Product description
For everywhere that quality matters, AudioQuest offers the highest-quality solutions, from affordable to state-of-the-art. AudioQuestÆs range of USB cables use and apply the same superior materials and design elements and are built using the same extreme data-center-capable manufacturing techniques as all AudioQuest digital cablesùingredients that have garnered worldwide recognition for superior performance. Carbon uses extremely high-purity 5% Silver Solid conductors that have been directionally controlled for the most efficient dissipation of radio-frequency noise. Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications, such as digital audio. These signals, being such a high frequency, travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the conductorÆs surface is made of high-purity silver, the cableÆs performance comes very close to that of a solid silver cable, but at a price much closer to a solid copper cableùan incredibly cost-effective way of manufacturing very high-quality digital cables. Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation applies alternating layers of metal and carbon-loaded synthetics to ôshield the shield,ö absorbing and reflecting most of the noise/RF energy that would otherwise damage the audio signal.
