2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
OPREX is a cable brand with a completely new concept that aims to achieve sound quality that approaches that of Ex-pro high-quality cables, by eliminating plug printing, simplifying packaging, reviewing work processes, and stabilizing and expanding the production line to significantly reduce costs.We also produce carefully selected parts without compromising.OPREX is a high-cost performance cable that overturns the conventional wisdom of low-priced cables. OR SERIES has a relatively soft cable that makes it easy to handle. Since many overseas-made jacks are used for guitars and amplifiers, we have created and used original OPREX plugs that enable stable connections to these jacks. You can avoid contact failures that can cause noise and deterioration of sound quality. The plug cap has been made compact and lightweight while still maintaining the length (35mm, 12Φ) that allows for easy insertion and removal of the jack. This avoids contact between the tremolo arm and the cable plug that occurs when inserting it into a boat-shaped jack such as a Strat. We have poured a lot of technology into the Ex-pro high-end cable, but with OPREX, which has an unprecedented concept of reducing costs, we started by adopting the "non-negotiable!" point. Adoption of oxygen-free copper (OFC) for core wire and shield wire. A Φ5 highly flexible original cable that has been renewed in response to musicians' requests for a ``thin, soft, and sturdy cable.'' By suppressing the non-negotiable points, we have achieved sound quality, low noise, and durability that approaches that of high-end cables. I never want to use the cheap phone plugs that are often attached to low-priced cables. This is a non-negotiable point! The contact surface with the jack changes depending on the shape of the tip of the phone plug. Therefore, overseas-made plugs provide a stable connection for the overseas-made jacks that are often used in amplifiers and guitars. Like the original plugs manufactured by Ex-pro, we have created OPREX original plugs with a shape that is compatible with overseas jacks. And this is also important. It is said that the use of "iron" in the contact/connection parts of audio cables, such as plugs and jacks, is completely unthinkable in terms of sound quality. For a long time, magnets were often used to judge whether a cable was good or not. Some low-priced cables still use such plugs. However, OPREX original plugs naturally do not react to magnets! The function of the plug cap is to suppress resonance. The negative effects of the plug cap's resonance can cause the sound to become muddy and have excessive resonance. In order to suppress these, we have created an original cap made from machined brass. In the regular series, we succeeded in making the cap small and lightweight while maintaining a length that allows for easy insertion and removal when connecting to an amplifier or guitar, and of course, the cap can suppress resonance. For the Patch series cap, we were particular about making it as small and lightweight as possible, and we also gave top priority to strength and prevention of resonance. Therefore, the patch series plug caps are 10mm shorter than the regular series and made thinner at 12Φ, making it easier to handle and avoid problems such as noise caused by plugs touching each other or the chassis when wiring inside effector boards or racks.
