Plusound X8 - Copper

Delivery time 2-4 weeks

X8 - Our popular 8-core braided flagship cable for maximum performance

Our X8 series doubles the wires, sound, and construction of our Exo cable by using EIGHT high-quality, specially designed UPOCC strands with durable and flexible polyethylene outer insulation, braided to achieve better sound quality while reducing deep bass and interference noise.

Unique is the ability to create hybrids – combining two different wires with different sound qualities. This is the ideal solution to find the perfect sound you have been looking for. The selection of Type 6 strands prevents electrical anomalies such as the skin effect and proximity effect and also prevents oxidation by isolating each individual strand with a special lacquer coating to ensure long-lasting sound quality and good appearance.

The multiple proprietary damping cores reduce vibrations and maintain consistent conductivity to ensure the best sound quality. All wires are cryogenically treated to strengthen the wire structure for maximum durability and performance. The use of the highest quality components makes this cable the most powerful and highest quality interchangeable cable on the market.

 
Copper

"The cable uses stranded copper and is one of the cleaner sounding copper cables available. Firstly, the soundstage is wider and has more air between the instruments, which also improves instrument separation and everything is a bit more defined within the soundstage." - ostewart, soundperfectionreviews.com

Reviews 

Twister6

"EExcellent workmanship, high quality material, noticeable refinement in sound.
Plussound cables are priced above budget alternatives but not as high as some fancy exotic cables. When you factor in their build quality, selection of the fine materials, engineering behind the cable assembly, and dedicated support, you will see more value to justify the price.
