Description
Satin Audio Gaïa is applied with the best wire production technologies such as highest purity of materials, SP-OCC, Litz.
Satin Audio Gaïa has wires made of Superior Pure OCC Copper, highest purity. Besides, Copper is also known as one of the most conductive materials, therefore, highest purity of Copper leads to highest conductivity.Based on the International Annealed Copper Standard (IACS), the conductivity of Copper is 100% IACS, while that of OCC Copper is up to 103% IACS. At the same time, while the conductivity of Silver is up to 105% IACS, that of OCC Silver reaches 107% IACS. So, it means that thanks to OCC technology, the conductivity of Silver and Copper has increased a considerably.
SP-OCC ( Superior Pure Ohno Continuous Casting) is the most advanced casting technology developed to help defeat annealing issues and virtually eliminate all grain boundaries in copper or silver with a unique patented process. Satin Audio SP-OCC wires are made at one of a very few factories in the world which can apply this advanced technology.
Type 4 Litz construction helps to keep the impedance constant and improve the LCR values of the cables in general. The construction of type 4 is that each wire is twisted together, and then these bundle of twisted wires continue to twist around a central Nylon damping core.
Litz is the technology designed to reduce the skin effect and proximity effect losses in conductors. Thanks to Litz, there is no possibility that the wires will be oxidized and turns green.
New UltraSoft II looks better with a colorful appearance and it is much more flexible compare to our other insulations.
Using Nylon as damping core inside each strand of wire helps to minimize the vibrations and improve the durability of the cables.
Satin Audio Gaïa II offers following wire options: standard 4 braids, 6 braids and 8 braids with numerous options for terminations and connectors for a variety of IEMs. 6 braids and 8 braids are designed to support some of the most performance and high end IEMs. Thanks to a reasonable dimension of 1.1mm OD per wire, even an 8 braided cable is still compact and flexible.
Exclusive Satin Audio parts including plugs, Y-splitters and connectors are used for all Satin Audio cables.
Also, for the best quality weld, we use high quality solders – Oyaide SS-47 Solder ( 4.7% silver, Japan)
