  • The text on the image is describing the features of an HDMI Pearl 48 cable. The cable is made of solid long-grain copper A/V conductors, which provide better conductivity and signal transmission. The cable also has tinned copper ground reference, which helps reduce noise and improve signal quality. Additionally, the cable has a level 1 noise-dissipation feature, which further reduces noise and ensures better signal quality. The cable is also direction-controlled, which means it can only be used in one direction to prevent any potential damage or interference. Finally, the cable has a CL3/FT4 PVC jacket, which provides protection and durability.
  • Long-Grain Copper Solid conductors eliminate strand interaction to significantly reduce distortion. Most HDMI cables on the market are made from Long-Grain Copper, which provides better conductivity and noise reduction compared to traditional conductors. AudioQuest, a well-known brand in the audio industry, offers HDMI cables that utilize Long-Grain Copper technology to deliver high-quality audio and video signals.

    Most bang for your buck! Most value! No Problems with them soo far. They come with plastic end caps to protect the ends of the cable. Oh and twisty ties to keep them nice, neat and compact while traveling and while put away. Excellent quality manufacturing.

    Great HDMI for high quality data transfers for video or audio. I use this one for the Xbox, and it produces excellent frame rate transfers. I'd recommend getting it a little bit longer if you're someone who moves things around or likes to go clean/dust out their entertainment system area often. The Pearl replaced a Monster HDMI Blue cable and definitely provides an excellent value vs the cost of another monster cable.

    The picture and sound zoom right through. I haven't done comparison testing with other cables yet. I replaced my system's Rocketfish HDMI for the better specs. These have directional properties for transmission from receiver to tv. And e-Arc from tv to receiver. The ocean/pearl are the beginning of AQ's lineup, I'd like to see and hear what the higher up cables can do with my system.

    I have 2 8k TV's and a 4k OLED and WOW, what a difference the right HDMI cable makes! If you want to get the most out of your high end OLED or QLED then you NEED these cables. Sure, they are pricey but well worth it.

    Great cables! Bought to replace a previous cable that I was using on my Apple TV 4K and these fixed the audio dropouts and longer than normal buffering after FF/RW that I was getting. Wasn't expecting that at all.
