Premier vs. Professional Comparison
Warm manufactures two lines of cables—Premier and Professional—offering various connection types at two different price points. Both lines leverage Gotham AG construction technology for near-perfect signal transmission and provide lifetime warranty protection. The Premier series adds premium features including gold-plated connectors, four-conductor StarQuad construction for strong EMI rejection, and double Reussen shielding for enhanced RFI rejection.
Theres no better sound or more reliable cable in the world, and Warm cables dont come with a gold price tag—theyre wires everyone can afford! Compared to other high-quality cables with lifetime warranty, Warm Audio cables cost 25-35% less on average.
Pure Signal, No Additions
Warm Audio cables dont add gain, color, effects, or anything extra to your signal. The purists at Warm believe quality cables should Do No Harm, transmitting signal without interference from connection to connection.
Premium Features of Warm Audio Cables
StarQuad Construction
A traditional balanced cable uses three wire conductors to carry audio signals: a shielded core for the hot/positive leg, a shielded core for the cold/negative leg (wired in reverse polarity to the positive leg), and a simple outer shield that acts as ground. A balanced audio system effectively rejects most noise induced along the cable by removing signals that are common to both legs.
StarQuad construction takes this concept further by using four conductors instead of two: two conductors each for the hot/positive and cold/negative legs and a single ground. This helps shield the audio signal from RFI (radio frequency interference) even more than a traditional three-conductor cable.
Double Reussen Shielding
Most cable construction techniques use an outer wire shield that acts as ground. Some manufacturers braid this wire, while others simply wrap the wires in an exceptionally uniform manner to shield the inner wires from interference.
Double Reussen shielding goes far beyond more traditional techniques in two ways: First, the cable is wrapped not with one but with TWO separate shields, and second, the outer shield is wound in the opposite direction from the inner shield. This creates a stronger and more complete RFI shield for the inner cores and can result in outstanding interference reduction. Double Reussen shielding is slightly more expensive to construct, but for those who accept nothing less than the best, it represents the cutting edge of todays balanced cable technology.
