Wireworld Cable Platinum Starlight 10 Digital Audio XLR 110 Ohm

WireWorld Platinum Starlight 10 Digital Audio – thought through to the last detail

Digital signal transmission in the high-end sector places special demands on the cable used. This isn't just about the connection itself, but also about the quality of the data transmission – even the smallest deviations in timing or interference can have audible effects. The WireWorld Platinum Starlight 10 Digital Audio XLR 110 Ohm was developed precisely for this sensitive area. It combines sophisticated technology with high-quality materials without being unnecessarily obtrusive.

The cable's construction is based on WireWorld's patented Tri-DNA Helix design. This geometry was specifically engineered to keep signal flow as smooth and controlled as possible. The precise arrangement of the conductors creates a particularly stable signal path that minimizes signal reflections and external influences. The construction is symmetrical and matched to an impedance of 110 ohms – ideal for AES/EBU transmissions with XLR connectors.

High-purity material and proven construction

A look at the components used reveals that no half measures were taken with the Platinum Starlight 10. The conductors are made of pure OCC-7N solid silver – a material known for its high conductivity and low contact resistance. The monocrystalline construction minimizes transition points in the material, ensuring particularly clean signal transmission. The individual strands are flat and organized into three groups of 13 individual wires each.

The insulation in this model is provided by WireWorld's proprietary Composilex 5 material. This special plastic compound was developed by WireWorld to minimize dielectric loss and prevent the buildup of static charges. This ensures that the signal remains largely unaffected by external factors as it travels through the cable—a benefit that is particularly evident in long connections or complex systems.

Robust and practical

WireWorld also focuses on solid quality when it comes to the connectors. The XLR connectors used are encased in silver-plated OFC (Oxygen Free Copper), providing not only a reliable connection but also high mechanical strength. Despite its complex internal components, the cable itself is comparatively flexible and easy to install—a point that's not entirely unimportant in many setups.

In practice, the Platinum Starlight 10 proves to be a stable link between digital components. It stands out not for its spectacular interventions in the sound, but for its precision and neutrality. Vocals and instruments are clearly separated, and the spatial representation appears comprehensible and structured. Anyone who places great value on consistent signal routing in their setup will find this cable a lasting solution.

Subtle sound advantage – without gimmicks

The special character of the WireWorld Platinum Starlight 10 Digital Audio XLR 110 Ohm lies in its ability to cleanly convey even the smallest nuances. There's no artificial sharpness, no exaggerated emphasis – instead, the music remains the focus. Especially in high-quality setups where every detail counts, a cable like this can make all the difference – not as a spectacular effect, but as the foundation for stable and comprehensible reproduction.
