Neotech NEI-2001 Pure Silver Interconnect Cable

The NEI-2001 is a screened cable made of 3 sets of pure silver conductors. It is suitable for making XLR and RCA interconnect cables.

The cable has an external diameter of 11mm. The outermost layer comprises expandable sleeving, under which you have a thick PVC jacket (walls 2mm thick). The aluminium mylar shield is the next layer this greatly reduces RF and EM interference, part of the screen is a solderable wire of 0.57mm diameter, AWG 23. There are three conductor sets: clear, black and red. These sit in 3 bunches of PP net filler. Each conductor set is insulated in a clear Teflon of diameter 2.65mm. Within are three unsleeved pure silver uniformly twisted with four lengths of Teflon filler strands within. The three strands of silver are of differing diameters - 0.4mm (AWG 26), 0.51mm (AWG 24) and 0.65mm (AWG 22).

  For use as an XLR cable, connect the RED to pin 2/positive/hot, BLACK to pin 3/negative/cold, and CLEAR to pin 1 ground/gold. If there is a screen, connect to the body of the plug at the signal source end and cut short the other end.  

For use as RCA cable you use the RED - SIGNAL, BLACK - RETURN, CLEAR - and the screen for the earth at the signal source end.

This cable has amazing transparency and detail. It is an incredibly high-end cable comparable to manufactured interconnects with a price tag of £500 for a meter pair.
