    Thought's on the new 'bullet' RCA style connector

    I'm not too sure about the advantages of the bullet connector...

    what problem does it solve by reducing contact area?

    eddy current? explain please...

    The Bullet supposedly reduces "smearing" of the signal across non-uniform metals of traditional connectors. The ground and positive conductors are both pin style and are made from tellurium copper. (I may have missed that spelling). Thus the signal and return travel evenly along their conductive path.

    Of course, in a perfect world, your component your connecting to would have a female version of this pin, not the big chunky female RCA. These pins would then lock contact for a perfect signal transmission medium.

    But some say, the Bullets are better than traditional RCAs, even with their standard plastic housing. Of course, Eichmann is making some other models of them now, but I don't have those in stock myself, and can't comment on them as yet.

    I offer the bullets on my Quantum Silver Centauri, and they can be added to other products for a small additional charge.

      Whats other than the bullet connector and Grey Tech Flex outer cover distinguish the Quantum Silver Centauri from the CatCables SilverCats?

      Sorry if you've answered this a thousand times

      Thanks

          Wallace, those are the primary differences!

          Red, lol on the chunky female remark. :twisted: Did I say something funny a while back?

              David, visit Quantum Cable and go to Silver Centauri Interconnects to see the Bullets on cables.

              Wallace, I also do pro-gold treatments at Quantum, offer different looks with the heatshrink and offer cable cooking standard. It doesn't take much to make a different cable. I mean, I could say, everything is different except the wire itself, and that's a true statement.
