Clarity Labs began manufacturing audio cables in 1995 with the goal being able to provide top quality cables at a real world price that would allow your system to show it's true potential.  We do not claim to be offering the "Miracle Wire", as only your ears can tell you what feels and sounds right. With that, we will not overwhelm you with pages of specs and graphs that tell you little about how our cables will sound in your system. All Clarity Labs cables are completely hand crafted and tested from start to finish. There are no machines, as this is a labor of love. Completely US made.

Many of you will remember the Clarity Labs Audio Cables that were once distributed by Response Audio. Still our best selling cables after more than 10 years and for very good reason. They offer exceptional sound quality as well as value. Sadly Clarity Labs is no longer around but Response Audio took over Clarity Labs in 2005. To this day, you will still find various Clarity Labs cabling used throughout the world as well as our showroom. We have brought back these popular cables and now in enhanced MK II versions. Clarity Labs cables continue to impress even the most discriminating listeners around the globe.

Many companies use dissimilar metals between the wire and connectors. We don't believe a silver connector belongs on a copper cable nor a copper connector on a silver cable. You will also find that all of our cables are equipped with a damping material within the connector eliminating resonance at the connector and RCA/XLR jacks they are connected to. This material also acts as an adhesive so please do not try to remove the connectors as damage will occur to the cable and will not be covered under warranty.

Please contact us for the PROPER way to evaluate audio cables.

All Clarity Labs cables are available for audition at Response Audio.

All Clarity Labs cables are made and tested to order and usually ship within 2-3 business days. Please allow up to 7 days for longer lengths and/or speaker cables.

Revolutionizing the Affordable Cable
 

Clarity Series

The new Clarity Series of interconnect cables are the result of several years of research and listening. Don't be fooled by the clean, elegant look of the Clarity Series as the sonic attributes of this cable are the result of many proprietary factors. One listen to the Clarity Series interconnect cables and you will finally realize the full potential of your system.

Over the years we have experimented and even released cables based on precious materials such as Palladium and Gold and different alloys and believe these cables still have their places. The Clarity Series, especially the Clarity Ag was brought forth with only one goal in mind, to provide the cleanest, quietest, most neutral signal possible.

Both the Clarity Ag and Clarity Cu utilize several runs of the highest quality conductor material to provide an optimal equivalent AWG which is known by only a few to be the optimal size for a cable connecting two components. Combine this with the proprietary connector damping material and other connector secrets employed and you have a cable that will let you hear further into the music than one would ever think possible.

The "Foxfire" interconnect is a true silver reference quality cable. The original Foxfire was a silver hybrid cable that was in production from 1997-2005 and is now being introduced as a MK II full silver version.

The "Foxfire II" interconnect is a full Silver design utilizing some of the finest materials available resulting in more air, extension and speed as compared to the original Foxfire Hybrid. For silver cable enthusiast, the Foxfire is the ultimate decision.

 This "Foxfire II" is currently a reference cable for many throughout the globe including being one of  the Reference cables here at Response Audio for the evaluation and auditioning of all of our exclusive, custom built tube products and modifications.

The Foxfire II is again becoming very popular among those looking for the ultimate in articulation and upper end airiness. This cable utilizes a high purity, solid core Silver wire throughout as well as Silver RCA or XLR connectors that offers fast clean bass, articulate yet musical midrange and a very open, airy upper end with a soundstage you can walk into. You will be sacrificing nothing with this cable. For those looking for a "fat" sound, this is not the cable of choice. The Foxfire II is fast and dynamic providing the end user with a true to life presentation.

The Foxfire II-X (Extreme) steps up to several runs of small gauge solid core silver wire per run for the last word in extension, air and detail throughout the entire frequency range. The Foxfire II-X has three times the amount of silver as compared to the Foxfire II.

The critics agree, the Foxfire is one of the finest interconnects available at this price point and well beyond. It quickly became a reference cable for many discriminating listeners. 

The Foxfire II is a perfect cable mate for the Purity Silver Statement Linestage as it utilizes the same core wire for internal wiring keeping synergy in check.

"Foxfire" Silver Hybrid

......smooth and liquid with a sweet, open and airy sound. It had lots of detail, presence and great pace and tempo to boot.....

.....no other cable in our review had the presence and well, clarity that the "Foxfire" possessed.....

....and the Clarity Wires "Foxfire" was our mutual first choice.....

Now includes the Harvest II Loudspeaker cable.

The "Harvest II" was designed as a high end solid copper cable that is suited for any type of system. Solid state and/or tubes. All copper construction with a high purity, solid core copper signal transfer wire and returns with a thin Teflon dielectric to minimize skin effects. A killer cable for both solid state and tube systems. The "Harvest II" offers a robust, full bodied presentation without bloat or bloom. The Harvest exhibits silky smooth midrange and upper end qualities in both tube and solid state systems without sacrificing any inner detail, speed, transparency or definition.

The perfect all-around choice for any high resolution system providing speed and articulation. Provides a very well balanced presentation throughout and makes for the perfect choice for copper cable enthusiast.

The Harvest II Extreme (shown at right) steps up to several runs of small gauge solid core copper/Teflon wire per run for the last word in extension, air and detail. The Harvest Extreme steps up to a heavier overall gauge as compared to the Harvest II. When ordering, just ask for the Harvest II-X

The Harvest II-X is also available as a balanced cable, the Harvest II-XB, using high quality Neutrik XLR connectors.

The Harvest II-XS is a fully shielded version of the Harvest II-X. With the increasing level of EMI/RFI in our everyday lives, we are receiving more and more inquiries for a shielded cable.

The Harvest interconnects are a perfect cable mate for the Purity Reference Linestage as it utilizes the same core wire for internal wiring keeping synergy in check.

The Harvest II-XB is a fully balanced version the Harvest II-X and utilizes multiple runs of solid core Copper/Teflon for each of the three legs. High quality Neutrik Gold XLR connectors are used on the Harvest II-XB balanced cables.

 

 

Price Increase: Please note that we are almost out of our original Clarity Labs RCA connectors. Once these are gone, we will be switching to a difference RCA connector. Unfortunately, we cannot obtain these connectors anywhere near the price we paid for the very large order of the original connectors well over 10 years ago. The Harvest II interconnect cables will see a slight price increase once we move to the new connectors.

The Harvest II-X loudspeaker cable is comprised of multiple runs of solid core Copper/Teflon wire for a equivalent gauge of 16 AWG and finished off with the highest quality gold banana or spade termination. Many years of listening to various materials, gauges and braiding designs has led us to prefer an overall gauge of 16 AWG. The Harvest II loudspeaker cable uses a similar "Bella Braid" as used in our Musica Bella loudspeaker and interconnect cables. The final result is exceptional speed, detail and air as well as not exhibiting the fat, bloated and rolled off sound of garden hose loudspeaker cables.

With so many loudspeaker cables on the market these days, we had to be sure we meet the goals we set forth for all Clarity Labs cabling. Our main focus was speed, detail and definition which is exactly what the Harvest II loudspeaker cable provides.

Like the Harvest II-X interconnect, the loudspeaker cables also provides the ultimate in extension, air and detail.

Harvest II Loudspeaker Cables Available in 4ft.-8ft.  lengths only

Why only 16 gauge? It is a myth that you need speaker cables the size of a fire hose for your system to perform properly. When using a 16 AWG speaker cable, you do not have to worry about the impedance of your system (speaker load). You can run up to 12 feet of 16 AWG speaker cable into speakers as low as 2 ohms and still be well under 5% of the overall impedance. Besides, how many people own 2 ohm loudspeakers.

 

All Clarity Labs cable are hand assembled and tested per order. Cables are matched to within .1% to assure proper channel balance. Before shipping your new Clarity Labs cables, all connector end are pre treated with Pro-Gold. For the best continued performance, we recommend treating all your cables within your system as well as all the connectors on your components every 6 months at minimum. It's a very small price to pay to keep your system performing at it's fullest potential.

DIRECTION

Clarity Labs cables are non-directional but it is always recommended to be consistent when hooking up audio interconnect and loudspeaker cables.  Please always run your Clarity Labs cables so the signal is flowing in the same direction as the print on the heat shrink.

TECHNICAL DATA      

BURN-IN

When purchasing audio cables, interconnects and/or speaker cables, always purchase the shortest length needed to connect your components yet allowing for some flexibility.

Clarity Labs interconnect cables are not shielded and therefore we do not recommend lengths in excess of 2 meters long. Response Audio is not responsible for noise associated with any Clarity Labs cables.
