The special carbon conductor coaxial First Ultimate cable is a threefold heavier shielded version of The First. The First Ultimate is designed for high quality (unbalanced/asymetric) line level audio and SPDIF digital audio connections. It gives extended low level information, a total lack of any harshness and a clean sound reproduction.
Please note: The First Ultimate interconnect is NOT suitable for connecting a pre-amp to a power amp. The optimum cable for this is Van Den Hul's The Second.
