Van den Hul The Octocopler MK2

Description

Description Freakuence!

This optical cable is a real winner. The workmanship is to put through a ring and the construction is of a high standard. It stays firmly in place and does exactly what it is supposed to do.

General description

The Van den Hul The Optocoupler MK2 is a high-quality optical cable that provides accurate and interference-free digital signal transmission. Thanks to the unique convex lens-shaped ends of the fiber, light is optimally focused, resulting in fewer internal reflections and a shorter light path. This reduces signal loss and minimizes jitter, contributing to a clearer and more detailed sound image.

With a transmission capacity of over 250 megabits per second and an external diameter of 7.5 mm, the Van den Hul The Optocoupler MK2 provides a reliable and durable connection between your audio devices. The high-quality construction and use of optical fiber ensure long life and consistency in your music playback.

Background information

Van den Hul The Octocopler MK2 is designed with a focus on signal integrity and durability, using high-quality materials sourced from Europe. Johannes van den Hul, the founder and chief engineer, emphasizes a design philosophy focused on minimal signal distortion and maximum transparency. The internal wiring uses Van den Hul’s patented Linear Structured Carbon (LSC) technology, which ensures excellent signal transmission. The sturdy and well-insulated enclosure protects against electromagnetic interference, while production takes place in their Dutch facilities, with great attention to detail and quality control.

Brand history

Van den Hul was founded in 1980 in the Netherlands by A.J. van den Hul. The brand began with the introduction of a carbon fiber cable with the goal of optimizing signal transmission. In the following years, Van den Hul developed various products including cables and elements. The cables are manufactured in the Netherlands and according to specifications also in Switzerland. Production uses techniques and materials such as Linear Structured Carbon and Hulliflex, a robust plastic jacket. Van den Hul supplies a wide range of cables and elements, and also offers maintenance products for installation and cleaning.

BT Talk

describes the Van den Hul The Optocoupler MK II as an optical audio cable that transfers digital audio signals between devices. The company, known for its analog products, has taken a logical step toward the careful transmission of sensitive audio data with this cable. The cable is designed to transport signals undamaged and interference-free from source to end device. Of particular note is the attention paid to the inner conductor: the glass fibers are convexly shaped at both ends, providing a better fit in the ports and more efficient bundling of light. This design minimizes reflections and detours within the cable, even under strong bends, reducing timing differences and jitter. In tests, where the cable was connected to an Oppo player and a Yamaha RX-A6A amplifier, stable and accurate timing was observed, with no sonic deficiencies. The cable is praised for its solid construction and audible improvement in sound quality.
