RIC01-AAPPLICATIONS: ACOUSTIC GUITAR AND DOUBLE BASS

At Reference, we believeit is key to use a cable whichis able to render the soundcoming from your instrument,just as if it were li-stened to by ear.Is it therefore acceptable to have alow quality cable in the audio chain?The answer is surely not! A musiciantests and compares an instrument oramplifier before making his/her choice,in our opinion this should also occurwhen choosing cables.The same musician would never choosean amplifier which has not been specifi-cally designed for his acoustic guitar,he/she should also make an informedcable choice. Reference Laboratory,being aware of this, has created cablesfor acoustic instruments, or rather forinstruments that use piezo pick-up.

With reference to the above, we havetested the RIC01-A, on 8 different elec-tric-acoustic guitars. All the tests canbe listened to on DVD#1, DVD#3 andDVD#4.

Watch and listen to our DVDson our websitewww.referencelaboratory.comor ask M.I. shops sellingReference cables to playyou the DVD.

RECOMMENDEDFOR all electrical-

acoustic instrumentswith piezo pick-up.

The making of thiscable is “innovative”, and

to achieve this the Refe-rence Laboratory leve-

rages certain fundamentalelements: experience, expe-rimentation and compe-tence spanning more thantwenty years and “symmetri-cal” conductor technology.By symmetrical conductor,we mean when both conduc-tors, mass and signal areidentical. This technique eliminates anyunbalance on the signalroute, the results is a fullrange linear “rich” sound.WWhhyy cchhoooossee tthhiiss ccaabblleeiinnsstteeaadd ooff aa ggeenneerr iiccoonnee??Why lose the originalsound, produced by highquality acoustic instru-ments?

We use a PVC semiconductor, on all instrumentcables, as it reduces over 95% of sound created

by the movement of cables

We accurately test all our cables

We can assemble, as requested,cables to specific lengths

SSttrraappppeerr: Made in VELCRO®,an exclusive design with elec-tro-welded loop to be assem-bled with the cable. Waterresistant; high stability coupling(does not fear dust and mud).Available in different colours toidentify the different cablelengths.

Blue = 4,5 metresRed = 6 and 20 metres

Black = 10 metresYellow = 15 metres

REMEMBER THAT

If you use a RIC01-A cable make sure to also use it to connect allthe effects (pedal or rack), this will improve your sound!

Single bodied stem-tip to allow for the maximumconductibility possible and to prevent the tip frombecoming unscrewed, as a result of usage, typical oftips attached to the stem; to avoid oxidation issues andsubsequent reduction in conductibility, we use goldplated plugs

Single bodied Stem-Tip, to achieve maximum con-ductibility and to avoid loosening of the point duringusage, typical loosening of mounted tips (not singlebody tips). Standard telephone point, to obtain asecure contact on every female jack and also allowfor a wider contact area in comparison to othertraditional tips

Ample solder areaLead free solder, to achieve better conductibility whilerespecting the environment

In option is possible have on all intrument cables the Silent Plug jack(right angle o straight).
