It separates. The internal geometry of the NF-S6 AIR uses a circular array of conductors positioned around a hollow core. That core, an air-filled silicone tube, acts as both an insulator and a structural spine. By keeping each signal conductor physically isolated, the cable reduces internal interference and minimizes energy storage. Capacitance is kept low through both materials and architecture. Magnetic field interactions are suppressed. Signal rise time improves. Transients arrive intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSix-Layer Shielding: 100% Interference Free\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternal noise rejection is not a feature. It is a necessity.

Matrix Audio specified rectangular 1mm by 0.3mm flat wires to increase the conducting surface area, which produces a fuller, more powerful low-frequency reproduction. The OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) copper is a single-crystal draw process that produces fewer grain boundaries than standard OFC, giving a cleaner signal path. Matrix Audio kept the OCC unsilvered on purpose. Silver plating creates a velocity mismatch between high and low frequencies that audiophiles describe as \"harsh.\" Without it, the highs extend smoothly and the warmth stays intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/matrix-audio-occ-interconnect-cutaway.jpg\" alt=\"Matrix Audio OCC Hi-Fi Analog Interconnect Cable cutaway showing flat OCC wires aluminum foil and braided OFC shielding layers\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eTriple-Layer Shielding\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe conductor pair is wrapped in aluminum foil for the first shield layer, then a braided OFC (oxygen-free copper) outer shield, finished with a braided nylon sleeve. The result is a cable that rejects external EMI and RFI, leaving a clean, deep background. This matters most when paired with high-resolution streamers like the MS-1 or MS-1c, where the noise floor is already very low and any cable-induced noise becomes audible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eCNC-Machined Connectors With Gold-Plated Pins\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe connectors are designed in-house: solid CNC aluminum housings, 50µm gold-plated pins to reduce contact resistance and prevent oxidation, minimalist cylindrical form that mirrors the rest of the Matrix component aesthetic. The thicker gold plating (50µm vs the more common 1-3µm) means the connection stays clean over years of insertion and removal cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eChoose Your Length and Termination\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1m length is right for connecting between rack-mounted components without coiling slack. The 2.5m length gives flexibility for active-speaker placement or when source and amplification sit further apart. RCA terminations work with any unbalanced input. XLR terminations work with balanced sources, preamps, and active speakers.
