DHC Molecule Elite Fusion Headphone Cable

Description

Molecule Elite Fusion

New Focal headphones supported – pick “Eidolic universal 3.5mm single” for Focal Listen headphone cables, “Eidolic universal 3.5mm dual” for Focal Elear headphone cables, and “Focal Utopia dual LEMO” for Focal Utopia headphone cables. 

The Molecule Elite is the highest performing model of our compact, portable Molecule cables.  It is available as an ultracompact 4 wire cable or as a no-limits 8 wire/22awg cable.  It is intended to be our most advanced all-purpose cable, equally suitable for home and travel use.  Constant evolution of our litz OCC wires yield a cable that is unbelievably compact, light, flexible, and high performing with an effective 22awg conductor area per signal for the 8-wire silver model.  Molecule Elite moves well beyond the performance of other multi-strand braided headphone cables – it is made only with Fusion (indepedently insulated, pure OCC silver + pure OCC copper type 4 litz bundles inside each individual strand).

Features:

The Molecule Elite has terminations to match practically all gear.  All of these terminations are hand-picked by DHC as the best for the job.

Molecule Elite offers a full lineup of Eidolic & DHC splits, plus 3D printed options.  

The Molecule Elite uses the best wires that we’ve ever designed.  They will easily outperform any wire on the market in terms of pure electrical performance as well as ergonomics.  Our best value is our famous “Fusion” wire, the first of its kind, a “true hybrid” containing independently insulated bundles of OCC silver and copper litz strands inside each wire’s flexible, clear polyethylene jacket.  This wire offers higher performance than OCC copper while maintaining an intermediate price point between copper & silver .  Molecule Elite uses our V3 (third generation) type 4 OCC litz, which contains a pure cotton internal damping core inside each strand of wire, for an optimal strand arrangement and vibration control.  This innovation provides a more open & detailed sound, moving towards a cylindrical conductor that keeps the signal out of the center “dead spot.”  

Molecule Elite is built with a four wire round braid or, for the 8-wire models, an eight-strand round sinnet braid.  Of all the braids we’ve tried throughout the years, these are the few that is fully symmetrical on all sides and offers improved flexibility and appearance compared with alternative layouts.  The 8 wire braid construction packs the wires into a cube-like profile without any wasted space so it is highly compact.

A variety of optional sleeves to cover the cable below the y-split are offered, made with a very shiny & soft proprietary fiber that has been treated to get the best possible look & feel.
