Audioquest Columbia RCA

Conductor

The three conductors of the Columbia “triple balanced” cable ensure that, regardless of whether RCA or XLR connectors are used, the positive and negative signals have low-distortion conductive paths. The 100% coverage shield is never used as a lower quality audio conductor.

Metal

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 extremely pure, low-oxidation copper is kept as smooth and supple as possible, it becomes a wonderful low-distortion PSC conductor. PSC+ copper is prepared by applying the same technology to ultra-pure copper, eliminating irritation and providing exceptional clarity.

The resulting sound quality is even more precise and natural. For fifteen years, AudioQuest has been the leading manufacturer to use superior metals; and we were all surprised by the huge leap in performance. PSC+ copper simply outperforms previous metals available, regardless of price.

Noise Dissipation System

Easy 100% shielding protection. Audioquest’s Noise Dissipation System is necessary to prevent captured RF interference from modulating the equipment’s ground reference. Metal and carbon-rich synthetics prevent most RF interference from reaching the equipment’s ground plane.

Dielectric Bias System

All insulators slow down the signal inside the conductor. When the insulator is not polarized, it slows down different parts of the signal differently, which is a serious problem for ultra-sensitive, timing-critical multi-octave sound.
