Hosa Technology Introduces Second Generation Elite Series Guitar Cables

Nylon webbing over PVC jackets and NeutrikR connectors upgrade performance

Buena Park, CA - April 2012. Hosa Technology, the leading innovator of

analog and digital connectivity solutions for the modern musician, is

pleased to introduce a significant upgrade of the company's popular Elite

Series guitar cables. Now available with Neutrik X-Series straight and

right-angle plugs plus a new nylon webbing over the cable's PVC jacket, the

Elite Series takes advantage of the latest technological advances and

state-of-the-art manufacturing processes to deliver performance attributes

that are every bit on par-if not superior to-more costly boutique cables.

A clean, reliable connection to one's signal processing and amplification

chain is of paramount concern for any guitarist or bassist and the Hosa

Elite Series guitar cable makes this a top priority. The Neutrik X-Series

connectors employ precision machined, one-piece contacts designed to provide

both signal integrity and structural rigidity. The connectors feature

gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance and superior signal transfer

and utilize a zinc die-cast housing for rock-solid reliability. With a

polyurethane gland to prevent cable kinking for longer cable life and

chuck-type strain relief for maximum cable retention combined with a sleek,

ergonomic design for easy handling, these connectors deliver the ideal blend

of performance and long-term reliability.

Of course, the cable's quality is an equally important contributor to

overall audio performance and here, too, the Hosa Elite Series guitar cable

excels. These cables use 20 AWG Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) conductors that

reduce resistance in order to facilitate maximum signal transfer.

Polyethylene dielectrics reduce capacitance for crystal-clear high-frequency

transmission while conductive PVC reduces handling noise. Further, a 95\% OFC

braided shield is employed for noise-free signal transmission. Take all this

and complete it with nylon webbing over the cable's PVC jacket, which is

cut- and abrasion-resistant for a lifetime of trouble-free use, and the end

result is a cable musicians can place their trust in.

Jonathan Pusey, Hosa Technology's Vice President of Sales and Marketing,

commented on the second generation Elite Series guitar cable. "We spared no

expense in the development of this cable and the enhancements made to this

line are significant," said Pusey. "With a rich feature set and a highly

competitive price, we are extremely proud of this product line. The Elite

Series has always been an exceptional product and now, with the addition of

Neutrik connectors and abrasion-resistant nylon webbing for a lifetime of

dynamic, noise-free sound quality, I'm confident guitarists everywhere will

find much to like."

Hosa Technology's Elite Series cables range in price from an MSRP of $44.10

(for a 5-foot length straight to same) through $85.65 (for a 25-foot

straight to right angle model). These cables are also available in 6-inch,

1-foot, and 1.5-foot patch cord lengths, with MSRP pricing ranging from

$38.85 - $40.95. The Elite Series is slated to become available late Q2,

2012.
