Inakustik Reference LS-2404 Air Mk2 is a high-end loudspeaker cable that will bring out the very best in audiophile reference systems.
The new Reference LS-2404 AIR loudspeaker cable combines the outstanding qualities of its predecessor the LS-2404 and the almost legendary NF-2404 audio cable. This has resulted in a loudspeaker cable that not only has the all-important low inductivity necessary for its application, but also low capacity values and low dielectrical losses.
The air-helix construction is wholly unique. We have developed a special clip to ensure air insulation that is as close to perfection as possible. A large number of these clips form the supporting structure on the inside of the cable. This holds the signal conductor free in the air in a helix form and guides it through the cable at defined intervals. The flexibility of this construction is attained with two bridges that hold the clips together evenly and at exact intervals. The Cross Link Super Speed waveguides are threaded and fitted with clips by hand with extreme care in our own manufacturing unit. Afterwards the air-helix created in this manner is given its PE network jacket again by hand. Finally the rhodium-coated plugs are fitted and the cable function is tested.
The conductors themselves of course also play a major role. The LS-2404 is made of 24 highly pure copper wires braided on a PE core. An exceedingly thin coating layer on the wires prevents eddy currents inside this Cross Link Super-Speed Waveguide the rigorous further development of the super-speed waveguide. This conductor is also used in the NF-2404, but it is considerably more effective in the LS-2404 AIR. The reason for this is that by far the largest currents in the entire audio chain flow through the loudspeaker cables. Part of the correspondingly strong magnetic fields are already compensated by the eight wires on their own. This is ensured by the braided and therefore opposed stranding of the individual wires. Their wafer-thin lacquer coating insulates the wires from each other. The structure ensures greater stability and peace in the conduct.
