Your SoundWire
Congratulations!
With the SoundWire, we’ve simplified it all for you: just one straight line from your playback device to the mixing console, with uncompromised audio fidelity.
The USB-C DAC delivers pristine 32-bit, 192kHz audio. No drivers needed; simply plug it into your laptop or smartphone and select ‘SoundWire’ as audio device.
Custom transformers inside the XLRs balance the signal, eliminating the need for DI boxes and protecting your playback device from accidental 48V activation.
We hope you’ll enjoy using your new SoundWire!

48V Protection
Custom-designed transformers housed in the XLR connectors balance the signal, eliminating the need for DI boxes and protecting your playback device from accidental 48V activation.
QuadCore cabling
To ensure exceptional audio quality, interference-rejection and minimise cross-talk, the cable features a shielded QuadCore wiring configuration.
Sonnect blue braid
A custom-made 24 Nylon twin-fibre braid sleeving strengthens the cable, protecting it from accidental tugging or pinches. The braid is detached from the cable, ensuring maximum flexibility and a soft touch.
