新的完美标准

当其他的生产商忙碌着改进现有的电源插头及插座的设计来用在音响领域时，欧亚德的工程师已经在多次
试验之后将完美的材料用在了音响插头、插座领域。一个对声音材料方面很熟悉，对声音研究有着丰富的
物理知识的工程师。欧亚德的产品在设计与生产方面都根据基本理论而定。在整个过程中，他们定义了一
种新的“完美标准”。  
   
 
那么对于安全的电源插头、插座来说，最重要的考虑包含以下几点：

首先是材料的硬度适当：连接部分的材料与产品的外形必需相符合，而且不能有对声音不利的影响。

其次是好的弹性：第一次使用时，在压缩的情况下连接材料必需有足够的回弹能力，而且能够扩张以使其
在以后的使用中牢固的连接。在使用中消除电流或电磁波带来的振动，传输干净的信号以及安全的连接,这
在高级别连接器中至关紧要。

第三点是传导性能。

第四点是合适的电镀工艺：电镀的材料，电镀层与材料的合成，以及电镀的厚度都要非常谨慎的选择。

第五点体现在表面的磨光方面：在相当精微的一个标准下，当金属与金属接触时，表面越平坦越一致，效果
就会越出色，那么连接的时候也就越好。因此严格控制表面的品质，包括一致性和电镀层的厚度，才能传输
出干净的声音。

那么欧亚德与其他的“音响级”连接器的区别在哪里？

1、欧亚德的电源电源插头插座系列最基本的材料用的是无氧磷青铜，符合以上的前三个完美标准。（硬度够，
有弹性，传导性能好）。其他的“音响级”插头及插座用的是黄铜，硬度一般，缺乏弹性，而且纯度不够，含
有大量铁质，铅及红铜，这些材料会加快黄  铜的传输，缺少硬度和弹性。


2、欧亚德不仅在电镀材料上下功夫，在材料与电镀的合成上，以及在电镀的厚度上都做过很多研究，因此能生
产出最出色的电源插头插座产品。一般的电源插头插座产品在电镀方面不会做太多的工作，达不到标准，所以生
产出来的产品自然不会很完美。所有欧亚德的产品都是用最精确的电镀方式来使产品达到最好的艺术境界。在欧
亚德产品中，镍的采用保证声音能保持一个好的状态。如果要列举其他相似的、有效的、正确的合成方法，有以
下三种合成方法可以达到很好的效果：
    
 A.) 银/铑－　声音纯，坚固，结实，无染色，传输出非常宽深的声音。

 B.) 100%纯金－声音力度好，甜，华丽，动态好，清晰。

 C.) 金/钯－　金的声音活泼，带点冷色，有种新鲜感。

3、欧亚德的产品在电镀前打磨两次，在电镀后再打磨两次，非常细致。一般的电源插头插座表面磨光很粗糙，
即使是粗略看看也能看出来。两者相比较，欧亚德的打磨工作就像做珠宝一样细致。表面看来已经是相当的
赏心悦目，传输出来的声音自然不在话下。

为什么这些区别对于发烧友来说很重要？

 ·  首先是安全性与可靠性：欧亚德产品的品质使用起来放心，没有烦恼，而且使用寿命长。

 · 其次是性价比: 在同级别的相同产品中，欧亚德的性能远远超出它们。　　

 · 声音表现：在器材中接上欧亚德产品，就能感觉声音进入了新的一个领域。没有谁能预料到只是换一个小
   小的插头或插座就能使Hi-Fi器材的声音如此惊人的变化。

A New Standard of Excellence　

While other manufacturers were busy reworking existing AC connector and receptacle designs to adapt them for audio, 
Oyaide's engineers, whose knowledge of physics and materials with regard to sound is second to none, set out to 
examine each material employed in exhaustive detail to determine what would yield the best result. Thus their 
connectors would have to be designed and built from the ground up. In the process they have defined a new 
standard of excellence.
 

What are the most important considerations for a secure AC electrical connection?    
1.) Appropriate Hardness: The contact material must maintain its exact shape over time without 
    any adverse effect to the sound

2.) Appropriate Springiness: The material should have the ability to rebound from the compression of first contact 
    and expand to make firm long-term contact.This is highly important as a superior contact has the ability to 
    eliminate vibration due to the movement of electrons (current) or electromagnetic fields (signal) through the 
    contacts. For clean transport, secure contacts are crucial.

3.) Conductivity

4.) Appropriate Choice of plating materials: The type of materials, their combinations and thickness must be 
    carefully chosen.
  
5.) Surface finish: At a microscopic level, where metal meets metal, the more flat and uniform the final finish, 
    the greater the level of contact.Strict control of surface quality, including uniformity of plating thickness,      
    is a must for cleaner sound quality.

How do Oyaide connectors differ from typical Audio Grade� connectors? 
   
     
1) Oyaide connectors use Deoxidized Phosphor Bronze as a base material, which meets the first three criteria listed 
   above almost perfectly (appropriate hardness, springiness and conductivity). Typical auio grade connectors use brass,
   which is weak, lacks springiness and is generally not pure, containing significant amounts of iron and lead. Copper, 
   while having superior conductivity to brass, lacks appropriate hardness and springiness.
2) Oyaide did exhaustive research not only into which plating materials would be optimal, but also into which combinations 
     and what thickness would yield the best result. Typical plating methods do not meet the laboratory grade standard necessary 
     to achieve the best contact. All Oyaide products are plated using the highly precise hard contact plating method, which must      
     be performed in their state of the art facility. The use of nickel, which degrades the sound, is avoided. The three equally 
     valid and accurate combinations arrived at are: 
    
  A.) Silver/Rhodium – Pure, strong, solid, uncolored reproduction – providing a very extended sound field.
      
  B.) Direct Gold - bold, sweet, luxurious, dynamic and lucid character
     　
  C.) Gold/Palladium – the character of Gold with an added vibrancy and a cooler,fresher feeling

3.) The contacts of Oyaide connectors are polished twice before plating and twice again after each plating process. This attention 
    to detail is unrivalled. Even a cursory examination of a typical audiophile grade connector will reveal a rough surface. By 
    comparison, the Oyaide connector is polished to a jewelry quality finish, not for looks, though that is a desirable side benefit,      
    but for best connectivity and therefore best sound. ( See point 5 above)

Why are these differences important to the audio enthusiast?  
  
· Safety and reliability: The quality of construction of all Oyaide products exceeds all requirements for trouble-free, long-term use. 
   
· Value: While the cost of Oyaide connectors and receptacles is in the same range as competing products, the level of performance will 
   far outstrip them.      
   　

 · Level of performance: To outfit your system with Oyaide products is to enter into a new universe of sound. How could anyone predict 
    that merely changing a plug or receptacle could so dramatically improve the sound of a hi-fi system?
