Cardas Crosslink Interconnects

The Cardas Crosslink Interconnects are the entry-level analog interconnect in the Cardas lineup, warm and forgiving, but still detailed and musical, designed for entry-level to mid-level stereo and home theater systems. Available in single-ended (RCA) or balanced (XLR) configurations. Hand-built in Bandon, Oregon.

Type and Technology

Analog interconnect, twisted-pair geometry. Grade 2, 99.99% pure oxygen-free copper with SPN clear coat (Litz), gauge sizes scaled to Golden Ratio proportions. Cross-field layer geometry insulated in a polyurethane jacket. Twisted pair with natural cotton filler bound with FEP tape wrap. Tin-plated copper spiral shield. PVC outer jacket.

Sound Character

Warm and forgiving without sacrificing detail or musicality. The Crosslink takes the rough edges off bright system components while still resolving the details that matter, the Cardas family character distilled into the most accessible price tier.

Build and Connectivity

Standard terminations: Cardas GRCM (RCA) or Neutrik XLR. Hand-built in Bandon, Oregon.

Best For

First-time audiophiles upgrading from stock cables, and home theater systems where Cardas's warm-musical voicing is welcome at a real-world price.
