AudioQuest Mackenzie Interconnect Cable
The AudioQuest Mackenzie interconnect cable offers a significant upgrade for your audio system. It features solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors for exceptionally low distortion and a smooth, pure signal path. The cable utilizes Nitrogen-Injected Hard-Cell Foam insulation to maintain consistent conductor relationships and impedance. A 3-layer carbon-based Noise-Dissipation System effectively prevents RF interference from impacting your equipment's ground reference. Its triple-balanced geometry ensures low-distortion paths for both positive and negative signals, while the cold-welded, hanging-silver-over-purple-copper plugs eliminate solder distortion for a cleaner, clearer sound.
