Long-Grain Copper (LGC)

Long-Grain Copper (LGC) minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries that exist within any metal conductor.



Semi-Solid Concentric Conductors

In our Semi-Solid Concentric conductor topology, strands are packed more tightly and never change position within the bundle, significantly reducing strand-interaction distortion.



Direction-Controlled Conductors

All drawn metal strands or conductors have a non-symmetrical, and therefore directional, grain structure. 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. For 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.

Natalie Q. ★★★★★

The Long-Grain Copper construction cleaned up the high end noticeably—less glare, more air around instruments. For a refurbished unit, it looks and performs like new, with no issues after a month of daily use.

Ella ★★★★★

I was skeptical about refurbished cables, but the semi-solid concentric conductors in this one made a noticeable difference on my turntable setup. Bass feels tighter and the noise floor dropped compared to the cheap cable I had before. For the price, this was a solid pickup.

Lucy ★★★★★

Swapped this in on my amp and the background got noticeably quieter, which I wasn't really expecting from a refurb. The long-grain copper construction seems to do what it claims, and the semi-solid concentric conductors feel hefty without being stiff. For the price of a certified refurb, I'd buy ano
