Features Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors True-Concentric conductors minimize strand interaction magnetic confusion Ground noise dissipation technology ZERO characteristic impedance (50Hz - 1MHz) enables uncompressed current transfer Directionally controlled conductors High-Purity True-Concentric PSC+ LGC Conductors With only Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) on the outside Monsoons conductors are essentially all PSC+ even though the conductor core is Long-Grain Copper (LGC). Both superior metal and conductor geometry greatly reduce ear-fatiguing Transient Intermodulation (TIM) Distortion. Uncompressed High-Current Transfer While many AC power cables feature low DC resistance in order to accommodate the demand for high current a cables characteristic impedance is also crucial for optimal performance. Unlike most AC cables that constrict or compress an audio-provoked transient AudioQuest AC cables combine low DC resistance and ZERO (no) characteristic impedance in order to deliver uncompressed high-current transients on demand. Ground Noise-Dissipation AC Ground wires provide protection from current-wiring faults but they also act as antennas. Thus they are subject to induced radio-frequency (RF) noise. This RF noise bypasses component power supplies and is typically coupled directly into a systems most sensitive audio/video circuits. AudioQuests patented Ground-Noise Dissipation greatly reduces this distortion yielding unprecedented levels of noise dissipation across the widest bandwidth (range) of radio frequencies possible. AQ's unique circuit-topology utilizes a common-mode phase-cancelling array in concert with proprietary dielectric materials which provide additional differential linear filtering. Directionality All drawn metal strands or conductors have a non-symmetrical and therefore directional grain structure. AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise is draine
