Van Den Hul D-501 Hybrid Phono Interconnect Cable

The D-501 Hybrid Delivers Superior Transmission for Critical Audio Applications

The D-501 Hybrid is a high-performance analogue interconnect designed for discerning professionals and audiophiles. Featuring an innovative hybrid design with advanced shielding and high-grade materials, this cable excels in microphone setups, tone-arm connections, and professional mixing consoles. It is equally adept as a phono interconnect for linking premium turntables to phono amplifiers, ensuring pristine sound quality.

Conductor: High-Grade Silver-Plated OFC for Exceptional Signal Clarity

The D-501 Hybrid utilises two signal lines, each crafted from 19 strands of 0.1 mm ultra-pure Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) with a dense layer of high-purity silver plating. This combination delivers outstanding electrical conductivity and audio fidelity. The conductors are further insulated with durable cell-PE material, colour-coded for easy identification and damage-free stripping, even with fingernails.

Jacket: Matte Black Hulliflex® for Durability and Longevity

The cable features a matte black Hulliflex® jacket, offering superior protection against environmental stressors such as humidity, chemicals, and mechanical wear. This migration-free material ensures the cable maintains its performance integrity over extended use, making it ideal for demanding professional and studio environments.

Shielding: Double-Layered for Superior Noise Rejection

The double-shielded design combines a dense weave of 96 x 0.1 mm high-grade Matched Crystal OFC wires, silver-coated for enhanced conductivity, with a Linear Structured Carbon® (LSC) saturated helical tape. This advanced shielding minimises electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring an exceptionally clean and noise-free signal.
