AudioQuest - Forest Coaxial Digital Audio Cable - 2.46 ft. (.75m) - Green/Black
About this product
ForestAudioQuest Digital Coax cables are designed to minimize distortion across an extremely wide bandwidth. For many applications the speed of digital communication is important. Most visibly “speed” is about transferring large files as quickly as possible or carrying enough data for HD video. For Digital Coax audio “speed” is critical not because of how-much how-fast but because time relationships within a digital stream are critical to the reconstruction of the analog waveform that brings information music and joy to our ears. Time-based damage (jitter) to this information within the data package makes the sound small and flat instead of 3D harsh and foggy instead of smooth and clear.SOLID 0.5% SILVER CONDUCTORS: Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications. These signals being such a high frequency travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity silver the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable but priced much closer to solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost effective way of manufacturing very high-quality digital coax cables.HARD-CELL FOAM INSULATION: Hard-Cell Foam insulation is used exclusively in most of AudioQuest’s video and digital audio cables. Similar to Foamed-PE it is nitrogen injected to create air pockets. ‘Hard’ foam is used because the stiffness of the material allows the conductors in the cable to maintain the same relationship with each other along the full length of the cable thus ensuring that the characteristic impedance of the cable is consistent.100% SHIELD COVERAGE (FOIL + TINNED BRAID): Shielding always plays an important role in any cable design

Connectivity. FosPower's premium Digital Audio Coaxial Cable allows you to connect your Blu-ray/DVD player, HDTV, media player, set-top box, or any other audio device with a coaxial audio port to your audio processor, amplifier, audio mixer, sampler, synthesizer, speakers, or subwoofer through the S/PDIF interface. Recessed Port Friendly. Ensure a stable connection with all types of coaxial ports to prevent loss of signal, including recessed ports that can be difficult to access or connect to. Color Coding. The connector contains a very distinguishable orange base to help guide users to the correct port. Most digital audio ports are colored orange to be easily recognized, as devices increasingly have more input ports. 24k Gold-plated Connectors. FosPower's premium audio cables are made from high quality 24k gold plated connectors that resist corrosion and reduce tarnish. Dual Layer Braided and Mylar Shielding. Copper braided shielding combined with Aluminum Mylar shielding inside the PVC jacket provides cable flexibility and reduces unwanted EMI/RFI interference. PF Insulator. The core of the FosPower digital coaxial audio cables are covered with polyethylene foam (PF) dielectric insulation, which greatly minimizes signal loss. Specifications. Connectors. Type: RCA.
