8085 BK (Gu): pure copper with 24K gold plating
Sound character: warm and refined
IeGO Dreamworks is a manufacturer of high-quality audiophile cables and connectors, known worldwide for some of the finest connectors on the market—regardless of price. Based in Taiwan, the company has been active in the audio industry since 2000. IeGO also produces components for some of the world's leading cable brands. One of their flagship products is a pure silver IEC connector—of exceptional purity, at a price others charge for only gold- or rhodium-plated versions.
Unlike many competitors, who use phosphor bronze or brass, IeGO manufactures all its copper-based connectors using Furukawa copper, known for its excellent conductivity. The copper used is Japanese "prime grade red copper" (99.99% pure), which undergoes an acid bath to remove impurities. Each connector is then cryogenically treated at -240°C for 20 hours, which reduces internal stresses in the material and improves both conductivity and hardness. This ensures the contacts remain stable and deformable.
The IeGo IEC plug 8085 BK (Gu) is made of solid Furukawa copper, plated with 24-karat gold for oxidation protection, and then hand-polished. The housing is made of a special PVC, manufactured in Japan by Genera, and offers excellent mechanical and acoustic properties.
