Wire is shown without Teflon tubing, when ordered wire comes threaded thru Teflon tubing. Maximum continuous length 12 feet.
about our wire
We are one of only a handful of audio companies who manufacture their own raw wire. From the selection of precious metal casting shot, to drawing of the wire, to polishing and gold plating all fabrication stays in our family’s hands. Because of this we keep the cost of manufacturing down and can experiment with new wire styles without the huge cost of large minimum orders. If you find a need for a special wire gauge we do not offer feel free to call for a quote, you may be pleasantly surprised at the price..Visit and like us on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Aural-Harmony/210330569059603
about this design
You are looking at our DeepSpace Gold Alloy with Graphene Rectangular solid core wire it is approx. 20ga. wide and 29ga. thick. (0.81mm X 0.28mm) The wire is used in our DeepSpace Waveguide interconnect and has been used as internal hookup wire. The wire is offered in 1 inch (25.4 mm ) increments. I've chosen small increments since many people only need 5 or 6 inches for example as rewire for pre or amp inputs. When using for power supplies this wire is an electrical equal to a solid core 24ga (.51 mm) diameter wire. We have this wire manufactured specifically for us using our own formulation...we are the sole worldwide distributors.

I have the DeepSpace tonearm wires and interconnects in my system, the best sounding wires I have ever heard. I have a Walker turntable and rewired it with DeepSpace wire, what a mind blowing experience. My turntable was already sounding better than most out there but after the change...scary good, so good that I contacted Walker Audio and let them know of my findings so I decided to try the interconnects if you think $3000.00 is lot of money, and it is, interconnects that can compare cost three to four times more. I have been in this hobby for over forty years. I have heard this level of interconnects but at a price that makes the price of the DeepSpace seem cheap and in many ways the DeepSpace sounds better to me. Happy listening. Joe Tucker
You asked me if I would mind if you posted my feedback on your DeepSpace wire so here it is. This stuff is crazy. I wanted to try this wire ever since I heard about it. I have a Tortuga Audio LDR2, love it, looks and sounds great. I love to tinker and since I could always change the wire back to original if I didn't like the change I plowed ahead. First thing was to follow your advice, I removed each individual wire, marked the wire and mark the spots it was removed from so I could replace the original if I didn't like the change. Long story short, I loved the LDR2 before, I love it even more now. I am hearing this liquid music coming out of my speakers I just plain did not hear before. I'm feeling this stuff. You wrote about about pace rhythm and timing. I get it now, I never really did understand that term until I heard it and your DeepSpace wire made that happen. Dude, the funniest thing about this whole thing is I bought the LDR2 from a friend who wanted a different Pre, now he wants his LDR2 back!! I win. Todd Raven Los Angeles, Ca.
Mr. Don it is my pleasure to offer you my opinion on the DeepSpace interconnect. Music is a very special part of my life, I have been involved in the enjoyment of reproduced performances in my house for almost three decades. Music removes the busy life of Hong Kong and quiets my day. The equipment I own and have your DeepSpace interconnects attached to are the Atma-Sphere MA-2 Mk 3.1 mono blocks driving the Wilson Audio Sophia 2 speakers. I say this not to brag about my system but to tender congratulations on your success with the DeepSpace interconnect, they have moved my music enjoyment to another realm.

"A pair of Aural Harmony Cryo Gold Alloy Sonnet-R interconnect for sale at USD 125.00 NEW!" That's the email I received from a past customer. That's below my cost to build this cable. Then I looked more closely. The RCA ends were of a nondescript make, the label I use did not have the same type script for the "Aural Harmony" logo and my handwriting on the label for the model was not my handwriting. My friend emailed the seller and asked for a closer picture and also asked to have the seller remove the RCA cover to see the solder work. The seller responded that his camera was not working but assured my friend that it was real. I was at once irritated and flattered. It was a counterfeit. This is not the first time this has happened to me it is actually the fifth. I am very surprised someone would target my products, I am a very small footprint in the audio world compared to companies like AudioQuest, Kimber Kable, and Cardas to name only a few. In a recent search I found Kimber Kable pk10 Palladian power cable on Alibaba.com and Cardas SRCA RCA connectors on Globalsources.com. These are for sure fake. I've had conversations with Ray Kimber in the past and he is a major force in the fight against counterfeit products. Likewise, Cardas takes a very hard stance on fake products. So, I am now offering a Certificate of Authenticity at no charge for every wire product I sell. If you have a product purchased from us starting May 2015 I will send you a Certificate of Authenticity free of charge, email me and give me date of purchase and I will verify. For older products please contact me for further details. If you plan to buy a used Aural Harmony product contact me and I will attempt to verify the authenticity of the product by contacting the original buyer.
DeepSpace Cryo Gold Alloy Wire with Graphene or The Disappearing Wire Act
The DeepSpace Cryo Gold Alloy with Graphene (henceforth known as DeepSpace wire) takes up where the Cryo Gold Alloy wire leaves off, literally. After a 150 - 200 hour break-in with the Cryo Gold Alloy wire, the same sonic character is heard with the Deep Space wire at first use without break-in. This is the first new wire we have introduced since the Cryo Gold Alloy wire was unveiled in 2003. The DeepSpace wire idea started out as a kind of "what if" project.
99.999% Pure Silver and 24kt Gold
Knowing how the original Cryo Gold Alloy turned out by using three metals Silver, Copper, and Gold we modified that idea and upped the game by removing all the Copper (or reducing it to an absolute negligible amount) using only 99.999% Pure Silver and adding a higher percentage of 24kt Gold, smelting those two metals together and drawing the result into wire form. Ironically, the Pure Silver and 24kt Gold blend did not sound as musical as our Cryo Gold Alloy wire. The sound was close, but not like the original Cryo Gold Alloy wire with Copper in the mix. We even changed the percentage of Gold to possibly make up for the subtraction of Copper, it just was not as musical, however it had a signature that had a purity and clarity (better than even our Cryo Gold Alloy wire) that could not be ignored. As a hobby I cook and also am a bread baker, when preparing a recipe leaving out or substituting an ingredient, even the smallest amount, can totally change the flavor profile. I consider the designing of a wire a recipe that needs to be tweaked to bring out it's best. We decided we were on the right track but something had to be done to make this new wire perform as we wanted. After experimenting with different coatings and metal blends we decided to try something REALLY new, this epiphany was 18 months in the making. The result: Graphene. Step One complete, onto Step Two.
(see the Chemical Analysis of our Silver here: https://www.facebook.com/210330569059603/photos/a.211115742314419.49230.210330569059603/974159882676664/?type=3&theater)
Graphene
Enter Graphene, what is it? Here is a description paraphrased from "Explain That Stuff" I found the article by Chris Woodford to be the most informative without bogging one down with too much technical info.
Graphene is an amazingly pure substance based on Carbon, thanks largely to its simple, orderly structure based on tight, regular, atomic bonding, Carbon is a nonmetal, so you might expect graphene to be one too. In fact, it behaves much more like a metal. If the 20th century was the age of plastics, the 21st century seems set to become the age of graphene. Science journals have been running out of superlatives for this wondrous stuff: it's just about the lightest, strongest, thinnest, best heat- and electricity- conducting material ever discovered. Peer inside lots of familiar solid materials (including most metals like our Silver and Gold used in our drawn wire) and you'll find what's known as a crystal lattice (another name for a solid's internal, crystalline structure): lots of atoms arranged in a regular, endlessly repeating, three-dimensional structure a bit like an atomic climbing frame, only instead of bars there are invisible bonds between the atoms that hold them together. The remarkable thing about graphene is that its crystalline structure is two-dimensional. In other words, the atoms in graphene are laid out flat, like billiard balls on a table. Each layer is made of hexagonal "rings" of carbon (like lots of benzene rings connected together, only with more carbon atoms replacing the hydrogen atoms around the edge), giving a honeycomb-like appearance. Since the layers themselves are just one atom high, you'd need a stack of about three million of these layers to make graphene 1mm thick!
Graphene Electrical Characteristics
Materials that conduct heat very well also conduct electricity well, because both processes transport energy using electrons. The flat, hexagonal lattice of graphene offers relatively little resistance to electrons, which zip through it quickly and easily, carrying electricity better than even superb conductors such as copper and almost as well as superconductors (unlike superconductors, which need to be cooled to low temperatures, graphene's remarkable conductivity works even at room temperature). Scientifically speaking, we could say that the electrons in graphene have a longer mean free path than they have in any other material in other words, they can go further without crashing into things or otherwise being interrupted, which is what causes electrical resistance.
Putting This To Practical Use
At the time of this writing (May 2016) Graphene is still very expensive. Retail price is about USD 300.00 per gram or USD 8400.00 for one ounce. The good news is Graphene powder or in our case flake (or platelets which are similar to sheets), goes a very long way. As a coating for example using our 32.4ga. tonearm wire, one ounce of Graphene will coat thousands of feet of wire. The Deep Space wire finalized is a product that consists of 99.999% Pure Silver, 24kt. Gold blended and drawn then coated with Graphene platelets at a thickness of approximately 5 monolayers thick. Over the Graphene is a plating of 24kt. Gold.
"We Have Signs of Life" or "I Finally have Pace, Rhythm, and Timing"
As good as the Cryo Gold Alloy wire is, and it is very good, many people who have purchased the Cryo Gold Alloy in bulk form, tonearm wire sets, and interconnects call it their new reference. The DeepSpace wire takes the origin of our original Cryo Gold Alloy wire and pushes performance to a higher realm. I have heard and read numerous times how a wire or interconnect was "neutral" and "transparent", fifty percent of the time the wire was either dull sounding or very bright. To some " dull " sounding wire is neutral due to it's lack of ANYTHING emotional, to others very "bright" sounding wire is transparent due to the impression that a listener can hear more of the music. Bright sounding wire is doing nothing more than accentuating the top end of the audio spectrum making it sound exciting but fatiguing to the listener, neither one of these conditions make a wire listenable for enjoyment. A wire or interconnect needs to sonically disappear and also convey accurately what the equipment is sending it to be considered neutral. The second requirement is for the wire to convey the pace, rhythm, and timing of the recorded music (assuming the equipment is able to capture and convey that) This is probably the hardest part of design of an interconnect and formulation of the raw wire. PRaT is what truly gives recorded music life. We have accomplished this with the DeepSpace wire.
I know the Graphene is responsible as the final ingredient in the recipe but, and this is hard for me to admit, I don't know what it is doing. As Chris Woodford writes, Carbon is a nonmetal, so you might expect graphene to be one too. In fact, it behaves much more like a metal (though the way it conducts electricity is very different), and that's led some scientists to describe it as a semimetal or a semiconductor (a material mid-way between a conductor and an insulator)so is the Graphene being super conductive and transparent, or is it adding some sort of strange resistance we don't even understand yet to the DeepSpace wire? Whatever it's doing is working. The wire takes about 150 - 200 hours of break-in but when that's over you have a conductor that performs a disappearing act and just gets out of the way while still perserving all of the Pace, Rhythm, and Timing recorded in the music.
Each unit is 1 inch long. (25.4 mm) For example, if you would like a continuous 10 inch length you'll need to buy 10 units. If you need partial lengths contact us and we will arrange for the amount you need.

The wire takes about 150 - 200 hours of break-in but when that's over you have a conductor that performs a disappearing act and just gets out of the way while still perserving all of the Pace, Rhythm, and Timing recorded in the music.
Each unit is 1 inch long. (25.4 mm) For example, if you would like a continuous 10 inch length you'll need to buy 10 units. If you need partial lengths contact us and we will arrange for the amount you need.
