AudioQuest

Analogue Audio Interconnect Cable

Crafted to connect various audio electronics with exceptional flexibility and versatility. Enhance your audio setup and enjoy a more natural, vibrant listening experience.

DESCRIPTION

Solid Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) Conductors
AudioQuest’s Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) delivers exceptionally clean sound by minimizing electrical and magnetic strand interaction. Its smooth, pure surface and proprietary processing reduce distortion significantly.

Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation
AQ's Noise-Dissipation technology absorbs and reflects RFI, preventing it from distorting the signal and ground reference.

Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation
Foamed-PE insulation, with its high air content and low-loss properties, reduces distortion by minimizing energy absorption and maintaining clarity.

Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry
Designed for single-ended applications, this geometry separates ground and shield paths for enhanced performance and lower impedance.

Cold-Welded, Gold-Plated Terminations
Cold-welded terminations use a high-pressure process instead of solder, reducing distortion and maintaining signal purity.

Key Features & Technology Explained

Solid Conductors

Solid conductors prevent strand-interaction, a major source of dynamic distortion in cables.

Metal

To an even greater extent than LGC, higher-purity Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries.

Metal

Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation shields noise effectively, absorbing and reflecting most RFI before it reaches the ground layer.

Insulation

Foamed-Polyethylene’s high air content minimises energy absorption for clearer sound.

Direction Controlled

All conductors controlled for RF-noise directionality.
