PSC+ CONDUCTORS: Solid conductors prevent strand interaction, a major source of cable distortion. Extremely high-purity Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries which exist within any metal conductor, nearly eliminating harshness and greatly increasing clarity compared to OFHC, OCC, 8N and other coppers.

TEFLON AIR-TUBES: Air is the best insulation because it does not absorb and later release energy. The Teflon Air-Tubes used in Panther have almost nothing but air around the PSC+ conductors.

DIELECTRIC-BIAS SYSTEM (patent pending): Greatly improved performance is made possible by a constant 36 volt charge on all Panther’s insulation. As 36 volts is far above the voltage of an audio signal, the result is considerably more transparency and dynamics than possible even from a cable in continuous use, with equipment that is never turned off. Because DBS battery packs are attached when Panther cables are assembled, Panther does not require an additional run-in period. Because there is no “load” on the single standard hardware-store battery, it will last for years. A test button and LED allow for occasional verification of battery performance.

TRIPLE BALANCED: The 3 conductors in "Triple Balanced" Panther cable insure that whether prepared with RCA or XLR plugs, the positive and negative signals have equally low distortion conducting paths. The 100% coverage shield is never used as an inferior audio conductor.

WELDED PLUGS: 8,000 amps is used to weld FPC Copper RCA plugs to Panther, creating a perfect connection alloy where the cable and plug meet. A thick direct-silver plating provides the best possible connection.
