Ecosse Reference Cables is an established brand known throughout the music–loving hi-fi world for its price-conscience ethics, build quality, customer –care and above all, integrity.
However, little did they know in 1997, the revolution they would create when they introduced Monocrystal ™ conductor technology to the hi-fi public-and the effect it would have on audiophiles worldwide.
Amongst others, the MS2.3 loudspeaker cables has achieved the dizzying heights of universal acclaim; respected by all and bettered by none. This multi-strand concentric-lay conductor, with polypropylene insulation is the de rigueur cable for discerning audiophiles. The MS2.4 at its pricepoint is the finest Monocrystal™ copper conductor loudspeaker cable they produce.
The MS2.4 consists of 270 copper strands surrounded by large OD ultra-low-loss, Hi-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) insulation all in a bed of thick cotton damping. Sheathing this precise helix they have added a unique layer of fabric-a jacket if you will-which they term ‘Vibrakill’™ which virtually eliminates the effects of microphony and contributes greatly to the preservation of the accuracy and integrity of the signal. Then, to further offer protection from extraneous EMI and ESI they bind the whole in a layer of tinned copper. At this point they can confirm a measured shield intensity of 98%!

Polyolefin elastomers (or POEs) are a relatively new class of polymers that have emerged from recent advances in metallocene polymerisation catalysts. Polyolefin elastomers are an excellent impact modifier for plastics, and offer unique performance capabilities for compounded products.
Polyolefin elastomers are superior to PVC because they:
•Provide superior elasticity, toughness and low temperature ductility
•Designed to optimise processing and end-user performance
•Are saturated polymers providing excellent thermal stability and UV resistance
•Totally recyclable.
