Design

Clarity and Mobility

Designed with portability in mind, Ethos encapsulates its braids in a clear jacket. The cable carries little memory effect and stays ultra-flexible, so it is at home on stage and on the go.

Conductor

All Silver-Plated Copper

UPOCC-cast silver-plated copper, with braided SPC full-jacket RF shielding. A 40% larger single strand and a larger overall cross-section than the previous generation reduce impedance for more effective signal delivery.

116 threads per braid, 232 threads per cable.

Sound

Textured, Hi-Fidelity Sound

The silver-plated copper composition gives Ethos a textured, hi-fidelity sound, with tight, controlled bass and surround-like headroom.

Hardware

Black and Rose Gold

Premier CNC-machined aluminium hardware with an anodised and electroplated finish in black and rose gold, high-precision 24k gold-plated pin contacts and NA custom 10% silver solder.

Sound Guide

An all silver-plated copper build gives Ethos MKVI a textured, hi-fidelity sound, with tight, controlled bass and surround-like headroom.

Craft and care

Care

Caring for Your Cable

Coil it loosely in large loops when you store it.

Unplug by holding the connector, not the cable, and avoid sharp bends right at the plugs.

Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth, and keep it away from solvents and alcohol-based cleaners.

Every cable has a 1-year warranty. If anything goes wrong, contact us and we’ll take care of it.
