For everywhere that quality matters, AudioQuest offers the highest-quality solutions, from affordable to state-of-the-art. With the USB Type-C connection now commonplace on computers and mobile devices, we’ve designed our latest USB-C cables to provide outstanding performance for Type-C-enabled devices. These new models use and apply the same superior materials and design elements and are built using the same extreme data-center-capable manufacturing techniques as all AudioQuest digital cables—ingredients that have garnered our USB cables worldwide recognition for superior performance.
- Semi-Solid Concentric 5% Silver Conductors: Semi-Solid Concentric Conductors greatly reduce strand-interaction distortion and silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications like USB audio. An incredibly cost-effective way of manufacturing very high-quality USB cables.
- Hard-Cell Foam Insulation: Hard-cell foam insulation is nitrogen-injected to create air pockets. Because nitrogen (like air) neither absorbs nor releases energy from or into the conductor, it causes much less of the out-of-focus effect common to other materials, thereby reducing distortion.
- Direction-Controlled Conductors: A fundamental aspect of AudioQuest's multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors ensure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.
- Purpose and Performance: The Forest USB-C > C High-Definition Audio Cable is designed to connect USB-C devices, enhancing audio performance with its high-purity silver conductors. It fits seamlessly into your audio setup, offering a high-quality, cost-effective solution for optimal sound reproduction.
- Advanced Features for Clarity: With Semi-Solid Concentric 5% Silver Conductors, Forest ensures reduced strand-interaction distortion, making it perfect for high-frequency USB audio and video applications. This means cleaner, clearer, and more precise audio for your home systems.
- Audiophile-Grade Components: Featuring Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation, this cable preserves the signal by reducing radio-frequency interference. Experience outstanding sound dynamics and tonal accuracy, making it ideal for the discerning audiophile.
- Durability and Clever Design: The Hard-Cell Foam Insulation maintains stable impedance and minimizes distortion through its nitrogen-injected design, ensuring long-lasting and reliable use. The cable's Direction-Controlled Conductors enhance sound quality by properly dissipating induced noise.
- Superior Build Quality: Constructed with resilience in mind, the Forest cable combines silver-plated conductors with advanced noise-dissipation technology. This design not only enhances durability but also ensures ease of use with clear direction indicators on the connectors.
- Enhance Your Audio Experience: Upgrade your connection to achieve exceptional sound quality across devices like laptops, tablets, and AV receivers. With the Forest USB-C > C cable, unlock your audio potential and elevate your listening experience today.

Q: What is the purpose of the USB cable's conductor materials and construction techniques?
A: AudioQuest USB Type-C cables use specific materials and construction techniques to preserve the integrity of digital audio signals, minimize time-based distortions (jitter), and ensure accurate reconstruction of the analog waveform, resulting in enhanced sound quality.
Q: Why is the speed of digital communication important for this USB cable?
A: For USB audio (and HDMI audio), speed is critical because precise timing within a digital stream is essential for accurately reconstructing the analog waveform that conveys information, music, and enjoyment.
Q: Can this cable be used with a computer and a mobile device?
A: This USB-C cable is designed for use with computers and mobile devices.
A: The cable length is 4.9 feet.
