AudioQuest Pearl HDMI embodies all of AudioQuest’s core philosophies on cable design. It employs solid Long-Grain Copper conductors, Solid High-Density Polyethylene Insulation, and precise geometry. Specific attention has been paid to maximising the performance of HDMI, pushing sonic performance to new levels.
Solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) Conductors: Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion. Pearl’s solid Long-Grain Copper allows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using regular OFHC copper. LGC has fewer oxides within the conducting material, fewer impurities, fewer grain boundaries, and definitively better performance.
Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation: Pearl HDMI uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation because air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile.
High Speed Data Capacity: All AudioQuest HDMI cables up to 10 metres meet or exceed the 10.2 Gbps maximum data rate for HDMI, capable of transmitting all current audio/video features including multichannel high-resolution audio, 1080p, 4K video, and 3D video.
Directionality: All signal conductors are controlled for digital-audio direction. Arrows are clearly marked on the connectors to ensure superior sound quality.
