Description

PGS-V15-V16 is a significantly updated and improved version* of our acclaimed "original" PGS.

From the very beginning of PGS (early 2000’s ) the signal carrying conductor - i.e. the conductor, connecting the center pins of the RCAs, and pins 2 and 3 of the XLRs – are made of gold, and nothing else. Hence its name: Pure Gold Signal.

The “return” path (ground path) – i.e. the outer part of the RCA, and the ground pin in its balanced configuration (pin 1 of the XLR) – are connected together via copper braid (shield). Using only gold for the return path is not a good idea: we need high conductivity in the return path, plus we need shielding effect, and if this braid were made of gold, it would have been prohibitively expensive, without any sonic benefit.

PGS V15 and V16 is the same, and instead of pure 99.99% gold (which was used in previous PGS) – make use of a gold-based alloy, which is sonically superior, according to our tests: pure gold sounds “sweet”, but soft, tube-like - which offered an obvious benefit for DIGITAL sources, because it reduced the digital harshness (audibility of digital artefacts, caused of less-then-perfect digital-to-analog conversion), and thus made digital sources sound more “analog”.

With today’s – more advanced digital-to-analog converters - our new alloy, used in the PGS V15 and V16 - has advantages, as it offers better treble extension (reduced effect of masking digital artifacts).

The PGS V16 is thicker (larger in diameter) than before (i.e PGS-08), making the V16 cables more robust, and reducing the capacitance by approximately 20%.

The inside geometry is the same as before.

But the signal wire is different: a proprietary layered alloy (gold-Molybdenum-Ruthenium), and the new PGS V16, while retaining the original “sweet” sound (related to the gold conductive material) - is now closer to “neutral” sound, as the new allow mostly removes the coloration in the upper-treble, which has been a single small drawback of the pure gold wire used in the “original” PGS and the PGS-08.
