Surface quality is critical because a conductor can be considered as a rail-guide for both the fields within a conductor, and for the magnetic fields that extend outside the conductor. The astonishingly smooth and pure surface of all AudioQuest’s Perfect-Surface metals nearly eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity compared to lesser materials. The careful choice of the sizes of the PSS and PSC+ conductors ensures that FireBird’s performance is close to using all PSS Silver, but at a much lower cost.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eZERO-Tech\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith current capacity of 20 amps RMS @ 125VAC 50\/60Hz (16 amps RMS @ 220-240VA 50\/60Hz), FireBird\/High (Variable) Current can withstand current transient peaks many times its continuous (average) RMS rating. This makes FireBird\/High (Variable) Current ideally suited for a wide assortment of AC power conditioners, power regenerators, AC isolation transformers, and AC battery back-up devices, as well as any power amplifier, powered subwoofer, powered loudspeaker, powered receiver, or integrated amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRF\/ND-Tech\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAC Ground wires may provide protection from an electrical short circuit, but they also act as an antenna. Thus, they are subject to induced radio-frequency (RF) noise. This RF noise bypasses component power supplies and is typically coupled directly into a system’s most sensitive audio\/video circuits. AudioQuest’s RF\/ND-Tech greatly reduces this distortion, yielding unprecedented levels of noise dissipation across the widest bandwidth (range) of radio frequencies possible. Our unique circuit topology uses a common-mode phase-cancelling array, in concert with proprietary dielectric materials which provide additional differential linear filtering. US Patent # 8,988,168.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInsulation is also a dielectric that can act like a shunt-filter. Biasing minimizes dielectric-noise and linearizes the filter, significantly improving wide-bandwidth dissipation of induced RF noise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirectionality\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll drawn metal strands or conductors have a non-symmetrical, and therefore directional, grain structure. AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise is drained away from where it will cause distortion. The correct direction is determined by listening to every batch of metal conductors used in every AudioQuest audio cable. When applicable, arrows are clearly marked on the connectors to ensure superior sound quality. For most models of AQ cable, the arrows not only indicate the direction that optimizes metal-directionality as part of Noise-Dissipation, but also indicates non-symmetrical attachment of shield and GND in order to optimize full-system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncompressed Current Transfer: While many AC power cables feature low DC resistance in order to accommodate the demand for high current, a cable’s characteristic impedance is also crucial for optimal performance. Unlike most AC cables that constrict or compress an audio-provoked transient, AudioQuest AC cables combine low DC resistance and ZERO (no) characteristic impedance in order to deliver uncompressed high-current transients on demand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e72v Dielectric-Bias System: Insulation is also a dielectric that can act like a shunt-filter.
