Hi-Fi Interconnects - Townshend Audio
Hi-Fi Interconnects are designed to connect the various music sources you use (such as streamer, turntable, CD player, etc), to your hi-fi amplifier. These are usually RCA interconnects featuring the "go to" phono plug type. We also sell DIN interconnects (usually used with Naim equipment) as well as balanced XLR interconnects (usually used with higher end equipment).
Along with good quality speaker cables, upgrading your interconnects is one of the most effective upgrades you can make to your hi-fi set-up. The "giveaway" cables included with most separates are enough to get you started but won't get the best sound from your investment. Like speaker cables, we recommend budgeting at least 10% of hi-fi value for good quality interconnects.
Don't be put off by some of the higher priced cables - sort by price to view cables starting from only £20. If you are not sure which cables to choose for your system and for cable matching advice, please call or e-mail us for expert advice.
For nearly five decades the team of highly qualified engineers at Townshend Audio have been working towards building the perfect hi-fi system. Their quest is to find the best solution for every problem in the audio replay chain and build the ideal high fidelity music reproduction system is guided by common sense and sound engineering practice.
To create this system they had to re-visit almost every component, from source to speaker. Along the way they encountered many unproductive dead-ends and established that there was no single technology or silver bullet that could transform an ordinary hi-fi into an excellent one. By taking a rigorous approach to the design of every component in the system the result is an exceptional music system. It has been highly praised as the best system ever heard by many discerning listeners and respected critics, including a number of professional soloists and orchestral players.
Along the path of discovery Townshend have developed a number of components and techniques that are indispensable in the system and which have been shown to enhance other high-end audio systems.
