AST
ultrapure silver conductors
- Expansive, crystal clear sound that is smooth and detailed with no brightness and with a total absence of grain.
- Unique, optimized true 6N+ silver metallurgy backed by world-class R&D and production teams.
- Bare and Enameled silver wire solutions for the audio industry.
- Wherever installed, AST conductors will elevate sound reproduction to a whole new level
Superlative signal transmission and audio reproduction
Applying innovative approaches in silver processing, and through extensive R&D, we have developed a type of silver conductor that delivers a new experience in audio transmission, bringing a unique level of detail, transparency, harmonic richness and total lack of harshness.
Wherever these wires are used in an audio stream, within equipment, as internal wiring or in cables, there is a clearly audible and very impressive improvement in performance and in the musicality of the audio experience. Even a short length makes an impressive difference.
We can guarantee that the results achieved using our conductors will have the potential to place an audio product among the very best performers in the industry.
AST conductors are being used with great success as:
- Internal wiring in high-end audio equipment
- Conductors in high-performance cables
- Microphone and signal cables in recording studios
- Windings in transformers, output, interstage and phono step-up
by manufacturers and demanding DIYers.
Innovation in Silver metallurgy
Metallurgy is a field in which R&D must be supported with continuous testing and innovative thinking. The non-linear nature of metal behavior is a challenging complexity.
AST conductors have been developed with the cooperation of 2 world-class technical partners:
- a leading metallurgical laboratory (Elkeme SA)
- a dynamic cable and wire producer (Cablel Wires SA)
AST conductors
- Utilize true 6N+ ultrapure silver not generally available in the markets.
- Cast it with the latest in oxide-free technology while controlling the metal structure.
- Draw it and process it through optimized thermo-mechanical protocols.
- Enamel it using a dedicated high-tech wire coating line.
- Applying stringent total quality control in all steps.
- Can provide purity certificates from accredited research laboratories
In a league of their own
In parallel with technical R&D, AST embarked on a 5-year-long audio assessment project to produce the best results for the most demanding audio listeners. AST products offer a completely different level of performance compared to 99,99% silver wires and cables. They also clearly surpass silver/gold alloy conductors. AST conductors simply raise the level of audio experience to new heights.
