General transmission line signals of different frequencies have different impedances, this feature on the sound reduction performance of sound vague, production people do this out of the high-end speaker cables called intelligent signal line characteristics of this line the signal level of the frequency is divided into two channels, 5KHZ more signals transmitted by a special material nerves, 5KHZ outer following signals through the transmission line, which greatly improves the frequency characteristics of the transmission line, the reproduction of clear and transparent sound.

4. Use containing 3% silver Senju solders soldering.

5. External plus a network of high-density shock as protection.
