C-004

Blade Features

Contacts
The blades of the P/C-004 are made of beryllium copper, which has the same high conductivity and sufficient mechanical properties as those of the M1/F1.

This is an appropriate choice of material for the flagship model. Beryllium copper is an extremely aged alloy that is heat-treated to give it extremely high mechanical properties. This C-004 blade has a high level of contact area and rigidity with a thickness of 1.0 mm and a width of 6.0 mm, and a strong hold with a weighted weight of over 8 kg. This reduces vibration at the joints and achieves lossless transmission..

Plating
The blades of the P/C-004 are plated with the same combination of platinum and palladium as the M1/F1. The first layer of platinum is 0.5μm. and the second layer of palladium is 0.3μ.

Once punched as a part, the material is mechanically barrel polished and then buffed one by one by human hands. There is no other example of this two-stage polishing process being applied to audio equipment. Mirror finish and direct plating. The simplicity of the product is the reason why it must be made to the highest standards. Oyaide's philosophy and craftsmanship are condensed here as well.

Contact point capable of withstanding a pulling load of 30 kg
The tensile strength of the blade holder and cable clamp is more than 30 kg, and even a slight pull will not cause the cable to come loose. This is also the result of careful consideration of safety.

No-compromise parts selection, not only just blades parts

Non-magnetic stainless steel screws
Oyaide's commitment to its products starts with a single screw. The screws used in the P/C series are custom-made stainless steel screws made for the P/C series, which are non-magnetic and, of course, have a narrower screw pitch to increase the contact area between the body and the cover.

As a result, the body and cover are not easily distorted, and the screws do not loosen easily.

Have you ever experienced over-torquing and having the threads crushed? All the screws used in our plugs are made of stainless steel, so there is no possibility of the screw threads being crushed or the heads being removed even if excessive torque is applied. In addition, stainless steel itself is non-magnetic, so there is no shivering at the connector, providing a high S/N sound.
