Audience Studio TWO XLR Interconnects

Balanced connections reward a cable that stays out of the way. The Studio TWO XLR takes the natural, honest sound Audience's OHNO is known for and adds top-tier geometry and construction, for a balanced interconnect that comes at an accessible price.

Balanced connections, with the OHNO's honest voice and more.

The Design

Studio TWO is Audience's step beyond the much-loved OHNO. Audience builds it with geometry, construction techniques, and materials borrowed liberally from its top-tier designs, to deliver better performance than the OHNO at a price that stays accessible. Like every Audience cable, it's a low-mass design with light jacketing and light connectors, because mass absorbs energy and dulls the sound. Every Studio TWO cable is directional, marked with a gold arrow for the direction of signal travel, and handmade in San Marcos, California.

How It Sounds

Audience describes Studio TWO as delivering improved coherency and dynamics, with more realistic voices and instruments: more flesh on the bones, and more weight behind them. Rhythm and pacing are excellent, and high frequencies come across smooth, clean, and clear, with a touch of the sweetness that only good copper has.

Where It Fits

Choose it for balanced connections from DAC to preamp, preamp to power amplifier, or long runs to monoblocks. A single-cable version is available for a home theater center channel. It sits between OHNO and Studio ONE in Audience's lineup.
