Atlas Element DIN (5 Pin 180) - Achromatic X RCA 1:2 Cable

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA Interconnect Enables Precision Signal Transfer

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA is a high-purity OFC copper interconnect designed to deliver superior signal fidelity when bridging DIN-equipped components with RCA-based systems. This audio cable employs a shielded four-core architecture and precision-engineered terminations to ensure consistent, wide-bandwidth transmission with minimal noise intrusion, even in electrically congested environments.

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA Features Shielded OFC Multicore Construction

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA is built on a robust multicore + screen topology using oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductors. This configuration maintains signal integrity over extended lengths while reducing resistive losses and susceptibility to EMI and RFI. The inclusion of a PEF (foamed polyethylene) dielectric further minimises dielectric losses, helping preserve transient detail and tonal accuracy across the frequency range.

The shielding is comprised of a tightly braided OFC copper layer, delivering excellent rejection of external interference without compromising flexibility. This makes the interconnect ideal for both professional rack setups and complex home audio systems where spatial constraints and noise sources often coexist.

Atlas Achromatic RCA and Locking DIN Enhance Termination Integrity

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA is terminated with Atlas’s latest-generation Achromatic X RCA connectors, employing a cold-weld solder-free design that eliminates the signal degradation commonly associated with traditional solder joints. The DIN connector, a 5-pin 180° locking variant, provides a mechanically secure and electrically stable interface compatible with a wide range of legacy and modern audio equipment.

The default DIN wiring follows a Ground (Pin 2), Left (Pin 3), and Right (Pin 5) configuration, with 4-pin and custom-wired 5-pin options available—particularly suited for integration with Naim systems. Customers with specific pinout requirements are encouraged to consult the manufacturer’s specifications or contact support for tailored termination configurations.

DIN–RCA Integration Delivers Natural Tonal Balance and Sonic Precision

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA achieves a coherent, neutral sound signature that complements both classic and modern audio components. By maintaining phase integrity and lowering inductive and capacitive reactance (with typical values of 35.97 pF/m capacitance and 0.964 µH/m inductance), this interconnect supports accurate imaging and dynamic articulation across a wide bandwidth.

Ideal for those upgrading from generic or entry-level cables, the Element series redefines sonic expectations within the essentials category—offering performance that often rivals more expensive interconnects in comparative testing.

Atlas Element Series Enhances Compatibility Across Connection Types

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA forms part of the Atlas Element Series, a curated line of precision-engineered interconnects developed for audiophiles seeking transparent performance without excessive cost. While this model bridges DIN to RCA, DIN–DIN and DIN–XLR variants are available on request, enabling seamless connection to source components, amplifiers, or DACs that use alternative terminations.

The series features Atlas’s proprietary cold-weld technology across all connector types, ensuring consistent performance and durability. The outer jacket, finished in a refined pearl white, provides both abrasion resistance and visual elegance for visible rack and desktop installations.

Atlas Element DIN Delivers the Performance Connection

Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA sits within Atlas’s Performance Level Upgrade category, offering essential enhancements in conductor purity, shielding topology, and connector design over baseline audio interconnects. Its role in resolving subtle detail and improving low-level signal transmission makes it an indispensable link in systems where DIN connectivity remains crucial.

Packaged in the brand’s compact Eurobox format, this interconnect arrives well-protected for both retail and installation-focused environments. For systems requiring high-performance DIN interfacing, the Element DIN–Achromatic X RCA delivers clarity, neutrality, and reliable mechanical connection—the performance connection your system demands.
