Introducing the BOS5 - Our Latest 3.5mm to 3.5mm Offering

          As of next month, Black Octagon Solutions is a year old. Our very first product was a 3.5mm to 3.5mm interconnect, the BOS1. Seeing the BOS range grow from one cable to 4 different options and also how reliable the cables have been in terms of performance and durability, we've decided to do a couple of things before we turn a year old. 


         First thing is that all our cables now come with a lifetime warranty. The warranty basically is for manufacturing defects. We test every cable made before it leaves the bench so we're confident that they will perform to expectations. 

          The second thing we want to do this month is introduce the BOS5 cable. The BOS5 borrows a bit from our other interconnects instead of just our 3.5mm to 3.5mm interconnects. So it is a completely new cable with a hint of the old stuff thrown in. Here's what we've borrowed:

• Ultra Pure Oxygen Free Copper from our RCA interconnects and speaker cables for signal transfer and ground.
• Silver plated Ultra Pure Oxygen Free Copper for signal transfer and ground.
• Tinned Oxygen Free Copper braided shield like the one in our 3.5mm to RCA interconnect cable. 
• Switchcraft 3.5HDBAU connectors. Same ones used in the BOS1.
• Grey sleeving like the original BOS4
• Starquad configuration
• 2% Silver Solder 

          Some of you might be thinking that the above features are misleading as it says ultra pure oxygen free copper (UPOFC) for signal transfer and ground as well as silver plated UPOFC for signal transfer and ground. Well, it uses both. Its a starquad cable. Each of the four conductors is made up of strands of UPOFC wire surrounding more strands of silver plated UPOFC wire. Best of both worlds?

The Black Octagon BOS1 3.5mm to 3.5mm Interconnect

The Black Octagon BOS1 Interconnect

          The very first cable to carry the BOS moniker, the BOS1 is a 3.5mm to 3.5mm interconnect. This was the cable that started it all for us but this would be the first time that we are officially introducing it to the market. Reason? We never got round to it to be honest and initially we thought it would be a limited production run. However the response from those who have purchased the cable has been nothing but positive so with some encouragement from our customers, we have decided to make it a permanent fixture in our line of cables.

          Employing a double copper shield like the BOS4, the BOS1 is paired together with Switchcraft 35HDBAU connectors and soldered with WBT4% Silver Solder. Known for being neutral in nature, some may find the BOS1 to be unforgiving within certain systems. Whereas in others, it can be that link which has always been missing. 

          As with all our cables, we believe copper is the best conductor overall and the BOS1 uses oxygen free copper for its two cores and the double shield.
