It uses 6x (RCA) or 9x (XLR) pure silver Air Strings in an air (sealed) dielectric, 33% more than Foundation SX, for harmonic nuance, ambient detail, and a pitch-black background. Every cable uses SRX XL Matrix Shielding with Graphene and is treated with SRX XL High Voltage Conditioning, bringing Foundation XL's voicing closer to the flagship SRX XL line. Included Gold and Purple Carbon Tuning Discs let you voice the cable to your system, or run it clean.
