Pro-Ject Connect It Phono DS Mini XLR to Mini XLR Balanced Cable - 1.23M

Pro-Ject Connect It Phono DS Mini XLR to Mini XLR Balanced Cable - 1.23M

This Pro-Ject Connect it Phono DS mini XLR cable allows for True Balanced Connection with your Pro-Ject turntable. Designed to deliver precise phono signal transfer with 99.99% OFC copper conductors and silver plated connectors. Connect it DS high quality audio cables offer low capacity construction, effective shielding, and flexible design for detailed and reliable audio performance.

Optimized for Turntable and Phono Applications

The Connect it DS signal cables use a high purity 99.99% OFC copper conductor with low capacity, making them suitable for phono and turntable connections. Because of this low capacity design, they are optimized for turntable connection where accurate signal transfer is important.

• Optimized for turntable connection
• Low capacity cable construction
• High quality audio cables with 99.99% OFC copper

The dielectric made from high flexible cell polyethylene and the thermoplastic elastomer jacket support reliable performance while maintaining flexibility in typical turntable setups.

High Conductivity with Silver Plated Connectors

All DS-Line connectors use silver plated signal pins, which offer higher conductivity with the lowest contact resistance compared to gold. Therefore, they support accurate signal transfer in demanding audio applications.

• Silver plated connectors for higher conductivity
• Solid high quality plugs
• Low contact resistance signal pins

Effective Shielding and Flexible Construction

The shielding is implemented with a helical OFC copper construction and a carbon saturated conductive sub-jacket. This combination provides protection for the signal while maintaining cable flexibility.

• OFC copper helix shielding
• Conductive carbon sub-jacket
• High flexible construction

The 2 x 0.2mm² construction together with 90 pF (1.23m) cable capacity supports stable signal properties in typical use lengths.

Frequently Questions

• What makes the Connect it DS cables suitable for turntables?

  The Connect it DS cables use low capacity 99.99% OFC copper conductors optimized for turntable connection, which makes them suitable for phono applications.

• How are the Connect it DS cables shielded?

  The shielding uses a helical OFC copper construction combined with a carbon saturated conductive sub-jacket to provide protection while keeping the cable flexible.

• Why are silver plated connectors used instead of gold?

  All DS-Line connectors use silver plated signal pins because they offer higher conductivity with the lowest contact resistance compared to gold.

• Does silver oxidation affect the cable’s performance?

  Oxidation of the silver surface is only an optical issue because silver oxide is as conductive as silver itself.

• Are there True Balanced versions of the Connect it DS cables?

  Yes, this version of the Connect it DS is a special True Balanced turntable cable. To use the True Balanced Connection, a Pro-Ject turntable needs to be equipped with an MC cartridge or the Pick it PRO Balanced.

• Where are the Connect it DS cables manufactured?

  The Connect it DS cables are handmade in Europe.
