Top-of-the-Range Balanced XLR Interconnect Cable Featuring PC-Triple C/EX Conductors
Music listened to through high-quality audio equipment enriches our lives and contributes to a more fulfilling lifestyle. But what kind of cable can elevate the performance of this equipment to its fullest potential?
SAEC’s answer to this question is the STRATOSPHERE series.
The STRATOSPHERE XR-1 is a balanced XLR interconnect cable based on the SL-1 RCA interconnect, which was introduced in February 2017 and has continued to receive outstanding acclaim and recognition.
Like the SL-1, the XR-1 uses a solid-core PC-Triple C conductor at its centre. Its outer conductors are made from PC-Triple C/EX, a material in which PC-Triple C is coated with high-purity 5N silver.
Its conductor architecture also adopts the same Super Stratum structure as the SL-1, with each of the outer conductors individually insulated. Combined with the characteristics of the PC-Triple C/EX conductors, this advanced construction delivers an unprecedentedly wide frequency response and an exceptionally quiet background.
PC-Triple C/EX offers even greater conductivity than PC-Triple C. Its use enables the XR-1 to transmit all the information contained within the signal accurately across the entire frequency range.
Delivering an exceptionally high level of resolution, the STRATOSPHERE XR-1 is a new-generation interconnect cable designed to elevate audio-cable performance to an entirely new level.
Features
- Super Stratum construction, further developing the Stratum design philosophy used in SAEC’s high-end cables
- Central section responsible for transmitting the midrange and lower frequencies
- 0.64 mm² solid-core PC-Triple C central conductor
- Central conductor insulated with PFA fluoropolymer, which offers a low relative dielectric constant and stable dielectric-loss characteristics across a wide frequency range
- Outer section designed to transmit high-frequency signals and harmonic components extending beyond the audible range
- Six 0.07 mm² PC-Triple C/EX conductors arranged concentrically around the central conductor in a Litz-wire configuration
- Each of the six outer conductors individually insulated with PFA
- PC-Triple C/EX conductors providing improved transmission efficiency at high frequencies affected by the skin effect
- Silk filler offering low and stable capacitance to minimise energy loss across a wide frequency range
- SAEC original high-quality XLR connectors

FAQs
Please read our FAQ before sending us a message.
How is my order processed ?
Once we have received your order and your payment, we issue you an invoice that will be mailed to you with a reference number for your order. Once your order is ready : it will be dispatched to you with insurance and tracking number.
Which payment methos are available in the Online Shop ?
You can choose between Paypal, bank transfer or Credit Card. Please take in consideration that payment via bank transfer will slightly delay the processing of your order as we have to receive your funds on our bank account to confirm your order.
Why are there different estimated delays prior to sending for some of the products
One of the politics of Ana Mighty Sound is that every order is unique and made for a single customer. You will find next to each item an estimated delay prior to delivery. We will do our best to fulfill it before this delay (and most of the time we do).
Please keep in mind that we are a 100% human company working all over the Old World (Europe) and that we do commit to deliver you the best made / best quality product available, and to insure that : this can take some time.
Of course… some of our products are in stock !
Can I specify a courrier for my order ?
Yes you can ! Just drop us a line in the « additional remarks » of your mail order. This may add additional fees to your order. We can work with DHL, TNT, FedEX, UPS, French La Poste or Chronopost.
What if I have received the wrong item ?
In the very unlikely case this would happen just send us a photo of what you received and we will send you a courrier to fetch the item back. Once we have checked it out, we will send you the correct item.
My items are not up to specifications, what should I do ?
This is highly improbable as we use the most modern techniques to insure that our products are up to specs. In fact we even have a dedicated person checking that every single item is in perfect condition prior to shipping. Of course it can happen, but we doubt it seriously. In any case if you were bothered by something : just send us an email and we will sort it out with you.
I am very happy/disappointed with my order and I want you to know it ?
Please do not hesitate to drop us a line and we will be always happy to answer all of your requests. Our aim is your complete satisfaction.
