New!!! FIDELITY EUROPA
Reference Fidelity Components is pleased to announce the launch of its new budget interconnect, the “Fidelity Europa”. I felt that there should be a high quality alternative to the usual budget cables available, so have been working on a new very affordable interconnect that wont break the bank. What sets this one apart from much of the competition, is that whilst the price may be budget, the specification certainly isn’t!
Features:
Low capacitance cable: 0.6mm pure OFC signal cable encased in special low dielectric constant foamed insulation. This helps maintain a low capacitance so that treble isn't rolled off and ensures good detail retrieval;
Inner anti-static graphite impregnated polypropylene shield and dense spiral OFC outer shield. The shielding ensures that RFI and EMI are kept out of the signal for a good signal to noise ratio and freedom from interference. The outer shield is low impedance having a much greater sectional srea than the signal conductor, further enhancing S/N ratio;
Jacket construction: inner - an extremely flexible and lightweight jacket which in turn is encased in a polypropylene silk with a final dense cloth braid outer bringing a luxury and quality feel to the cable. It’s remarkably lightweight and flexible which ensures minimum stress on contact points when plugged into kit and ease of routing.
Connectors are remarkable quality considering the budget as I refuse to use anything other than high quality connectors on all of RFC’s cables. In this case, the Fidelity Europa features high quality QED PA2 RCA connectors, heavily gold plated and finished in an attractive silver coating to the outer barrels. Ground collars, unlike most budget connectors are parallel and close fitting for good electrical contact and feature rounded edges meaning they won’t scratch and wear your socket platings way.

Priced at just £40 per 1m stereo pair!
If that isn't remarkable enough, here's the great offer RFC is making:
Buy a set of Fidelity Europa IC's and if you trade up to the Reference Mercury or Reference Venus within 12 months of purchase, I'll give you 50% cash back on the Europa's!
That means you get them for just £20 :eek:
