NISHIKI CONV Ultimate

We have developed the ultimate conversion cable that seamlessly connects high-end audio systems with portable devices and existing headphone cables.

This product is a special model conversion cable optimized using wire material suitable for interconnect cables, based on the hybrid configuration of gold-plated silver wire and gold-plated copper wire adopted in the NISHIKI earphone cable released for the 10th anniversary.
It adopts a SpiralCore structure and is further shielded with gold-plated copper wire.

It was developed to further enhance the potential of FUGAKU and WATATSUMI, which have received very high acclaim worldwide, allowing them to be enjoyed in combination with high-end audio systems.
In addition, a lineup of various conversion cables is also available, enabling connection of existing headphone cables to different amplifier outputs such as 4.4mm, XLR4, and dual XLR3.

Sound characteristics
• It delivers a generous tonal balance, offering rich timbre and refined gradation, and demonstrates high rendering capability.
• With a low-centered and substantial tonal tendency, it achieves an accurate and stable sense of soundstage and spaciousness. The mid-to-low frequencies provide a strong sense of presence with powerful and full-bodied impact, making music enjoyable to listen to.
• Unlike typical conversion cables that tend to compromise soundstage or imaging, it maintains stable tonality and a well-balanced frequency range, allowing for enjoyable listening over long periods with minimal fatigue.

Note: NISHI wire material — a hybrid structure combining gold-plated silver wire (high-performance, high-purity silver wire) and gold-plated copper wire (high-performance, high-purity copper wire).
