HiFi News Outstanding Product Award for Hyper Interconnect
The Atlas Hyper is a superior unbalanced design cable with a well-defined impedance of 75 ohms. The central conductor is made from 80 strands of OCC copper of 99.9997% purity and which is insulated by an extremely low-loss foamed polyethylene dielectric. The return conductor is a two-layer braid made from a total of 272 strands of Ultra-Pure Oxygen Free Copper. The double layer of tightly woven wire mesh also provides 100% rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI) ensuring that the music signal is free from any external interference or noise. The conductors are covered by a soft PVC sleeve, coloured Gloss Black.
The Hyper is terminated with exclusive Atlas RCA plugs made from OFC copper with a high gloss silver finish. These plugs provide a continuous path for the signal virtually free of the discontinuities that can degrade the music signal in subtle but audible ways. Hyper RCA Interconnect .75m $299

"Dynamics are vivid and detail resolution is great for the money, while the bass deserves special mention for its taughtness and power. Simply put, the Atlas Voyager is an excellent cable for the money."
"Copper conductors and good quality termination result in an open, even handed performance."
The Atlas Voyager uses OCC for both the going and the return conductors and employs a PTFE dielectric together with a polyethylene foam and conducting PVC to provide 100% rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI).
The Voyager is a superior unbalanced design and is together with the Atlas Navigator and the Compass the first three interconnects in the range of Atlas super interconnects for high quality systems.

Hi-Fi News and Record Review "Best audio interconnect, 2002"
"Atlas cables has amassed years of experience in matching up the best OCC (monocrystal) cable to suitable plugs, and now has a considered range of very high performing interconnects and speaker cables. The Navigator with copper OCC plugs allows for a supremely natural-sounding interconnect that neither subtracts from the music flow, nor adds any false detail or unwanted colouration, often mistaken for 'better' high fidelity.
An honest performance interconnect that lets music out."
The Atlas Navigator All Cu (all copper) uses deletion free OCC for both the going and the return conductors and employs a PTFE dielectric together with a cotton yarn filler in order to reduce microphony. 100% rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI) is provided by an OCC braid and a copper mylar shield.
The Navigator is a superior design that may be used for fully balanced systems with XLR plugs or as in the case of this cable, in a pseudo balanced fashion with the Atlas patented OCC copper RCA plug.
The copper plug that's cold welded or crimped on to the conductors with an air tight seal, avoids the use of solder. Solder presents an unecessary barrier to the signal and at Atlas we believe the finest qualities result from the removal of barriers to the signal such as the use of solder or materials of differing characteristics from the signal carrying conductors, hence the OCC or All Cu plug; it provides more deletion free information.
The Navigator together with the Atlas Voyager and the Atlas Compass are the first three interconnects in the range of Atlas super interconnects for high quality systems. The Navigator sounds analogue like in it's presentation, giving lots of stereo width, height and depth with an air around the instruments and an ambience.
For those looking for a sophisticated and relaxed sound the Navigator is the interconnect to buy.
Try the Navigator All Cu together with the following speaker cables: Atlas Ascent 2.0, Atlas Ascent 3.50 or for bi wiring, the Atlas Ichor.

Audiopuls Magazine said:
I am still convinced that there is regardless of the price category, no audio component that (can) boast the satus of the best one, but if there is a combination of the interconnect and the loudspeaker cable which I may recommend without any reservations whatsoever for any system at all - then it would be this one. Does that mean it is also the best? See for yourself.
Unique to Atlas, the Mavros interconnect uses a new microporous PTFE dielectric together with OCC copper conductors which are manufactured using the highest-quality technique for drawing copper. "Ohno Continuous Casting" or OCC has one grain in about 700 feet of conductor, so the audio signal travels through a continuous conductor instead of traversing grain boundaries. The copper itself is of the highest purity; equivalent to 7N or 99.999997% pure.
The new microporous insulation with a dielectric constant between 1.3 and 1.5 improves on ordinary PTFE and provides up to 85% greater velocity of propagation. That speed introduces better musical integrity throughout the audio spectrum and especially in the area of high frequency delivery. The music has more pace and the presentation is holographic. Speaker boxiness disappears as the Mavros offers listners an ambience and a relaxed yet dynamic all engulfing sound that truely replicates a concert hall experience.
The new Atlas Mavros interconnect was designed to be technically and sonically superior to other interconnect cables currently available at similar prices.
Do you dare you to try this technically advanced cable in your system? If so get ready to be amazed because nothing will prepare you for the staggering improvement you'll hear!
The Atlas Mavros demands to be heard with and used with the Mavros speaker cable in order that the advantages of increased signal velocity can be appreciate and that the higher band-width signal isn't strangled by a speaker cable that's unable to carry all the information provided to it without deletion.

Hi Fi news were impressed with the Mavros interconnect and speaker cable. They said:
Naturally, Atlas recommends the use of its Mavros interconnects with its Mavros speaker cable. With both in place the system took on a whole new dimension, offering greater space, depth, dynamics and fluidity. These new Mavros cables from Atlas have the uncanny ability to sound fast yet relaxed, detailed yet refined, fluid yet composed. If they were a wine they would be a Brunello di Montalcino. Enjoy!
UHF Magazine in Canada said:
After the pauline Viardot song, Reine pronounced herself delighted, praising whetever this cable turned out to be without reservation (blind test). So did Albert, who however reached for more adjectives."It's beautiful, it's moving, the detail is refined. There's a beautiful balance with the piano, which is warm and limpid." Would this cable turn out to be better than our reference? We had more to come. The Margie Gibson recording confirmed the superiority of this cable. "It's magnificent," exclaimes Reine, "her voice is even more detailed. What a surprise." Albert agreed. "And it's not as though it were an easy recording.," he said. "Everything is well positioned in space, timbres are natural, the voice is clear. Everything is there, it's alive.
What Hi Fi said
Accomplishement and refinement are the key words here. With expensive kit, the Mavros works miracles.
The Atlas Asimi has won a 2009 Product Of The Year award from Hi Fi Plus.
In their first review of the new Atlas Asimi, Hi Fi Plus said:“Taken separately or together, these cables are creamy smooth, dynamic enough to rattle fillings or play at a whisper without problems, extremely detailed and extraordinarily neutral; all of the things you want from a cable with none of the things you don’t.”
“Its hard not to be seriously impressed with Atlas’ Asimi and Mavros pairing. These are two of the very, very best. Plus it’s good to find a truly UK high end offering. Atlas is definitely on the high-end map!”
HiFi News Editor's Choice Award for Asimi I/C
Atlas stunned the industry with the introduction of what is probably the highest performance interconnect and speaker cable available at it's price; a cable researched, designed and developed in Scotland by Atlas (Scotland) Ltd. The Atlas Mavros.
That was just the beginning, we're now proud to reveal the extraordinary Atlas Asimi interconnect. Building on the work that led to the Mavros design, the Asimi adopts the same World-leading construction, but with the added benefits of pure silver conductors, manufactured using the highest-quality technique for drawing pure silver. "Ohno Continuous Cast" or OCC, used in the manufacture of high quality Atlas copper cables, increases conductivity of the material, in this case pure silver, by ensuring that there is less than one grain or signal deleting crystal boundary in about 700 feet of conductor! OCC silver allows the signal to travel through a continuous conductor instead of traversing repeated grain boundaries - in other words, the signal has a faster, cleaner and more direct path to follow.
Our attention was once again focussed on the coating that insulates and protects the silver. The Asimi has these conductors enveloped in our new microporous Teflon dielectric. This new air spaced foam improves on the performance of the best solid teflon or PTFE insulators, by providing a 30% greater signal velocity and better integrity, particularly in the area of high frequency delivery. This is achieved because the new material has a dielectric constant of around 1.5 - significantly better than the 2.1 achieved by the more typical PTFE insulators which up to now were the best available in Hi Fi or audio visual applications.
The Asimi interconnect is supplied terminated with the patented Atlas direct silver plated non compressing, solder free, double screened, self cleaning, RCA plugs which are formed from OCC copper thus ensuring a consistent signal path. High quality, exclusive, solder free Atlas XLR connectors are available as an alternative.
The construction of the Asimi silver interconnect cable consists of a pair of conductors, each made up from six bundles of 12 mult conductor wires plus a thicker wire in the centre. Each bundle of conductors is insulated with a layer of microporous Teflon and surrounded by a FPE (Mylar) jacket which in turn is covered by a continuous Copper-Mylar electrostatic screen and a silver plated copper close weave shielding braid ensuring the minimal pick up of RF interference and noise. The outer sheath is made from hard wearing PVC covered by a decorative silver/white woven cotton.
