AudioQuest Angel Interconnect Cable
Best premium extension for audiophiles seeking uncompromising signal clarity.
The AudioQuest Angel is a premium analog interconnect cable designed for uncompromising audio performance. It features solid 100% Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) conductors, known for their exceptional clarity and dynamic contrast. The cable utilizes FEP Air-Tube insulation to minimize energy absorption and distortion. AudioQuest's Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) is incorporated to organize the insulation's molecules, reducing time-delay distortion and enhancing the audio background's silence and detail. A Carbon-Based 3-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS) prevents captured radio frequency interference from affecting the equipment's ground reference. This specific model is an 8.0-meter cable with a 3.5mm female connector on one end and a 3.5mm male connector on the other.

Know before you buy
Perfect-Surface Silver conductors provide a smoother, more refined signal path than standard copper. This material minimizes graininess and harshness, resulting in superior clarity and more dynamic contrast in your audio.
The DBS creates a constant electrostatic field that organizes the cable's insulation molecules. This process reduces time-delay distortion, which helps create a quieter background and allows for more micro-detail to emerge in your music.
The NDS acts as a shield against radio frequency interference. By preventing this noise from reaching your equipment's ground reference, it ensures the signal remains clean and free from external electronic pollution.
Yes, the AudioQuest Angel is engineered to maintain signal integrity over its 8-meter length. The combination of high-purity silver conductors and advanced shielding minimizes the degradation typically associated with longer cable runs.
This configuration is commonly used as an extension cable for high-end headphones or to connect portable audio devices to home stereo systems. It allows you to bridge the gap between a 3.5mm output and a device requiring a 3.5mm input.
Yes, FEP Air-Tube insulation minimizes the amount of energy absorbed by the cable's dielectric material. By keeping the signal in the air, it significantly reduces distortion and preserves the purity of the audio signal.
