AudioQuest Forest USB A to Mini B 0.75m - NEW OLD STOCK

AudioQuest Forest USB A to Mini B 0.75m - NEW OLD STOCK - RRP £35

Audioquest Forest is a substantial improvement over standard giveaway USB cables. Forest offers a far smoother & richer tonal balance, much greater resolution and a clearer sonic picture.

The secret is in Audioquest's unyielding commitment to quality; every aspect of Forest's construction from the type of connectors used to the direction of the conductors has been scrutinized, auditioned, revised and perfected to create a cable that offers outstanding performance for a fraction of the cost of most audiophile designs.

"The AudioQuest Forest is very affordable by standalone cable standards, and it offers all-round improvements over bundled cables. Detail levels are markedly improved, there's greater precision and punch, and a general upgrade in musical expressiveness."
-- What HiFi?

Solid Long-Grain Copper Conductors (LGC): Solid conductors cancel out strand-interaction distortion. Forest's solid Long-Grain Copper allows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using regular OFHC (Oxygen-Free-High-Conductivity) copper. OFHC is a general metal industry specification regarding "loss" without any concern for distortion. LGC has less oxides within the conducting material, less impurities, less grain boundaries, and definitively better performance. 

Solid High-Density Polyethylene Insulation: Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect circle. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy. Some of this energy is stored and then eventually released as distortion. Solid High-Density Polyethylene insulation ensures critical signal-pair geometry while lessening insulation-induced phase distortion.

Terminations: Precision gold-plated plugs are carefully attatched with the very best solder. Through choice of flux and metallurgy, AudioQuest solder has been optimised to make a low-distortion connection. The difference you hear between solders is a result of connect quality. AudioQuest solder does not have a high silver content, this is because the more silver there is, the more difficult it is to make a good connection.

Universal Serial Bus Device Class Definition For Audio Devices: USB (Universal Serial BUS) started out by a stalwart group of companies such as, Hewlett-Packard, Intel and Microsoft in order to the the personal computing world a truly universal standard and means to connect devices of all kinds. Included in the original description are protocools for the pristine transfer of audio over USB. Consequently, a computer connected to a USB-enabled digital-to-analog converter can outperform the best CD players available today. AudioQuest is commited to contributing products that honour USB's ability to delver state of the art performance on this new frontier.
