Audioquest Type 5 Speaker Cable (8 Ft) (Banana-Banana) (Open Box)

Note:  Original packaging not included.

• Conductor Materials: The cable uses solid conductors made from a finessed combination of Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) and Long-Grain Copper (LGC). This design choice eliminates harshness and confusion caused by electrical and magnetic strand interaction found in conventional stranded cables.
• Geometry: It employs a balanced Star-Quad Geometry, which helps reduce time-smearing and preserves the audio’s dynamics and clarity. This geometry also increases the spacing between conductors, reducing interaction between adjacent conductors by 35% compared to its predecessor, the Type 4 cable.
• Noise Dissipation: The cable features Carbon-Loading and Direction-Controlled Conductors to provide effective noise dissipation, minimizing noise modulation and amplifier distortion.
• Terminations: This specific product is an 8-foot pair, factory-terminated with high-quality AudioQuest SureGrip 300 silver banana plugs at both ends. These connectors are silver-plated directly over the connector material (beryllium copper) to ensure a high-quality, low-distortion connection without a harsh-sounding nickel layer underneath.
• Configuration: It is configured as a standard, full-range speaker cable for connecting speakers to audio amplifiers or receivers. It has a black/brown braided exterior jacket.
• Condition: The product described is “Open Box,” meaning it is likely in excellent or near-new condition, possibly with original packaging, but may have been previously opened or used as a display model. The functional specifications remain the same as a new item.
