{"product_id":"emerald-mkiv","title":"Emerald MKIV","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJust from its colorway, it's easy to see that Emerald is one of our re\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003epresentative \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eproducts—after all, the green-and-gold combination is our brand signature. That's precisely why we placed extraordinary emphasis on this upgrade: we needed the design philosophy behind Emerald to fully align with our latest product vision. For the fourth-generation Emerald, we've refined both the conductor formulation and internal architecture, delivering an overall 40% performance improvement over the previous design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhere the previous generation used a symmetrical layout, this iteration adopts an asymmetrical design—introducing greater sonic diversity and structural versatility. The internal conductor architecture consists of 7 conductor groups. Six of these groups use a 4:3:4 mixed-strand configuration, combining three distinct materials—visually identifiable as 4 gold, 3 green, and 4 black strands. All 11 strands within each group are individually insulated, enriching the material diversity to produce a fuller, more textured sound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 7th conductor group is unique: it uses non-conductive fiberglass as a central support, wrapped with polished silver in a flat conductor helix. This serves to extend the high-frequency reach and broaden the horizontal soundstage. The reason we applied this helical wrap to only this one conductor group is to precisely control the wrap length—through extensive testing, we found that this specific wrap length best complements the overall conductor materials and their sonic character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn aesthetics and build, Emerald MKIV features a deeper, richer tone compared to its predecessor, with a slightly thicker overall diameter. Yet the flexibility remains unchanged—which is itself a meaningful engineering achievement. Packing in more conductors would theoretically make the cable stiffer, but we upgraded the outer jacket material to achieve further weight reduction while significantly improving long-term durability.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe overall architecture delivers a marked increase in micro-detail retrieval, instrument separation, and low-frequency presence over the previous generation. The musical background remains deep and pristine, while bass guitars and low-register instruments gain a noticeably more powerful and impactful presentation. Vocal density sees a substantial lift, cleanly separated from instruments and effects—creating a much stronger sense of three-dimensional layering. This physically engineered EQ structure helps the system achieve a comprehensive boost in overall sonic density, delivering a lush, grand listening experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHere's the description of Emerald MKIII:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Emerald MKIII introduces structural innovation for the first time, enhancing the core formula by 30%, and strengthening the low-frequency envelopment and fullness. Additionally, a flat silver spiral structure has been incorporated on the exterior, increasing the music's detail expression, separation, and the lateral width of the soundstage by 30% compared to the previous generation. Due to optimizations in the low and mid frequencies, the overall listening experience now leans towards warmth, marking a distinct departure from the previous generation while still maintaining the classic style of the Emerald series. Between the main core and the spiral structure, we have implemented an isolation layer to allow different-shaped materials to better independently perform their functions. As a result, the differences between various tones become more pronounced, coupled with the black background provided by the materials, creating a lively and tense auditory experience. The separation of different frequencies in the music may give a sudden rush, deliberately introducing a style that brings significant changes to the system and, at the same time, surprises the listener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHere's the description of Emerald MKII:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe original Emerald was released three years ago, and it has been warmly welcomed by many of our customers as one of the best-sounding products. Naturally, nothing is perfect. Some complained about its color and some voiced disagreement with its green color. In the Japanese market, the Emerald covers itself with a black sheath, using only an emerald-colored y-split part to reveal its identity. Since then, although we were somewhat caught in the quandary between our pride for the Emerald and opposing ideas, we eventually set our mind on upgrading the product so it can be welcomed by everyone. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn 2019, we revamped our brand image with the color combination of dark emerald and gold, which we believe best represent the philosophy and ideas that we inject into the brand. Green is the color of life, renewal, and energy, while gold is the color of the precious metal that asserts extravagance, wisdom, and power. Interestingly, in recent years, the younger generations of Chinese are associating green with the notion of forgiveness. Not only do we want our customers to feel life in their music through our luxurious products, but we also want our products to forgive the ramifications due to the imperfections in recordings during the compression process, so we can start to learn to forgive all the imperfections in life after having such a perfect acoustic experience. The new Emerald MKII, wearing the outfit of our brand color, is set to be the epitome of our philosophy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterial and technology-wise, we upgraded the copper base of the Emerald MKII to a higher purity type of copper, and we mixed two new elements into the compound for a fascinating copper alloy. High purity silver tightly wraps around the copper core, and the entire material is then pulled into fine threads with our state-of-the-art technology, which is our forte. The end result is an amazingly soft and flexible cable body with further detailed high frequencies, more elasticity in the bass, a wider sound stage, and better overall clarity and transparency compared to that of the original Emerald. Of course, the Emerald MKII uses our usual elastic-inert isolating sheath to minimize unwanted microphonics and to ensure softness for comfort during use.
