The Naim Hi-Line is a high-performance interconnect cable developed in parallel with our flagship CD555 player to surpass the already excellent standard cable in every respect. In developing the Hi-Line, we addressed every aspect of cable technology, as we wanted to improve the signal cable as a whole rather than just focusing on the conductors and insulation, as is common practice.

This led to the creation of the Hi-Line interconnect. It features the patented, decoupling Air-PLUG. Available in DIN or RCA versions, this plug prevents the transmission of vibrations picked up by the cable via airborne sound, thereby preserving the musicality of your system.

Features
• patented Air-PLUG prevents the transmission of vibrations
• 2 x 2 strands with 80 individual wires, PTFE and Kapton insulation, spiral shielded
• available in DIN/DIN, RCA/RCA, DIN/RCA and RCA/DIN versions

Technology
The decoupling design of the Air-PLUG prevents the transmission of vibrations originating from the connected equipment or picked up by the cable via airborne sound, thus preserving signal integrity. The connection between the plug and cable consists of interlocking rings that form a flexible, vibration-damping "caterpillar." The cable is elastically connected to the plug. The amount of metal in the Air-PLUG has been kept to a minimum to prevent electromagnetic effects. The design of the cable itself minimizes eddy currents, and a specially developed clamping mechanism prevents the cable from being crushed, which would otherwise alter its impedance.

The Hi-Line interconnect has been developed with the utmost care and with an eye towards optimal sound quality. It contains four strands, each with 80 individual wires. The strands are sheathed with PTFE, Kapton, and PTFE tape and twisted into pairs, which are then provided with a semi-conductive shield to prevent static charge. A braided copper shield is applied over this, followed by a layer of PTFE tape. Two such twisted pairs are finally wrapped in several layers of PTFE tape and finished with a rubber jacket. The result is a dual-channel cable in which the signal conductor and signal ground are kept at a defined distance from each other, which prevents field effects.
