Audioquest Golden Gate Interconnect Review
Audioquest s golden gate interconnects feature perfect surface copper psc conductors and gold plated rca plugs for a marked sonic improvement over standard mini cables.
Audioquest golden gate interconnect review. I ll admit skepticism but have had experiences with lesser cost cables that resulted in significant audio issues and finally decided to give these a try. Thanks to all the air in foamed pe it causes much less of the out of focus effect common to other materials. Golden gate uses higher purity perfect surface copper psc conductors. Psc lowers distortion to levels even further than audioquest s evergreen cables.

All cables in our bridges falls series place their left and right channels in a single jacket and feature our asymmetrical double balanced geometry with separate high quality positive and negative conductors. Golden gate uses higher purity perfect surface copper psc conductors.
All four models are insulated with foamed polyethylene and are very attractive and obviously well made. I have owned many of the different generations of aq interconnects over the last few decades. Golden gate uses air filled foamed polyethylene insulation on both conductors because air absorbs next to no energy and polyethylene is low loss and has a benign distortion profile. Big sur uses even higher purity perfect surface copper psc conductors and upgrades the other models gold plated rca plugs to gold plated plugs of pure purple copper.
4 stars instead of 5 because how the big brothers of the line will sound. The two big qualities are the conductor quality and dielectric type. Big sur uses even higher purity perfect surface copper psc conductors and upgrades the other models gold plated rca plugs to gold plated pure purple copper rca plugs. The difference is clarity and smoothness of texture.
All four models are insulated with foamed polyethylene and are attractive well made and very flexible.
