Audioquest Modulation copperhead

Design

The Copperhead has two identical conductors for the hot and ground connections. The shielding that covers 100% of the transfer structures is a bare conductor. The conductor under the shielding has the dual task of being a low-distortion audio connection and a drain carrying the ground potential.

Conductor

Magnetic and electrical interactions between the strands are sources of distortion that give a harsh sound. The solid conductors of the Copperhead offer a clear and detailed sound.

Metal

The PSC (Perfect-Surface Copper) has an exceptionally smooth, fine and pure surface. The technologies used to prepare the metal protect the surface of the cable at every stage of design and manufacturing. When high-purity, low-oxidation copper is kept as smooth and supple as possible, it becomes a wonderful low-distortion conductor.

Insulation

Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is part of an imperfect circuit. Internal interconnect cables and circuit boards absorb energy and increase losses. A fraction of this energy is stored and generates distortion. The Copperhead uses Foamed Polyethylene (FPE) as insulation on both conductors because the air present in the FPE does not absorb energy to release it later, and the Polyethylene minimizes loss and distortion.
