Tributaries Series 6 Mark II Balanced Audio Cable (XLR)
Crafted for discerning audiophiles, the Tributaries Series 6 Mark II Balanced Audio Cable is a premium solution for superior signal fidelity and noise rejection. Hand-assembled in Orlando, Florida, each cable features dual-gauge high-conductivity oxygen-free copper (HC-OFC) conductors precisely engineered to support the full audio spectrum — from rich bass to detailed highs. The individually insulated conductors eliminate strand interaction, while the precision-twisted balanced design with dual shielding ensures a quiet, interference-free signal path. With solid-brass, gold-plated XLR connectors and forward-grounding pin design, signal integrity is preserved even during connection — making these cables both neutral in sound and built for long-term performance.
Specifications
- Assembly: Hand-assembled in Orlando, Florida using domestic and foreign components
- Conductors: Dual balanced 20 AWG ultra-pure HC-OFC (High Conductivity Oxygen-Free Copper)
- Gauge Design: Multi-gauge dual solid-core wires optimized for low, mid, and high frequencies
- Insulation: Each conductor is individually insulated to eliminate strand interaction and distortion
- Shielding: Dual shielding minimizes electromagnetic and radio frequency interference
- Connector Type: Gold-plated solid-brass XLR connectors
- Grounding: Female ground (pin 1) placed forward in shell for early grounding and reduced hum
- Cable Jacket: Decorative woven mesh over UL® CL2-rated PVC jacket
- Strain Relief: Series 6 Mark II lock collar strain relief for enhanced durability
- Lengths: Available in mono and stereo pairs from 0.5 to 4 meters; custom lengths available
Expanded Key Features List
- Dual-Gauge HC-OFC Conductors: Ensures pure signal transmission with ultra-high conductivity and tonal balance.
- Individually Insulated Conductors: Prevents strand interaction for clearer, more accurate audio.
- Precision-Twisted Balanced Design: Maintains signal integrity and prevents crosstalk between channels.
- Dual Shielding Technology: Blocks external noise sources to preserve low noise floor in critical listening setups.
- Gold-Plated XLR Connectors with Advanced Grounding: Provides strong connection, corrosion resistance, and ground-first contact to minimize hum.
- Customizable Lengths with Durable Outer Jacket: Offers flexibility for any setup with a robust, UL®-rated PVC and woven exterior jacket.
