!mpulse AX

                                                              !mpulse AX

The AX comes in lengths from 0.5 to 2 meters, uses silver- plated brass compression hardware for better sounding connection of ribbon to plug, and is availble in RCA or balanced configurations..  The AX uses the same 6 nines pure 200 micro-inch copper ribbon as the !mpulse 200 but employs a thin polymer sleeve to insulate and protect the ribbon.  If you‘re into skin effect, the AX ribbon is thinner than skin depths from dc out to frequencies far beyond audio - 100 megahertz. This helps assure that music’s shortest and longest micro and macro transients and dynamics experience the same time delay as they travel through our interconnect.

Why is this important? If time skew is present, music’s longer duration micro transients will arrive ahead of those with shorter duration. This reduces the impact of leading edges and thus robs the music of its natural power and subtle nuances. It also reduces harmonic coherence.  The AX assures all signals take the same time to travel from source to sink no matter how short or how long their duration. The result, music has a natural impact and decay with nuances intact. Voicing of all the instruments is truer because the harmonics are nearly perfectly aligned with each other and with the fundamentals. You simply have to hear this effect in the AX to appreciate it.
