Highlands Tonearm Cable
The Highlands Tonearm Cable is an advanced Zavfino analogue cable engineered specifically for ultra-low-level phono signals. It combines 99.9998% pure silver conductors, precision Litz construction, advanced dielectric materials, and comprehensive shielding in a purpose-built tonearm design.
At its core, the Highlands utilizes 99.9998% pure silver conductors formed using a precision Litz architecture. Each individual strand is separately insulated before being formed into the finished conductor, helping minimize interaction between strands while providing excellent signal integrity, low-level resolution, and transient accuracy.
Before insulation and assembly, the conductors receive Zavfino's Deep Cryo™ treatment, followed by Ultra Sonic-7™ cleaning and high-voltage conditioning. This process prepares the conductor surface for assembly and removes microscopic contaminants.
The dielectric system incorporates FEP, PTFE, creating a stable electrical environment around the signal conductors while helping minimize dielectric absorption and electrostatic effects.
A multi-layer shielding system combines aluminum Mylar, a tight-pitch silver-coated copper braided shield, and a dedicated copper ground conductor to provide effective EMI and RFI rejection while maintaining the low capacitance required for high-performance phono applications.
Each Highlands Tonearm Cable is hand assembled and precision terminated using premium Zavfino connectors.
The Highlands delivers an open, highly resolving, and naturally refined presentation, with precise imaging, fast transient response, extended detail, and a quiet background. Its pure silver Litz construction is designed to reveal subtle musical information while preserving the natural character and dynamics of the recording.
The Highlands Tonearm Cable brings together 99.9998% pure silver, precision Litz construction, advanced dielectric technology, and sophisticated shielding to provide a highly refined connection for demanding analogue playback systems.
