AudioQuest Cinnamon USB B to C

Semi-solid concentric conductors reduce strand interaction distortion and minimize jitter. Silver-plated conductors are excellent for applications with very high frequencies like USB audio. These signals, which have such a high frequency, travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. Because the surface is made of very pure silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but the prices are much closer to that of a solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost-effective way to make high-quality USB cables.

Hard-Cell Foam (HCF) insulation

Hard-Cell Foam (HCF) insulation provides critical signal pair geometry. Any solid material next to a conductor actually becomes part of an imperfect circuit. Wire insulation and printed circuit board materials all absorb energy. Some of this energy is stored and then released as distortion. Hard-cell foam insulation is similar to the foamed PE used in our more affordable Bridges & Falls cables, and is injected with nitrogen to create air bubbles. Since nitrogen (like air) does not absorb energy and therefore does not give or take energy from the conductor, distortion is reduced. Additionally, the stiffness of the material ensures that the cable's conductors maintain a stable relationship over the entire length of the cable, creating a stable impedance characteristic and further minimizing distortion.

All conductors checked for directional RF noise.

Available lengths: 0.75m-1.5m.
