SOLID PSC+ CONDUCTORS: Solid conductors prevent strand
interaction, a major source of cable distortion. Extremely high-purity
Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries
which exist within any metal conductor, nearly eliminating harshness and
greatly increasing clarity compared to OFHC, OCC, 8N and other coppers.
TEFLON AIR-TUBES: Air is a nearly perfect dielectric.
Once DBS is attached (for 2 weeks), the normal irritation caused by un-biased
Teflon is eliminated.
DIELECTRIC-BIAS SYSTEM (DBS, US Pat #7,126,055): All
insulation slows down the signal on the conductor inside. When insulation is
un-biased, it slows down parts of the signal differently, a big problem for
very time sensitive multi-octave audio.
AudioQuests DBS creates a strong stable electrostatic
field which saturates and polarizes (organizes) the molecules of the
insulation. This minimizes both energy storage in the insulation and the
multiple nonlinear time-delays. Sound appears from a surprisingly black
background with unexpected detail and dynamic contrast. The DBS packs batteries
will last for years. A test button and LED allow for the occasional battery
check.
NOISE-DISSIPATION SYSTEM: 100% shield coverage is easy.
Preventing captured RF Interference from modulating the equipments
ground-reference requires AQs Noise-Dissipation System. Metal and Carbon-Loaded
synthetics prevent most RFI from reaching the equipments ground-plane.
TRIPLE-BALANCED: The 3 conductors in Triple-Balanced
Colorado cables insure that whether prepared with RCA or XLR plugs, the
positive and negative signals have equally low distortion conducting paths. The
100% coverage shield is never used as an inferior conductor.
COLD-WELD SYSTEM: Novel plug design enables a perfect
heat-free connection between cable and plug. XLR plugs are also available. |
