Audioquest Type-9+DBS (72V DBS) REL Acoustics SpeakOn (Neutrik) Hi-Level Subwoofer Cable

The Audioquest Type-9+DBS (72V DBS) Hi-Level subwoofer cable will improve the performance of any REL subwoofer that uses the SpeakOn connector socket (Hi-Level).

Whilst the standard Hi-Level cable supplied with REL subwoofer's perform well by upgrading to much higher quality cables the lift in performance is far from subtle when listening to music (and AV systems). When using the wireless transmitters from REL there is also a benefit to be had by using a short length of Audioquest Hi-Level subwoofer to the transmitter.

Whilst in the process of upgrading the Hi-Level it is also worth upgrading the standard power cable provided to something in the Audioquest NRG or Wind series of power cables.

Details:

The loudspeaker cable model Type-4 was first introduced by Audioquest about 1983. It wasn’t the prettiest cable, but the performance advantage of its polypropylene insulation was dramatic and much appreciated. Several evolutionary steps later, the current version of Type-4 was introduced in 1995 and has been very popular.

Audioquest`s Type 9+DBS (72V DBS) Low-Distortion & Low-Noise speaker cable is essentially Type-4 with higher quality conductors, added layers and techniques of Noise-Dissipation for more effective noise control and AQ's patented Dialectric-Bias System (DBS)

Audioquest`s Type 9+DBS (72V DBS) Low-Distortion & Low-Noise loudspeaker cable is essentially Type-4 loudspeaker cable with higher quality conductors, and with added layers and techniques of Noise-Dissipation for more effective noise control than any previous Type-4 iteration.

In addition Audioquest`s Type 9+DBS (72V DBS) conductors are a little bigger than previous Type-4 series cables. The conductors are a little farther apart, reducing interaction between adjacent conductors by 35%.

Features:

HIGH PURITY CONDUCTORS - SOLID PERFECT-SURFACE COPPER+ (PSC+)

Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors prevent strand interaction, a major source of ear fatiguing transient inter-modulation distortion. The astonishingly smooth and pure Perfect-Surface Copper+ eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity compared to OFHC, OCC, 8N and other premium coppers. The superior purity of PSC+ further minimises distortion caused by grain boundaries, which exist within any metal conductor. The astonishingly smooth and pure Perfect-Surface Copper+ further eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity compared to OFHC, OCC, 8N and other premium coppers.

SOLID CONDUCTORS

Eliminate harshness and confusion due to strand-interaction.

72V DIELECTRIC-BIAS SYSTEM WITH CARBON-LEVEL RADIO-FREQUENCY TRAP (DBS)

All insulation is also a dielectric whose electrical properties affect the integrity of the signal. When the insulation is unbiased, dielectric-involvement (absorption and non-linear release of energy back into the signal flow) causes different amounts of time delay (phase shift) for different frequencies and energy levels, which is a significant problem for very time sensitive multi-octave audio. AudioQuest’s multi-patented DBS creates a strong, stable electrostatic field which saturates and polarises (organises) the molecules of the insulation. This minimises the nonlinear time delays, resulting in clearer sound emerging from a “blacker” background. The inclusion of an RF Trap (a technology developed for AudioQuest’s Niagara Series of power products) in the DBS battery pack further reduces radio-frequency noise. The DBS battery packs will last for many years. A test button and LED allow for the occasional battery check.

MULTI-LAYER CARBON-BASED NOISE-DISSIPATION

Multi-Layer carbon based Noise-Dissipation plus Direction-Controlled conductors and shielding significantly lower noise floor and reduce amplifier Transient-Inter-modulation Distortion (TIM).

STAR-QUAD GEOMETRY

Balanced Star-Quad Geometry reduces time smearing while preserving dynamics, and clarity.

TERMINATION
