RCCP - cutting edge of connectors
When we began to see the great results that the new MARC© conductor could give, our research focused on developing connectors that could enhance the new cables we were developing. It is well known that the connector is a pivotal point in audio signal transmission, where the use of conventional brass connectors, can cause a connection to lose as much as 50 percent of its performance, so we put the project called RCCP in the pipeline right away, as our goal was to build new connectors with pure copper contacts.
The challenge was particularly daunting as it involved redesigning all the connectors taking into account the increased softness of copper, which is not suitable for connector manufacturing because the contact points are often very thin and can be prone to bending.
After more than two years of work, we can assert that Ricable is the first cable manufacturer to make an entire series of Hi-Fi Audio cables (series Invictus) with all-copper conn ectors, and for the two smaller series, the connectors are all-copper in most products, except for a few exceptions, where it was necessary to use a Copper-Tellurium alloy, which in any case is a far superior conductor to the brass that is generally used in Hi-Fi connectors.
All connectors in the Magnus, Dedalus and Invictus series are designed and engineered by us, and are individually manufactured using a special CNC technique repurposed to use copper as raw material.
Parts that are not made of copper, such as shells and plastic components, all adopt solutions designed to improve and safeguard contact points.
The result of this painstaking work is impressive. From tests we conducted, there was an improvement in the transmission of electrical parameters of more than 40 percent over brass connectors, and this resulted in a marked improvement in listening as well.
