USB Cable Audioquest Forest USB-C to USB-C

The AudioQuest Forest USB cable uses monofilament conductors made of oxygen-free copper of a high degree of purification, coated with silver. Since high frequencies as a result of the skin effect propagate mainly over the surface, a conductor with such a coating approaches completely silver in characteristics. At the same time, the cost of the AudioQuest Forest USB cable turns out to be more affordable than that of models with completely silver conductors.

Silver has better conductivity at high frequencies than copper, so cables with silver-plated cores are often used in HDMI connectors. Although the data transfer rate via USB is lower than HDMI, the expansion of the cable bandwidth still has a positive effect on the accuracy of their transmission, and, as a result, the sound quality. And in a multi-core conductor, unlike a multi-core one, there are no crosstalk, which can lead to the appearance of a jitter.

The foamed dielectric used in the AudioQuest Forest USB cable has a rigid cellular structure and is filled with nitrogen. Unlike foamed polyethylene, this material has the best dielectric characteristics and is completely inert with respect to the conductor. In addition, due to the higher rigidity, such a dielectric precisely holds the core in the center of the conductor, which ensures the constancy of the electrical characteristics of the cable along its entire length.

AudioQuest Forest USB is equipped with USB connectors (Type C) with gold-plated contacts mounted with high precision.

Features of AudioQuest Forest USB C-C Cable:

• Monofilament silver-plated copper conductor
• Dielectric made of foamed material filled with nitrogen
