Digital Links

The Ultra Extreme Gen. II Digital Link continues not only our long tradition for manufacturing excellent digital interconnects, it brings the performance one huge step closer to the breathtaking realism of live-music.
It is not only an audible difference you will experience with these Digital Links, it is something else: your brain 'transports' you directly to a live-concert or into a symphony hall rather than into a 'virtual audio space'.
It has not only been our goal to touch your ears, we let you feel the emotions encapsulated in your recordings.

Heavens Gate Audio is the first company in the audio industry using OHNO casting Silver-Gold conductors and the Ultra Extreme Gen. II Digital Links are truly the finest digital interconnects money can buy.

The 75 Ohm version uses a massive solid core conductor to minimize the reflections within the conductor up to 1.5 GHz. Right after the conductor is drawn the surface is polished under an oxygen-free atmosphere to avoid any kind of oxidation or air-traps.

The 110 Ohm Version uses two litz-constructed conductors and allows a reflection free transmission of digital signals up to 1.9 GHz. Each litz has 36 individual conductors drilled to a special helix.

The next step is the insulation of the conductors. For the lower priced series PTFE (Teflon®) or PFA are used. For the Ultra Extreme Gen. II Series we have gone one step further. Whenever a conductor is insulated, this insulation stores and releases a part of the signal energy, resulting in audible distortion. To insulate the conductors used for this Reference Series Heavens Gate Audio invented a new material: Air-Foam-PFA®
This material is as close to "air" as possible, it stores very low energy of the signal and releases this energy extremely fast in a very linear way. In addition, Air-Foam-PFA has excellent damping properties to minimize the mechanical resonances.

A total of five different shields, each one optimized for the diameter it is used for and separated by insulation build the Active-Shield-Matrix to protect the signal against any noise pollution such as RFI, EMI and ESI*.

The Ultra Extreme Gen. II Digital Link is terminated with heavy non-magnetic connectors (rhodium over silver plated pure copper).
Careful and computer-controlled pulse welding techniques prevent any change of the conductor's structure when terminated to the plugs.

The Ultra Extreme Gen. II Series is entirely made by hand by a small number of special trained technicians with painstaking care, and measured over and over for uniform performance as it is built.

These fine audio jewels will bring years of reliability and emotional satisfaction and are covered by a lifetime warranty to the original owner.

Speaker Links

Designed to couple the output of the very best power amplifiers to state-of-the-art loudspeakers, the Ultra Extreme Gen. II Speaker Link will bring you closer to the music than any other loudspeaker cable.
It is the most neutral and accurate loudspeaker cable we have ever built. Take this as a fact.

The construction of this Speaker Link relies on the highest grade of materials, shielding technologies, low absorption dielectric and exceptional workmanship.
The 'center' is comprised of 16 massive, OHNO casting Silver-Gold conductors carefully aligned into a 4x4-Matrix. Each conductor has a polished surface and is insulated using our proprietary Air-Foam-PFA®. This combination allows us to control the inductance, capacitance and resistance of the cable resulting in a full-bodied natural sound while maintaining excellent high frequency characteristics.
A total of five shields, each one optimized for the diameter it is used for and separated by insulation build the Active-Shield-Matrix to protect the signal against any noise pollution such as EMI, ESI and RFI.
The Ultra Extreme Gen. II Speaker Link is terminated with heavy non-magnetic rhodium-over-silver plated copper connectors: 7/9mm Spades or Banana plugs. Careful pulse welding techniques at a low temperature prevent any change of the conductor's structure when terminated to the plugs.
