About The AudioQuest Carbon Coaxial Digital Cable

AudioQuest Carbon Digital Coaxial cables are designed to minimise distortion across an extremely wide bandwidth and a smart way to connect your high-performance digital gear. The most popular application is connecting a CD player to a digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) or signal processor. AudioQuest's digital coaxial cables use materials and construction techniques.

Digital Coaxial cables may look like a typical RCA interconnect, but that is where the similarity ends. 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.

Solid 5% Silver Conductors: Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications. These signals, being such a high frequency, travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but priced much closer to solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost effective way of manufacturing very high-quality digital coax cables.

Note: The extra silver content over Cinnamon is the reason Carbon costs a little more.

Hard-Cell Foam Insulation: Hard-Cell Foam insulation is used exclusively in most of AudioQuest’s video and digital audio cables. Similar to Foamed-PE, it is nitrogen injected to create air pockets. ‘Hard’ foam is used because the stiffness of the material allows the conductors in the cable to maintain the same relationship with each other along the full length of the cable, thus ensuring that the characteristic impedance of the cable is consistent.

100% Shield Coverage (Foil + Silver-Plated Braid): A silver-plated braid shield and an additional layer of copper foil effectively block detail-robbing electro-magnetic interference (EMI). Shielding always plays an important role in any cable design, but the shield on coax interconnect plays an especially important role because it functions not only as a shield but a return path as well. Because of this, AudioQuest pays special attention to the shield’s metal quality and the fabrication techniques as both will affect the sound and the picture.

Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS): Cables are a common path for unwanted noise to enter your system, but AudioQuest's multi-layer Noise Dissipation System (NDS) sets up a strong defence. Typical cable shield systems absorb and then drain noise and RF energy to component ground, which modulates and distorts the critical "reference" ground plane. 100% shield coverage is easy. Preventing captured RF Interference from modulating the equipment’s ground reference requires AudioQuest’s Noise-Dissipation System.

Terminations: Carbon's RCA connectors are plated with "Hanging-Silver", a very thick and unusually pure direct-plating made possible by submerging individual plugs in pure silver, which is a superior approach to the typical process of electroplating batches of plugs by rolling them together in a drum. AudioQuest uses extremely pure Purple Copper for the base plugs, which are fastened by cold welding — a solder-less process that uses high pressure and silver paste to minimise signal loss. By contrast, solder tends to impede the signal, and heating the silver can negatively affect its conductivity.
