AudioQuest digital coaxial cables are designed to minimize distortion over a wide bandwidth. Speed is important for transferring large files and for HD video. For digital coaxial audio, speed is critical for reconstructing the analog waveform. Temporal degradation (jitter) causes the sound to be small and flat instead of 3D, harsh and harsh instead of smooth and clear.
Solid silver conductors with perfect surface (PSS) reduce distortion and maximize RF noise dissipation.
The dielectric polarization system with radio frequency trap ensures that radio frequency noise is not induced in the signal conductors.
The 7-layer carbon-based noise dissipation system prevents RF interference from reaching the equipment's mass plane.
The hard cell foam insulation ensures the critical geometry of the signal pair and reduces distortion.
