Locus Polestar USB Cable This is not a reworking of an existing mass produced cable: this is an entirely new design using bespoke DCT-OFC wire and hand built by Locus in America. Close attention is paid to mitigating mechanical noise and triboelectric effects. The cable comprises a special braid of ultra pure DCT-OFC conductors and Teflon air tubes sleeved in a tinned copper weave and strategically located ERS fabric for shielding and additional damping. Finally, a layer of multifilament nylon is pulled over the complete assembly for extra damping and a handsome finish. “"The Polestar is a hand-built custom USB cable that uses cryogenically treated copper wire and lots of other clever design innovations to deliver an enticing combination of sonic excellence and superb musicality. The Polestar is a remarkable product, and one that unfailingly serves the music, making it a stone-cold bargain. If you're still using a generic USB cable between your computer and DAC, just go out and buy yourself a Polestar USB cable, you'll be doing yourself a big favor. I predict the Polestar will blow you away just as it did me. Way recommended!” – Jeff Day "The Polestar is impressive in its ability to convey both the musical and sonic content of a recording in a very balanced fashion. The musical content of recordings comes across as completely natural, musically convincing, and eminently enjoyable even in long listening sessions. All unnatural and amusical edge, grit, glare, and other nasties that compromise sonics and contribute to listening fatigue were eliminated. The musical content of recordings like timbre, meter, tonality, harmony, beat, tempo, syncopation, and melody, all became more convincingly life-like and expressive. Overall, the presentation of the music became warmer, rounder, and more deeply colorful tonally; with a prowess in motional elements like beat, tempo, and melodic flow that was truly exceptional." –Postive Feedback, Issue 40. |
