Quality promise

Oehlbach quality promise and selection guide

Oehlbach has many customers, all of whom have different demands on the connections and components of their systems. There are those who simply want above-average technology at a very good price-performance ratio and are less concerned with the details. Others demand a little more - for example, even better materials for even better signal transmissions that almost reach the limits of what is technically possible. And some even want us to realise this technically possible maximum for them and create unique products that define perfection and state-of-the-art in their field. You know what you want. We have created the Oehlbach quality promise so that you can always find the right product quickly online or in stores. In one word, it defines the class of all Oehlbach products and at the same time allows you to select suitable Oehlbach solutions for your home entertainment more easily. Choose Performance, Excellence or State of the Art.

The Easy Connect products open up the world of Oehlbach home entertainment accessories to beginners. Here you will find additional alternatives to the popular Performance series if you want to equip your hi-fi, TV and other entertainment electronics with high-quality Oehlbach cables and other accessories for the first time. Easy Connect shows you everything that has made Oehlbach so popular for over 45 years: innovative technology and selected components for maximum entertainment quality. For example, Easy Connect cables offer premium-quality, high-purity, oxygen-free OFC copper throughout all cables with electrical conductors. On every plug of the cables you will find 24 carat gold-plated contact surfaces, which ensure high corrosion resistance and thus long durability of the cables from the Easy Connect series. We are absolutely convinced of this quality and durability and therefore guarantee it - with a 30-year manufacturer's warranty on the function of all Easy Connect cables. You can rely on these Oehlbach accessories at any time for many years and then experience the many advantages of Easy Connect and Oehlbach for yourself day after day.

The Performance range marks the entry into the world of Oehlbach. At the same time, however, our Performance products are anything but entry-level solutions, but already offer you outstanding performance with high-quality materials at an excellent price-performance ratio. What is otherwise already considered premium is for us a standard for the performance label: for example, 24 carat gold-plated contact plugs or inner conductors made of OFC copper, which is elaborately produced oxygen-free to make loss-free signal transmissions possible due to its purity.

The Excellence class goes a great deal further. Here, for example, cable connections are built around an even higher-quality silver-plated inner conductor, which can increase the transmission quality close to the optimum. In addition, we equip these cables with a further increased shielding of oxygen-free copper braiding and additionally shielded full metal plugs or other strictly controlled components. Oehlbach Excellence products thus easily meet higher to very high demands for top-class home entertainment quality. They definitely play in the Champions League. But the role of favourite there belongs to others:

Under the State of the Art label, Oehlbach shows everything that is currently technically possible. In cars, this performance class is called super sports cars. Oehlbach calls it State of the Art. These products represent the latest state of technical development with all the new innovations in connection technology for home entertainment. Inner conductors here are made of high-purity, absolutely oxygen-free HPOCC copper. It is not drawn like other copper conductors, but elaborately cast in a special process. This means that even the last crystalline structures that could impair signal transmission disappear and monocrystalline copper emerges as a perfect conductor. We manufacture matching connectors from solid metal and gold-plat them with 24 carat in order to reduce losses or interference at the interfaces to an absolute minimum. With Oehlbach State of the Art, there is one thing you can always rely on: more is not possible.
