Ultralink/XLO Will Highlight Argentum Acoustics Cables At CES

According to a company press release, Ontario, CA-based Ultralink/XLO Products will feature its Argentum-series interconnects and cables at the company’s upcoming CES display.

According to the release, Argentum Acoustics cables are targeted primarily toward high-end, two-channel applications, but “work extremely well in crossover video applications where sound is paramount.” The Argentum cable range includes the following models:

•    RCA/XLR MYTHOS interconnects,

•    PROTEUS-12 power cord,

•    Insulators (dielectrics): DuPont Teflon.
•    Interconnect plugs: 24K gold-plated, nonmagnetic, low mass, low self-inductance plugs.
