AudioQuest Pegasus Interconnect Cable
Best high-fidelity interconnect for audiophiles seeking pristine, noise-free signal clarity.
The AudioQuest Pegasus Analog Interconnect offers a ZERO-Tech design for linear, wide-bandwidth noise dissipation, bringing advanced sonic advantages to a broader audience. It features Direction-Controlled Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors, a Carbon/Graphene Mesh-Network, and copper-plated plug casings with hanging-silver over red-copper plugs. The cable increases silver content in its RF Drain-Wires to 6% for reduced distortion and improved RF noise dissipation. Its unique ZERO-Tech design eliminates characteristic impedance, ensuring uncompressed transients and consistent RF noise dissipation across all frequencies. This interconnect is designed to deliver exceptional focusing, definition, and spatiality, enhancing the overall audio experience.

Know before you buy
ZERO-Tech eliminates characteristic impedance, which prevents the cable from compressing transients. This ensures that your audio signal remains uncompressed and maintains consistent noise dissipation across all frequencies.
These conductors have an exceptionally smooth and pure surface, which minimizes harshness and distortion compared to standard copper. This results in a cleaner, more refined signal transfer.
The Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) creates a stable electrostatic field that saturates and polarizes the cable's insulation. This significantly reduces time-delay distortion, resulting in a clearer, more focused soundstage.
AudioQuest tests every conductor to determine the direction of grain flow, which dictates how the signal travels most efficiently. By installing the cable according to the arrows on the plugs, you ensure the lowest possible noise and interference.
This system combines the ZERO-Tech design, a Carbon/Graphene mesh-network, and silver-plated drain wires to block and drain radio-frequency noise. It prevents external interference from reaching your sensitive audio components.
Yes, these are standard RCA-to-RCA interconnects designed for stereo audio components. They are compatible with any equipment featuring standard RCA analog inputs and outputs.
