Photon AMP Interconnect Cable
The second generation of the CyberLight P2A Photon Transducer Interconnect that is optimized for Preamp-to-Amplifier connections (recommended input: 1.25 Vrms)
Key Features:
- Patent-pending LAM ensures music is never digitized and offers the lowest possible noise floor
- Fiber-optic technology ensures entire signal path is purely analog, without any sampling
- Photon light signals make it immune to EMI and RFI interference
- No DC measurement at the receiving termination (The Photon AMP interconnect has added logic to prevent any possible DC leak to the destination device, such as an amplifier)
- The new generation, the Photon AMP interconnect, has a broader frequency response range and provides even better sound quality and detail presentation
- Better measurement data than the CyberLight P2A
- Musical information is preserved to a greater degree because no digitalization is used
- No sampling or mathematical algorithms problems exist—providing even greater depth, airiness and soundstage than any digitized transport can maintain
- With the signal path being unidirectional, the signal ground loop is completely isolated, creating a much darker background
- Better preservation of natural harmonics, resulting in the ultimate three-dimensional acoustics, with flat frequency response up to 40 MHz
- Easy component impedance match so components can perform at its designed peak
- The bass is the tightest, deepest, AND most articulate, with no bloat—just rich tones and superb definition
- Highs are crystalline, precise and all musical passages are unraveled with ease
- One-year warantee
Revolutionary Fiber Optic Interconnect Cable
As two-channel and multi-channel music, and even surround systems, reach ever greater resolutions, selecting the best interconnects to bring each component together into perfect harmony has become one of the most crucial and complex decisions. For the truly discriminating, the choice is fiber-optically clear: Blue-jacketed Photon AMP analog interconnects.
By adapting glass fiber and laser-like technology to the audio realm, Harmonic Technology has created a new generation of interconnects to bring the ultimate level of performance to audiophiles. Through patent-pending, miniaturized LAM (Light Analog Module) Photon Transducers, the Photon AMP converts audio signals to light pulses, with absolutely no digital conversions, to unleash the sonic depth, accuracy and power of every signal. The entire signal path remains purely analog without any sampling to capture amazing clarity. The photon density modulated optical information travels at the speed of light to eliminate any capacitance, inductances, skin effects, phase shifts and signal loss up to 200m. The result is a seductively quiet background, luscious harmonics and a transparent three-dimensional soundstage.
Ground-Breaking Technology
Figuratively and literally speaking, Photon technology is truly ground-breaking. The photon density modulated light signal actually does break the ground between components yielding a signal largely (or completely with the Photon Battery Power Pack) unaffected by humming noise along the ground plane. With the signal path completely isolated from the ground, the Photon AMP ensures that there is no possibility of the cables passing noise between components, nor acting as an antenna for RFI or EMI induced distortions, which keeps the noise floor extremely low and reduces smearing. Please note: Because there are no physical wires built within the Photon AMP, an extra ground wire may be needed in order to ensure components are on the same ground level.

Photon Battery Pack IV (optional)
The CyberLight Battery Pack IV is designed for the Photon cables completely isolated and immune from RFI and EMI. The newly-improved Photon Battery Pack IV contains two batteries (Battery A and Battery B) within the single unit in order to perform DC output and DC input simultaneously. Retail price: $500 (120V) and $550 (240V). The CyberLight Battery IV can also be used for the Photon application.
Upgrades from CyberLight Cables to Photon Cables
Until September 1, 2008, you can upgrade your CyberLight P2A or CyberLight Wave to Photon AMP or Photon Link for $700 if your CyberLight not longer than 5 meter.
If your CyberLight is longer than 5 meter, the upgrade price is $1000.
