All cables connected to a HiFi System act as transmitting/receiving antennas. Also the length of the cable directly affects its ability to either reject or absorb really high frequencies. Multiple boundaries present in connectors; materials and their mass significantly impede and impair a “straight signal path”
Therefore adapting the connectors according to the design of the cable as well as paying close attention to cable lengths is crucial to obtaining optimum result.
Entreq manufacture their own proprietary contacts built upon a wooden framework. (A material that is completely non-magnetic and non-conductive and which does not affect the signal)
For the contact surfaces themselves, we use pure silver/cooper, where silver is used for positive and copper for negative.
All Entreq signal & loudspeaker cables feature, EEDS (External Earth Drain System).
Introducing the all new cable ranges from Entreq: Primer, Argo, Triton & Olympus.
All new pricing can be found under Description
To achieve the optimal performance from both RCA & XLR signal cable’s they require a ground cable for L & R channels, as well as a ground box solution to connect to. The appropriate ground cables & ground box should be chosen as carefully as the interconnects themselves. Careful matching will optimize the level of performance for each individual system.
Brand: Entreq
Model Name/Number: Primer, Argo, Triton & Olympus
Product Information:
Primer Range.
Considered the entry level to Entreqs range of Signal cables however there is nothing entry level regards the performance. Primer Pro cables incorporate almost all the aspects of Entreqs knowledge and experience found in their far more expensive ranges of products. They therefore offer a musical flow, engagement and involvement that most products at many times the price simply cannot match. If natural tone, musicality and incredible value for money is what you are after then the Primer products are for you!

Olympus Range
Please note that the OlympUs range of cables all come with captive EEDS ground cables which are 0.27m long and terminated in a an Entreq Infinity Hook. This length of EEDS ground cable is the optimal for the performance for the flagship range however it can be extended by the inclusion of a Himple adaptor and a longer EEDS Ertha cable ( please see the Himple and the selection on Ertha cables on page 1 of the price list). The OlympUs cables are built to order and generally afford a 4-6 week delivery time.

Choice HiFi- Background and Overview of Entreq Grounding and Cable Solutions
Entreq takes a unique and comprehensive approach to cable design. Tackling the often-overlooked factors affecting cable and therefore equipment performance.
The premise of their design philosophy is based on solving effects know to the Aerospace and other high tech industries but never before systematically applied to high-end audio cables.
These are:
1. Our equipment is being constantly bombarded by RF and EMI radiation.
2. Modern homes and their electrical supplies are plagued by switching power supplies and heavy appliances.
3. All cables act as sending and receiving antennas
4. Connectors have to be adapted according to the signal being processed. The cable, signal/mass interface is crucial to accurate signal transmission.
5. A current traveling in a wire creates a magnetic field.
6. Careful attention has to be paid to ground planes. (In space of course there is no “earth” so an artificial ground has to be created)
Entreq has uniquely designed and developed a whole system approach to tackle and address each of the above issues, by doing the following:
1. Separate cable for positive and negative signals.
2. Asymmetrical design.
3. Positive and negative cables are spun clockwise and anticlockwise respectively.
4. Adapted lengths to minimise the antenna effect.
5. DIC Dedicated contacts so the area and the mass of the contacts correspond to
the cable.
6. Wood in the contact framework – Non-magnetic and non-conductive.
7. Only pure copper and silver in the signal paths. No alloys.
8. Drain wire instead of shielding in order to connect to a pure earth point (External Earth Drain System).
9. Cotton covering instead of synthetic materials.
10. EEDS External Earth Drain System.
The result is that Entreq cables and grounding solutions maintain the integrity and purity of the audio signal, resulting in:
1. Lower noise floor
2. More detail
3. Darker backgrounds
4. Increased dynamic range
5. Better soundstage
6. A more natural tonal quality
7. Loss of leading edge glare
8. More and better defined bass
Entreq solution can be applied either individually or as part of a complete system approach. The more you do the better the result.
