For great sound from your audio system without breaking the bank, take a look at the Type 1 cable from AudioQuest. This cleverly-designed audio cable is designed to bring you great performance by minimizing distortion, but without spending more on your cables than on the system itself.

Why is this better than my other cable?

The Type 1 cable from AudioQuest certainly doesn't look like a typical speaker cable. In fact, at first glance, it looks more like an HDMI cable than speaker wire. But, this design makes it a better cable in actuality. Here's how: in a typical cable, multiple strands are coiled together to carry the signal. This causes interaction electrically and mechanically, causing irritation and one-note bass boom. In the Type 1 cables, solid conductors eliminate the harshness and confusion of strand interaction. Reason 2: typical speaker cables use "oxygen-free"copper, which is oxygen-reduced, but not selected for low distortion. Audioquest Type 1 uses long-grain copper, which has fewer impurities, fewer grain junctions, and lower distortion. Finally, in a standard cable, high-inductance geometry smears sound, reducing information transmitted, while in Type 1 cables, low-inductance geometry preserves time information to preserve dynamics and clarity. And as an added bonus, Spread Spectrum Technology uses multiple conductor sizes to greatly reduce the awareness of individual conductor character flaws. This all combines to form one great-sounding speaker cable.

Notes

This cable uses solid copper wires with PVC insulation. It is approximately 0.5" wide and under 0.25" thick. There are four wires, 2 positive, 2 negative in differing sizes. Type 1 cables are available in 30- or 50-ft. increments in either white or dark gray jacket color. These cables come unterminated, so spade or banana connectors must be purchased separately if needed. See accessories page for details.
