The Basic Theory

  The fadel Art technologies are consequently the results of the basic philosophy of Mr. Fadel. That means all our technologies have the target to fulfil the Heaveside conditions, to guarantee the best possible phase and impedance correction and to realize high end audio products which are optimized for their specific use.
   First in most of our cables we are using the Litz wire technology or an equivalent construction in order to avoid the undesired skin effect. Furthermore to eliminate the Eddy current in copper we are selecting a very high purity copper with a long-crystal structure. Our final operation consists in measuring the resulting parameters in a given structure with an impedance analyser from DC to 1 MHz. To achieve the optimum correction we take in consideration the Heaveside conditions in order to realize a distortionless cable.
   In the Heaveside formula the only parameters we can modify are the line conductance and the line impedance. Therefore we developed a technique increasing both the inductance and the conductance by weakening the insulation by a specific method. For this we have developed a very special magnetic material consisting of an carbon-iron powder which is defined by pure iron particles with a very precise particle structure of a perfect spherical shape. This material has no magnetic remanence, a very high teperature stability and, in contrary to most magnetic materials, a very high resistivity as well as a very low permeability.

  Furthermore fadel Art has introduced for the fist time the measuring parameter "Alpha" as a specific characteristic for audio cables, which defines the amount of energy which is consumed inside a cable while a signal is passing the cable. Therefore this parameter is specific only to the cable and is not influenced by the connected amplifiers and speakers. Consequently we have also developed a corresponding sophisticated computer software which, based on the measurements of the well known electric parameters, makes it possible to describe the conditions of Heaveside as well as to descibe the measuring parameter "Alpha".
   In 1998 fadel Art has developed a really unique technology for the realization of high end audio cables to which was given the name "Silence Technology". This outstanding technology is based on the carefully made analysis of a specific phenomena which is influencing the acustic transmission inside a cable and which goes back to the so called "Barkhausen Effect". This effect was up to now only known for magnetic materials, but now for the first time this effect was analysed by Mr. Fadel for non-magnetic materials like copper, which are used as conductors in cables. This technology is the first approach in the audio field to eliminate the noise which is created by the internal movement of the molecules. The products which are based on the "Silence Technology" are without any doubt the most sophisticated products ever developed by our company. The "Reference One" series are the first items using this entirely new "Silence Technology"
