Satin Audio Athena II Review — Headfonics
Flagship Upgrade Cable with Gold, Silver & Palladium
Inspired by Athena, an ancient Greek goddess associated with wisdom, craftsmanship and war, Athena II not only brings luxurious beauty but also showcases the sophistication in every material.
Based on the experience with Athena, Zeus and Apollo, Satin Audio has chosen to use one of the best premium alloys. The Athena II is the perfect combination of silver-gold alloy, pure silver and palladized silver to create an audio cable masterpiece.
With our meticulous attention to detail, the Athena II promises to be a great companion for your IEMs. Satin Audio has researched and selected the best ratio between silver, silver-gold alloy and palladium to maximize the transmission of the audio signal.
The Athena II is manufactured using SP-OCC (Superior Pure OCC) technology to produce the purest silver with a purity level of 6N (99.99998%) and even 7N (99.999998%), depending from the different batches. This is the highest purity level of silver cable released to date.
In addition, the Athena II is provided with the special satin structures, which were developed from type 4 strands. The result is that the structure not only has similar properties to the Type 4 strand, but also has some improvements:
-
Hybrid Central Bundle: The bundles consist of very small strands, and instead of a central Kevlar damping core, this Kevlar core is now surrounded by strands. This structure helps increase durability, anti-vibration and signal transmission.
-
Different sized strands: Satin Audio uses different sized strands, each with a layer of insulation to protect them from oxidation and maximize signal transmission.
In addition, the Athena II is equipped with the advanced SA Insulation II jacket, which improves the flexibility and transparency of the cable, making it even shinier and more eye-catching.
This jacket has been intentionally designed to be soft and comfortable to wear throughout the period of use and not harden after contact with sweat like other cables on the market.
The Best Conductive Connectors
As a high-end product line focused on optimizing signal transmission, every Athena II is equipped with the best quality connectors and connectors.
For the connectors we use our specially developed Satin 2-Pin TeCu/PEEK and MMCX TeCu/Teflon with a very high transmission index, with IACS up to 93% compared to normal 27% brass IACS connectors from other brands.
Almost anything is possible
