ArtisanBoochino Audiophile 2002 Connectors |
|
These Hand crafted RCA's from Bocchino Audio designed Exclusively by Carmine Boochino are exceptional in their performance. By replacing any RCA on any type of lead you will get an improvement in not only resolution of detail but a drop in the background noise level resulting in greater dynamic range . The brittleness associated with brass bronze or gunmetal RCA'S disappears completely with radical improvements in sound stage low and high level resolution super bass which is tight and deep mids and articulate crisp clear treble resulting in fatigue free listening of any kind of program material .
The BrendaTM range of connectors are all manufactured directly from solid Pure Copper Billet that has a purity of greater than 99.94% and Teflon as the main insulator of the centre pin
The BrendaTM B7.
The "Quintessential"
The BrendaTM B7 uses a signal pin that has been fabricated to accept wire for soldering.
A long track of nearly 9mm is located in the pin for securing the signal wire into place.
There are 2 'bays'
The first bay is for the signal and the second bay is for the return.
The BrendaTM B7 is 67mm long and 13mm in Diameter and uses Teflon as the main insulator.
The BrendaTM B7 will accommodate cable diameters up to 11.0 mm in diameter ( 7/16" diameter ).
The "Exquisite"
Also manufactured solely from Pure Copper and utilizing Teflon as its insulator this connector also has a 9mm long track in the signal pin for the signal wire and a double bridge at the rear for the return; the BrendaTM B9 secures itself to the RCA chassis receptor with a Pure Copper Claw Lock.
The B9 Claw Lock delivers the theoretical maximum RF shielding possible and the consequence is for improved micro-dynamics and exceptional musical fidelity by fully shielding the cable .
Nearly all other locking barrels from other manufacturers are manufactured from aluminum or brass and even steel, even plastic! but none are made from pure Copper.
The B9 Claw Lock clamps the claws of the BrendaTM B9 onto the equipment chassis socket which enables the B9 to have one of the firmest and most secure earthing
The BrendaTM B9 will accommodate interconnect cables up to 13.0mm ( 1/2ins ) in diameter and secures the cable into place with 3 set screws.
All solderable BrendaTM's are fabricated from Solid billet High Conductivity Oxygen Free Copper ( HCOFC); Pure Copper > 99.94%Cu!
All Solderable BrendaTM's use Teflon as the insulator between the polarities.
All Solderable BrendaTM's are electroplated with 15.0+ microns of pure Silver and then
1.0+ micron of Hard Gold Plate ( 23.5 Karat ).
All Solderable BrendaTM's' signal pins' are electroplated with a total of 3.0+ microns of Hard Gold Plate ( 23.5 Karat ).
Nominal impedance is 22.5 Ohms and signal pin resistance from where the cable is soldered to the appliance socket interface is less than 200 nano-ohms!

Sue Pechey from Listening Ridge Station near Crows Nest, in outback Queensland:
"You don't have to be a bat to tell the difference"!
"An improvement in clarity across the whole audio range"
Sue has a set of Brenda B7's with Silver Plated Oxygen Free Copper balanced cable optimized for single ended use
Russell Storey from Stones Sound Studio said the difference is in real distortion less dynamic music you now just want to keep listening too "you don't have to have million dollar ears to feel and hear the difference is excellent ".I highly recommend the BrendaTM RCA as an incredible upgrade to any audio /video system regardless of price.
