The Premium Link series S101 model combines an NSC2 OFC conductor with a new NAP elastomer insulator material in an original Providence design that accurately transmits all of your signal, from lows to highs, for outstanding definition and presence. The NAP elastomer insulation also results in a lighter, more flexible cable compared to previous types.* A super-high-density braided shield plus carbon-impregnated conductive vinyl sheath effectively shut out electromagnetic noise, shielding your sound from high-frequency TV and radio interference as well as noise from motors and similar sources. Gold-plated one-piece Providence NP-14G or NP-14GL (L-angle) plugs provide optimum matching with the S101 sound. * In-house comparison.
