Pro-Ject Connect It Phono DS Mini XLR to XLR Phono Cable

Pro-Ject Connect It Phono DS Mini XLR to XLR Phono Cable

The DS Series Details

Connect it DS signal cables use aĀ high-purity OFCĀ conductors. They have a low capacitance rating making them especially good for carrying the phono signal. The conductors are shielded with helicalĀ OFC and aĀ conductive TPE sub-jacket, offering great signal protection and cable flexibility. DS cables add standard XLR & 5-pin DIN termination for more options in the balanced arena.

Connect it LS DS speaker cable uses 8 x 0.75mm² solid-core conductors, minimizing signal loss due to low impedance. The twisted construction reduces the risk of interference along the transmission line.

All DS Series connectors useĀ silver-plated signal pins withĀ higher conductivity and lowerĀ contact resistance thanĀ gold.

Why Cable Quality Matters

Quality cables don’t make your gear sound better as much as they can pass along the full extent of the musical information that that gear can convey. A good cable ensures the transfer of detail & spacial information from one piece of gear to another while rejecting external interference that manifests as noise. Using a poorly designed cable can limit the potential of your hi-fi setup and can definitely exacerbate the ā€œbottleneck effect.ā€ Some folks compare it to automotive concepts; a sports car’s engine is equally powerful with good tires and bad ones, but take that car to the road with bad tires and you’ll be missing out on the full experience. The same applies to sound systems. Good turntables, phono preamps & amplifiers needĀ quality cabling so that their potential can be actualized & delivered to your ears!

Our ā€œConnect itā€ cable lineup offersĀ different connection types & technologies as well asĀ various conductor, shielding & connector materials. As usual with Pro-Ject, we’ve got a cable for everyone, and each one reliably out-performs its price. With 30+ years experience in hi-fi, we’ve developed four cable series that cover all your analog needs.

Pro-Ject Audio Cables Overview

To clarify the nomenclature, take the example of our standard phono cable that ships with most turntables:Ā Connect it Phono E RCA. All cables are designatedĀ Connect it.Ā The termĀ PhonoĀ means it’s designed for the phono signal (always with ground whether balanced or not).Ā EĀ refers to the cable series and of course,Ā RCAĀ clarifies the cable termination. The same formula applies to specialty (balanced) and line-level cables. Thusly,Ā Connect it Line E RCAĀ is a conventional line-level RCA cable without grounding spades, andĀ Connect it Phono E RCA > Mini XLRĀ refers to the E Series balanced phono cable that connects a turntable’s RCA output to a phono preamp’s balanced mini XLR input (as with Phono Box S3 B & DS3 B, Tube Box DS3 B). Keep in mind that anything with a mini XLR connector, standard XLRs or 5-pin DIN is a balanced cable and should be used in that context. Also note thatĀ LSĀ is the designation for all speaker cables (Connect it LS E, LS S, LS DS & LS RS).

TheĀ E, S, DS & RSĀ designations mirror our electronics’ nomenclature and can be viewed respectively as good, great, better & best! Like our electronics have increasingly sophisticated circuitry & features as you climb up the line, our cable series improve in quality with better signal conductors, shielding, dielectrics & connectors.
