The Eichmann Bullet plug
The
Bullet Plug® connector is a totally new
approach to RCA/phono connection where every
aspect of electron flow has been considered.
The
result is an RCA compatible connector that can
improve the performance of any analogue, digital
or video cable - often dramatically. If you’re
looking for connector jewelery this plug may
not be for you. However if your objective is
ultimate performance quality read on…
What you should know about RCA plugs:
The cables you now use are made from high-conductive,
annealed copper or silver wires - terminated
with low-conductive, gold-plated brass RCA plugs.
Annealed
copper has a conductivity rating of at least
100% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard).
Brass has a conductivity rating of 28% IACS.
Because
of this low conductivity, we believe brass RCA
plugs act as a bottleneck to electron flow.
Brass plugs may also cause phase errors and
smearing through mass and skin effect.
Another
problem is the return/ground collar - which
can impair electron flow through:
Eddy
current distortion - as electrons proceed to
and from the RCA socket into the collar through
multiple contact points.
Capacitive distortion - where gaps exist between
the socket and collar.
Micro-arcing distortion - an electrical short
that can occur where gaps exist between the
socket and collar.
Additionally, RCA plugs are coaxial designs
(metal return/ground surrounding signal pin)
that have an impedance effect. This impedance
can have a varied and adverse impact on performance.
The
solution:
The new Bullet Plug® connector solves the
problems of standard and audiophile grade RCA
plugs by providing a faster, cleaner signal
of high purity and detail.
To
achieve this we have designed the Bullet Plug®
as a miniature cable - with high-conductive,
gold-plated tellurium copper (CuTe) or 4-nines
pure silver pins providing a rapid transfer
of electrons to/from RCA sockets.
In
our patent-pending design, the return pin of
the Bullet Plug® makes single point contact
with the side wall of an RCA socket - concentrating
electrons to one point thereby reducing distortion.
This is a similar approach to “star earthing”
used in amplifiers.
The perfect RCA connector for 75-Ohm
Digital and Video cables.
Standard
RCA plugs may interfere with the true 75-Ohm
impedance of your digital and video cables due
to impedance variation.
The
Bullet Plug® has negligible impedance and
takes on the true 75-Ohm impedance (or any other
impedance value) of the cable itself.
