Product Details
Element Bi-Wire uses 2sq mm of concentric stranded OFC copper contained in two twisted conductors for the rejection of RFI and EMI, together with another pair of 1.1 sq mm solid conductors to extend the high frequencies into improved smear-free treble. The four conductors are contained in a polyethylene dielectric and are sheathed with a pearl white PVC to prevent abrasion. Atlas Element Bi-Wire is considered in many quarters to be the reference for an entry level bi-wire speaker cable. On demonstration, Element Bi-Wire in any modest system will perform as though it cost double its price. Bass and treble frequencies are given extension while dynamics are offered at speed, thereby giving a realism rarely heard in similarly priced cables.Atlas Element Bi-Wire cables are technically advanced thanks to their use of different sized conductors that are matched for their characteristics. The H.F. (high frequency) signal is sent down a pair of solid conductors. That’s because the occupation area for the high frequency signal is greater in a solid conductor than it is in a stranded conductor, therefore the solid conductor is able to extend the high frequency signal upwards into improved smear-free treble.
The bass conductor is a multi-stranded design in order to introduce a greater cross-section of metal. That’s because the L.F. (low frequency) signal occupies the centre of the conductor. It follows that larger conductors are able to extend the low frequency signal into improved bass.

The Atlas Z-Plug, fitted by us to Atlas speaker cable, has a contact area made of beryllium copper and makes 100% contact with the 4mm female socket. We are authorised by Atlas to fit the Atlas Z-Plug to Atlas speaker cables using the cold-welding under pressure process - this process amalgamates the conductors to the plug with an air tight seal. The outer sleeve is in black ABS with a fine, oven applied powder coat finish. One of the best 4mm plugs on the market.Features
