On the quest of solid core interconnect cables wanted to use a cable which is specifically designed for analog single ended transport. Though co-axial and hybrid co-axial (twisted pair and coaxial) Cables were widely used for analog interconnects, they are not originally made for analog single ended or unbalanced interconnect application. Widely available cables are 75/50/110 ohms digital cables or unbalanced co-axial.
While searching for a unique cable for unbalanced interconnect application, I came across this DNM Ribbon V3 interconnect cables.
few details of the cable from DNM OEM page below.
So, I give it a try. Got hold of 2 plus meters of this cable. and its there in my table ready for preparation.



Unlike other cables strain relieving is not easy it this cable with the connecter what I have. DNM advices not to use blades or cable sleeve striper as the blade mark on conductor may make it break while using it. I have experienced this in my Linton upgrade too. The best way is to melting the insulator using hot rod or solder iron (have to clean it). tinned the terminals of RCA and ends of conductor using Mundrof 9% silver and 1% gold soldering lead.


Used 8 mm Heat shrink tubes to secure the cable and soldered it to terminals.

Fully completed cables ready to hooked on between my CDP and AMP (Denon DCD 2500ne and Denon PMA 2500ne).

- DNM's new third generation stereo interconnect cable has ground (earth return) conductors with only one third of the resistance of the earlier DNM stereo interconnects, now using 0.5mm diameter outer signal conductors and 0.65mm diameter inner ground conductors.
- It still retains the same ultra-low capacitance and distributed inductance combined with a clean magnetic performance, characteristics which have enabled DNM’s cable designs to achieve uniquely accurate music reproduction for over 32 years!
- DNM’s latest ribbon cable sets the conductor spacing and the Q of the cable structure to give very accurate tonal rendition to any music signal it carries.
