What’s going on in the world of Atlas.

Andrew Simpson discovers there‘s a lot to like about the Hyper RCA R1.

”And it’s this sense of evenness in its delivery that elevates the RCA R1 over other entry to mid level cables. Sure, many of its rivals will do most things right, while perhaps excelling in one area over another (often aiding system tuning), but the R1’s skill is in how it allows all elements within the soundstage to be delivered consistently.”

Declaring them to be ‘a minor revelation,’ Paul Rigby compares the new Hyper RCA R1 to a broad spectrum of competitors.

”For the price, I was surprised at just how good the Atlas Hyper RCA R1 interconnects were. I must emphasise that I compared them against my elite references.”

HiFi+ Editor's Choice
May 2026

Editor’s Choice Award from HiFiPlus+ for the Arran Ultra L RCA.

Already acclaimed as setting a new benchmark, our flagship interconnect gathers more praise.

“Moving over [to Arran] from the interconnects that I have been using for over a decade felt like going from a flat to a three- dimensional soundstage, even though the older cable is no slouch when it comes to imaging. I was, frankly, gobsmacked.”

“There’s sufficient detail – of texture and timbre, as well as of depth and intensity – to make the Atlas a completely convincing listen.”

And in quick succession, another review for the Ailsa Duo. Can reviews be like buses?

Jason Kennedy at The Ear concludes the Ailsa XLR Duo is so good he doesn’t want to give it back.

“There can’t be many balanced cables that compete with its imaging and dynamic capabilities. I will be doing what I can to hold onto them!”

Five In A Row.

Very gratifying to see an array of Atlas products listed for the fifth consecutive year in Part-Time Audiophile’s ‘Best Cables, Power and Grounding Buyers Guide Summer 2025.’

Read the original review, featuring Atlas Hyper, Mavros, Eos, and Grun: “Separately, these products all work. Together they are formidable. The Grun system has an edge because it’s such a holistic approach, not to mention an economical one.”

High praise for the latest-generation Mavros Transpose Grun speaker cable from Holland’s FWD magazine.

“...I have never heard it as delicate and nuanced as with this Mavros Transpose Grun in my listening room… It is above all the more organic imaging, the ease and the increased calm that stands out.”

Good sound is good sound in any language, but use your browser to translate if your Dutch is a little rusty.
