Unlike most AC cables that constrict or compress an audio-provoked transient, AudioQuest AC cables combine low DC resistance and zero (no) characteristic impedance in order to deliver uncompressed transients on demand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilver-Plated Drain Wires\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDirection-controlled Silver-Plated shield conductors efficiently drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground via the third “ground” pin.

AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise is drained away from where it will cause distortion. The correct direction is determined by listening to every batch of metal conductors used in every AudioQuest audio cable. When applicable, arrows are clearly marked on the connectors to ensure superior sound quality. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor most models of AQ cable, the arrows not only indicate the direction that optimizes metal-directionality as part of Noise-Dissipation, but also indicates non-symmetrical attachment of shield and GND in order to optimize full-system performance. A fundamental aspect of AudioQuest's multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors ensure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect Surface Copper Conductors:\u003c\/strong\u003e The astonishingly smooth and pure Perfect-Surface processed conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries and surface discontinuities that exist in any metal conductor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSemi Solid Concentric Conductors:\u003c\/strong\u003e In our Semi-Solid Concentric conductor topology, strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle, significantly reducing strand-interaction distortion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilver Plated Drain Wires:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direction-controlled Silver-Plated shield conductors efficiently drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground via the third “ground” pin.
