Audioquest: Invest In The Best |
|
| You're looking for an HDMI cable because it provides uncompressed audio and video in one single cable—eliminating the need for a dozen other cables. But you want a high-quality cable—and there's a plethora to choose from—so what could possibly make Audioquest cables that much more superior? Well, let me tell you. These cables are babied. They're coddled. Each cable's hand is held from its conception in Bill Low's head until it is carefully swaddled in product packaging and shipped off to your home. |
|
The Perfect Entry Point |
|
| Audioquest's mission is to provide a cable for every audio/video need as well as a price for every pocketbook, without sacrificing one iota of performance quality. The HDMI-A is Audioquest's entry-level HDMI cable. Priced affordably, it's still a superior performer. The solid conductive-coated copper core keeps distortion to a minimum. The large, 28-AW gauge ensures distortion stays at a minimum, while a skin-foam-skin polyethylene jacket provides exceptional non-conductive insulation. |

Damage Control—Let's Compare Apples. . . |
|
| It's important to know that an audio or video signal cannot be improved upon—it's as good as it's going to get once it leaves your amp, DVD player, whatever component you're running. So why bother with a high-end cable? Simple: the signal can't be improved, but it can be damaged. Significantly. A lesser-quality cable leaves your signal wide-open to instabilities. A lesser-quality cable is constructed of bundled, twisted strands of conductive material—up to 200 to 2000 strands per bundle. And as the signal wants to travel the path of least resistance (down the outside of the bundle), all those twisted strands inhibit the signal. They draw the signal from the outside of the bundle to the inside, where it fights to get back to the outside again. What's the result? Distortion. Lost data. Poor sound quality. |

. . .To Oranges |
|
| Audioquest, on the other hand, engineers their cables with the highest quality, perfectly gauged solid-core, copper and silver conductors. And each conductor strand is slowly and precisely loomed, not twisted, into the final cable bundle—and it's important to note that the maximum amount of strands Audioquest has used in their longest cable, for flexibility requirements, is 32 (that's a few less than 200, and a lot less than 2000). Once they have constructed the conductor, Audioquest wraps it in the dielectric (a fancy word for the insulating material) to keep the cable at peak performance levels at all times by absorbing as little energy as possible in order to avoid the reintroduction of energy (distortion) back into the conductor. |

Audioquest Makes Sure You're Headed In The Right Direction |
|
| Did you know, all cables are directional? Yes, all cables, from hardware store electrical cable to the finest pure silver cables have a direction—much like wood has a grain. It has to do with molecular structure, which we won't get into. What you should know though is that a cable sounds much better when the signal is traveling in the proper direction. And all Audioquest cables are marked for direction, so you don't have to figure it out. |
|
The Bottom Line |
|
| What Audioquest is doing is engineering cables with conductors that have all the proper attributes, for decreased distortion. They've arranged the conductors so the signal travels down a straight path, for decreased distortion. They've wrapped the conductor metal in a non-conductive material, to decrease distortion. The result is an astonishingly pure, very stable signal. Starting to make sense? Audioquest loathes distortion. You'll love Audioquest. |
