Cardas Clear Reflection Interconnects

The Cardas Clear Reflection Interconnects bring flagship-level performance to real-world systems, neutral and dynamic with a pitch-black background, excellent high-frequency extension, and the slight forgiveness that makes them universally compatible across system contexts. A homage to the legendary Cardas Golden Reference, blending the very best of the old with the very best of the new. Hand-built in Bandon, Oregon.

Type and Technology

Reference analog interconnect, suspended air-core twisted-pair geometry. Matched Propagation Kevlar core with Grade 1, 99.9999% pure oxygen-free copper, SPN clear-coated Litz construction, gauge sizes scaled to Golden Ratio proportions. Cross-field layer geometry insulated in extruded PFA. Anti-static LDPE air-tubes bound with carbon-impregnated PTFE tape wrap. Outer-layer PTFE air-tubes scaled 1.618 times larger than the core tubes suspend the double composite shields (tinned copper plus magnet wire) away from the signal conductors. Finished in a black ultra-soft extruded TPR jacket. Introduces a new copper-colored SRCA-CU connector matching the cosmetics of the Clear Reflection speaker cable.

Sound Character

Very neutral and dynamic, with pitch-black backgrounds and excellent high-frequency extension. The slight forgiveness in the presentation makes Clear Reflection more flexible across imperfect rooms and systems than the strictly neutral flagships, without giving up resolution or musicality.

Build and Connectivity

Standard terminations: Cardas SRCA-CU single-ended or CG XLR-CU balanced. Hand-built in Bandon, Oregon.

Best For

Audiophiles with high-performance systems in real-world rooms, those who want Clear-series transparency with a touch more forgiveness in the presentation, and who appreciate the black-and-copper cosmetics of the Clear Reflection line.
