AudioQuest Elements Series Fire XLR / RCA Analog-Audio Interconnects

Product Description

Solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) Conductors

Solid conductors prevent both strand-to-strand contacts and magnetic interaction, major sources of distortion. Surface quality is critical because a conductor can be considered as a rail-guide for both the electric fields within a conductor, and for the magnetic fields outside the conductor. While less perfectly processed silver can have the same irritating tweeter-in-your-face sound as silver-plated strands, PSS Silver’s smooth surface, extraordinarily careful processing, and high purity, deliver sound as smooth and beautiful as our PSC+ Copper, but with significantly higher resolution.

Dielectric-Bias System (DBS, US Pat #S 7,126,055 & 7,872,195 B1)

Creates a strong, stable electrostatic field which saturates and polarizes (organizes) the molecules of the insulation. This dramatically reduces dielectric induced smearing of the signal, letting sound emerge from a “black” background.

Carbon-Based 8-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS)

Shields-the-shield, reducing RFI contamination of the equipment ground plane.

FEP Air-Tubes (FEP is a Fluoro-Polymer)

Almost no contact between conductors and insulation reduces smearing and preserves dynamics.

Triple-Balanced Geometry

Proper ground-reference conductor prevents using the shield as an inferior ground-reference conductor.

Double-Contact Cold-Welded Reusable Plugs, Hanging-Silver Plating Directly Over Machined Solid Extreme-Purity Red Copper

Directions 

Because all drawn metal is directional, all audio cables are directional. AudioQuest analog and digital audio cables are all controlled for correct directionality. For the best sound, please use the cable with the arrows pointing from source to receiver or component.
