AudioQuest HD6 Pearl
18 AWG Bulk Cable for HD Video, RF, & Subwoofer Applications
Pearl HD6 is an 18 AWG cable for high-definition video, RF (cable and satellite TV) and subwoofer applications. Pearl is a high-performance, low-distortion cable that employs superior design and materials, and can be terminated in the field. Pearl features solid conductive-coated copper conductors and 100% shield coverage using a 3-layer shield.
Key Features & Technology Explained
Solid conductors prevent strand-interaction, a major source of dynamic distortion in cables.
High-purity Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors minimize distortion caused by grain boundaries.
Three alternating layers of metal and carbon-loaded synthetics "shield the shield," absorbing and reflecting most RF energy before it reaches the layer attached to ground.
All internal conductors are Direction-Controlled to reduce RF noise.
Solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) Conductors
Solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) allows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using regular OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper. Solid conductors prevent strand interaction, a major source of distortion. The surface quality is critical because a conductor can be considered as a rail-guide for both the electric fields within a conductor, and for the magnetic fields outside the conductor. LGC has fewer oxides within the conducting material, less impurities, less grain boundaries, and definitively better performance.
