Cardas RCA Clear Cygnus 0.5m

Clear Cygnus greatly benefits from the latest developments in the Clear product line, notably a more economical version of the pneumatic tube suspension from Clear Beyond Interconnect. Cygnus replaces and improves upon Clear Light, delivering enhanced performance with more detail as well as a slightly richer sound with better low-frequency performance. Of course, Cygnus uses matched propagation conductors inspired by those of its “big brother”, Clear Interconnect. These conductors also feature a cross-field layer geometry, a Cardas design principle dating back to classic Cardas cables such as Hexlink and Golden Cross. The conductors are insulated in a double-layer PTFE tape-wrapped bundle.
