transmission frequencies. In combination with the Air technology, i.e. the “omission” of insulation material, which would “absorb” part of the energy like a sponge, even the Reference LS-804 AIR is able to follow very fast pulses. The sophisticated details of the Air technology counteract unwanted cable effects and make it an exceptional loudspeaker cable. Especially with less monumental amplifiers, the LS-804 AIR harmonizes perfectly and provides relaxed music enjoyment.
