AudioQuest 12.5M PEARL HDMI ACTIVE (18G)

HDMI Active The longer the cable, the more likely you are to suffer signal loss. This means that the cable is less likely to meet the demanding standards of today’s Hi-res sound and vision. AudioQuest solve this with their Active Frequency-Equalisation HDMI cables – delivering full 18Gbps/4K UltraHD performance over a 7.5 metre length. The right cable for high speed data With the ability to transmit 18Gbps of data, this cable is ideal for the transmission of 4K/60 4:4:4 signals. Ideal for use with UHD Blu-ray players, the Pearl 18G HDMI maximises the performance potential of your HDR 4K material. The cable also transmits 8K signals up to 8K/30 4:2:0. Solid-core conductors for low distortion For many years Audioquest has advocated solid-core rather than multi-strand cables. Electrical and magnetic interaction between strands in conventional cables can cause distortion, giving an unnatural edge to the sound and picture. Using Long-Grain Copper, the Audioquest Pearl gives a cleaner, clearer sound than regular cables using OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper, thanks to fewer impurities. Air-filled foamed-polyethylene insulation Wire insulation can cause an imperfect signal by absorbing energy and then releasing it as distortion. The Audioquest Pearl uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene as air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile. The result is reduced distortion for an even purer signal quality.
