True to Audioquest design principles yet fantastic value for money, the Audioquest Tower 3.5mm is the ideal first upgrade.
SOLID-CORE CONDUCTORS FOR LOW DISTORTION
For many years Audioquest has advocated solid-core rather than multi-strand cables. Electrical and magnetic interaction between strands in conventional cables can cause distortion, giving an unnatural edge to the sound and picture. Using Long-Grain Copper, the Audioquest Tower gives a cleaner, clearer sound than regular cables using OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper, thanks to fewer impurities.
AIR-FILLED FOAMED-POLYETHYLENE INSULATION
Wire insulation can cause an imperfect signal by absorbing energy and then realising it as distortion. The Tower uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene as air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile. The result is reduced distortion for an even purer sound quality.
COLD-WELDED, GOLD-PLATED PLUGS
By using a high pressure weld rather than solder, there's less chance of a faulty connection between cable and plug. Not only does this lead to a more reliable connection in the long term but it also ensures low resistance and, hence, low distortion connection for the entire life of the cable.
Connect up your portable with a quality cable and hear the difference it makes!
