AudioQuest Big Sur Interconnect Cable
The AudioQuest Big Sur cable is a landmark in affordable analog interconnects, designed to let the natural beauty of your music flow through. It features Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ Conductors (PSC+) for low distortion and a clean sound. The cable utilizes Foamed-Polyethylene insulation, which absorbs minimal energy and has a benign distortion profile, reducing out-of-focus effects. Its Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS) effectively prevents captured RF Interference from modulating the equipment's ground reference. The Double-Balanced Asymmetrical Geometry is purpose-designed for single-ended applications, offering a lower impedance on the ground for a richer, more dynamic experience. Terminating in 3.5mm connectors, it's ideal for portable devices and other gear using mini-plugs.
