AudioQuest - Mackenzie RCA > RCA 4.9' Analog Audio Interconnect Cable - Brown on Black

AudioQuest Pearl RJ/E prepared Cat 7 Ethernet cables use Solid Long-Grain Copper conductors, which eliminate strand interaction, one of the biggest sources of distortion in cables, for clearer, more dynamic and involving sound. Superior conductor metals minimize distortion thanks to having fewer grain boundaries and fewer impurities (such as oxides) at those boundaries. Solid High-Density Polyethylene insulation helps maintain critical signal-pair geometry. Of course, all AudioQuest Ethernet cables are controlled for RF-noise directionality, efficiently dissipating noise away from the system's vulnerable audio circuitry; arrows indicate the direction (from source to destination) for the best audio performance.

AudioQuest's Flat Series speaker cable is built around a Semi-Solid Concentric design. While this is not as transparent as AudioQuest's Solid-Core Conductors, Semi-Solid wire is significantly more resolved than conventional stranded bundle wire.

No matter how perfect an AC power source, distortion is added within any AC cable. Even the most sophisticated filters and power supplies cannot eliminate this Transient Intermodulation Distortion as the induced RF noise modulates the low-level audio video signal. NRG-Y2 cables use direction-controlled Long-Grain-Copper strands in a Semi-Solid Concentric conductor arrangement in which strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle. This construction significantly reduces strand interaction distortion. The greater purity and less complicated grain structure within LGC copper further reduces distortion.
