About this product

Connect audio source components to amplifiers and receivers with this AudioQuest Mackenzie analog-audio RCA cable, meticulously designed for exceptional performance and outstanding value. It features superior materials, time-tested design elements, and world-class construction to deliver best-in-class audio quality. High-purity Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ conductors minimize distortion, Foamed Polyethylene insulation preserves dynamic contrasts, and a Carbon Mesh-Network efficiently dissipates high-frequency noise. The result is cleaner, clearer, more naturally beautiful music.

Features
  • Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) Conductors

    Solid conductors prevent electrical and magnetic strand-interaction. Solid PSC+ Copper minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries and maximizes linear RF Noise-Dissipation. The result is clearer, cleaner, more naturally beautiful sound.

  • 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.

  • Carbon Mesh-Network

    AudioQuests Noise-Dissipation technology significantly reduces the RF Noise that reaches active circuits and causes masking effects.

  • Triple-Balanced Geometry

    AudioQuests Triple-Balanced Geometry uses a separate ground-reference conductor, so the cables shield is never used as an inferior conductor. The cables three conductors ensure that the positive and negative signals have equally superior, low-distortion conducting paths.

  • Cold-Welded Hanging-Silver over Pure Purple Copper Terminations

    Cold-welding bonds the plug to the wire using high pressure, preserving the character of the wire at the point of termination. Hanging-Silver directly over high-purity Purple Copper further ensures uncompromised signal transfer.

    Amazing performance and Quality

    These cables are phenomenal I am using them with my Schiit Bifrost 2 running directly balanced xlr out to my Lokius balanced out to my Singxer SA-1 Fully balanced Class A headphone amp running my Audeze LCD-X's with a balanced 4 pin xlr connector. Running balanced gives me a lower noise floor and greater detail in my music. I was using generic xlr cables, yet I was still skeptical of using higher end xlr cables in my system. I am a huge fan of Audioquest products I am using their cinnamon USB cable to plug into the Bifrost 2. Man I was so wrong the noise floor is lower than I could ever imagine, slight nuances where appearing in all my tracks I have never heard before. I was so impressed I bought 2 sets to completely replace my current cabling. I understand that spending large amounts of money on cables is crazy but If you simplify want to optimize your listing experience than these cables are definitely worth it.

    Great But ONLY 1 Cable

    [Employee of bestbuy] The product like basically everything audiotech is great but there’s only 1 cable. This isn’t specified in the listing description, I spent alot of time searching for it or informative pictures. I found one picture on the internet that showed 2 cables, honeslty every other xlr to xlr cable has been 2 cables. The lack of a description is fustrsting because it just prolongs & wastes everyones time.

AudioQuest - Cinnamon Coax 2.5' Digital Digital Audio Cable with RCA to RCA Connectors - Red on Black

AudioQuest 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.
