Analysis Plus Silver APEX Interconnect Cable - 3.0 Meter - RCA to RCA - Pair

What It Does in Your System

The Best Cable Analysis Plus Makes

Analysis Plus has spent decades refining one idea: the hollow oval conductor. Silver Apex is where that work goes furthest. Their other cables lay hollow ovals side by side or stack them. This one nests three, one inside another.

This listing is a matched pair of 3-meter cables with RCA plugs — one for each channel. That's a long run for an interconnect, which makes the cable's construction matter more, not less.

A Double Shield That Earns Its Keep Over Distance

The longer a cable runs, the more it acts like an antenna. It picks up radio noise from Wi-Fi, phones, and everything else in a modern house. An RCA connection has no built-in trick for canceling that noise, so the shield has to do the work.

The three nested ovals create a real double shield. That drops the noise floor far enough to uncover low-level detail and room ambience that were buried under it before.

Silver Over Copper, Without the Glare

Silver cables have an old reputation for sounding thin and hard up top. Earlier designs earned it. Analysis Plus lays pure silver over a strand of oxygen-free copper, and that does two jobs at once. The copper gives the hollow oval the strength to hold its shape. The silver brings speed and detail without the edge.

Reviewers describe the result as neither warm nor clinical. It follows the recording without adding a voice of its own.

Is This Right for You?

A few things to check before you order:

• Long RCA runs work best with the right source. Three meters is a lot to ask of an RCA connection. Most modern preamps, DACs, and streamers handle it fine. Some tube gear has a high output impedance, which means it struggles to drive a long cable. Call us with your components and we'll check.
• This is a complete pair. You get two cables, one for each channel. There's no need to order two.
• Line level, not phono. Use this between a source and your preamp, receiver, or integrated amp. It isn't a phono cable. A turntable's cartridge needs a special low-capacitance cable, and a long run makes that even more true.

Setup & Installation

Run each cable from your source component's outputs to the matching inputs on your preamp, receiver, or integrated amp. Push each plug all the way onto its jack. Keep left and right consistent at both ends. The RCA connectors are a custom Analysis Plus design, so expect them to grip more firmly than a generic plug.

At three meters you're likely routing along a baseboard or behind furniture. Cross power cords at right angles instead of running beside them. Leave a gentle loop of slack so no weight hangs on the connectors.

Features & Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to order two?
No. This is a matched pair, one cable per channel. A single order completes a stereo connection between your components.

Is three meters too long for RCA?
It depends on your source component. Most modern gear drives a run this long without trouble, and the double shielding is doing real work to keep it quiet. If both your components have balanced XLR connections, that's the sturdier choice at this distance.

Will a silver cable sound bright?
Not this one. The silver goes over a copper core rather than being used alone. Reviewers have consistently called Silver Apex refined and relaxed rather than forward.
