Pristine audio quality
The USB-C DAC delivers pristine 192 kHz, 32-bit audio. No drivers needed; simply plug it into your laptop or smartphone and select ‘SoundWire’ as audio device.
48V Protection
Custom transformers housed in the XLR connectors balance the signal, eliminating the need for DI boxes and protecting your playback device from accidental 48V activation.
QuadCore Cabling
To ensure exceptional audio quality, interference-rejection and minimise cross-talk, the cable features a shielded QuadCore wiring configuration.
Sonnect Blue Braid
A custom-made 24 Nylon twin-fibre braid sleeving strengthens the cable, protecting it from accidental tugging or pinches. The braid is detached from the cable, ensuring maximum flexibility and a soft touch.
Self-tie system
Reusable tie cord is permanently attached to the Y-split, saving you using tape and the environment from unnecessary waste.
