Product Description

Grimm Audio SQM RCA Phono Interconnects

Looking for a cable that ends your restless quest? Science says you should minimize microphony and maximize shielding. Through a rational approach, cable design is liberated from the mistiness. SQM is the outcome of the ultimate execution of this strategy. This results in an unrivalled transparency. 

SQM takes the Grimm Audio cable philosophy of low microphonics and proper shielding to the next level. The resulting sound quality is a serious step up from Grimm’s already excellent TPR cable. 

“The way it treats reverb is astonishing, dynamics are greater and music flows in a disarmingly natural way.”

Let’s have a look inside SQM. Low microphony requires a meticulous choice of materials to minimize friction induced noise, plus a mechanically tight physical construction. SQM goes a step further here by using carbon doted sheaths around individual conductors and beneath the braided screen. To optimize immunity from electric and magnetic fields the screens are tightly woven (no ‘see-through’) and the conductors are well twisted. Magnetic shielding is further improved by the so called ‘star-quad’ construction after which “Star Quad Master” was named. 

SQM is a balanced cable and we offer it with Neutrik gold plated XLRs. If unbalanced connections are required, SQM is terminated with superior WBT NextGen RCAs guaranteeing a solid audio contact. In our unbalanced assemblies special care is taken in that the function of the screen is restricted to what it should do (screening against hum and rf) and does not interfere in any way with the optimal magnetic shielding of the star quad system inside.

FEATURES:

  • Star Quad wire layout for optimal suppression of magnetic fields
  • minimal microphony by means of carbon doted sheaths
  • tightly woven screen for optimal shielding
  • balanced version has Neutrik XLRs
  • unbalanced version has WBT NextGen RCAs

Grimm Audio

Grimm Audio was founded in 2004 and is based in Veldhoven, The Netherlands. Our initial aim was to combine the mastery of the greatest minds of audio experts, and we continue to do so. All Grimm Audio products carry the joined insight of well known scientists in the fields of audio electronics, acoustics and physics, fused with an intuition built on the experience of many years of focussed listening, professional engineering and audiophile enthusiasm.

Our first product, the AD1 discrete 1 bit analog to digital converter, is still the benchmark for sound quality. A classical music label like Channel Classics has reinforced its reputation using this converter. While refining the AD1’s clock circuitry, the CC1 master clock was developed, that is measured as being the lowest jitter master clock in the professional audio industry. It serves as the digital heart beat of many studios around the world.

For the famous Wisseloord studios in the Netherlands the TPR series of studio cables was developed, offering neutral performance for an affordable price. Next came the flagship product of Grimm Audio, the LS1 playback system. Critically acclaimed as “the world’s best complete audio system” it serves as a reference in a variety of studios and as a source for musical enjoyment in many living rooms. The MU1 Music Player takes its performance yet one step further up, leading on a new road to perfection. And the MU2 Streaming DAC is the next milestone on that road.

Grimm Audio uses the highest level of technical and audiophile knowledge to build audio equipment that has no equivalent.
