Google er min venn og jeg fant litt om Eichmann

Bl.a.
“Electronic theory suggests that both conductors of a two-core cable (such as figure-eight cable) should be the same size and mass,” explains Eichmann. “The ratio minimizes reactance and skin effect problems by forcing the return conductor to respond more rapidly to signals transmitted through the signal conductor. This provides a balance of reactance and a control of skin effect to the extent that all frequencies appear to have a uniform speed and arrival time, analogous to the effect of wind on a speeding bullet. The faster the bullet, the less influence wind has on its movement.
“The result,” claims Eichmann, “is dramatically cleaner signal transfer, which translates to improved sound and image quality when applied to analogue and digital cables for audio/video applications. Cables incorporating this ratio provide superior performance in all systems-tube or solid state, analogue or digital.”
Application of the ratio is heard at its best in the eXpress 6 interconnect terminated with the Bullet Plug. Rob Woodland, Eichmann Technologies Managing Director, points out that the
“6” in eXpress 6 refers to the number of conductors, not the purity of the conventionally drawn, solid Oxygen Free Copper (OFC) wire, which is rated four/nines pure. Only one pair of the 22 AWG and 18 AWG (gauges approximate) conductors is connected. The four remaining wires-two pairs of the same diameter for the signal and return-are the heart of the eXpress 6 EMF Control System.
Woodland stresses that signal and return wire diameters are held
rigidly to a tolerance of .005mm, ensuring that a conductor pair reflecting the Eichmann Ratio will perform as designed- and perform, they do. More on that, anon.
