The Pearl HDMI cable embodies all of AudioQuest's core cable development philosophies. It consists of solid, long-crystalline copper conductors, solid, high-density polyethylene insulation and precise geometry. Special attention has been paid to maximizing HDMI playback - in fact, AudioQuest HDMI cables take sound reproduction to new levels.
SOLID CONDUCTORS MADE OF LONG CRYSTALLINE COPPER (LGC): Solid conductors prevent the distortions induced by the mutual influence of the strands. The solid long crystalline copper (LGC) in the Pearl enables a more balanced, clearer sound than cables with the usual oxygen-free, highly conductive copper (OFHC - Oxygen-Free-High-Conductivity). OFHC is a general metals industry specification that considers “losses” without any consideration of distortion. LGC contains fewer oxides in the conductive material, fewer impurities, fewer grain boundaries and clearly offers better performance.
SOLID, HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE INSULATION: Any solid material adjacent to a conductor becomes part of an incomplete electrical network. Wire insulation and circuit board material absorb energy (losses). Some of this energy is stored and then released as distortion. The solid, high-density polyethylene insulation ensures the critical geometry of the signal pairs and minimizes the phase distortions otherwise caused by the insulation.
HIGH-SPEED DATA CAPACITY: All AudioQuest HDMI cables up to 10 meters in length meet or exceed the maximum data rate of 10.2 Gbps for HDMI and are approved as “High Speed with Ethernet” cables. This means that all AudioQuest cables up to 10 meters in length are capable of transmitting 100% of the data required for any HDMI audio/video application, including high-resolution multi-channel audio, 1080p and 4k video and 3D video from Blu-ray. All AQ HDMI cables transmit 100% of the data required for 120Hz/240Hz/600Hz displays.
ETHERNET AND AUDIO RETURN CHANNEL CAPABLE : All AudioQuest HDMI cables up to 10 meters long are classified as “High Speed with Ethernet”. From 12 to 20 meters in length, the AudioQuest HDMI cables are in the “Standard with Ethernet” category.
DIRECTIONALITY: All audio cables are directional. Each batch of metal conductors for each AudioQuest audio cable is test-heard to determine the correct running direction. Each individual signal conductor is checked for its digital audio direction; It is even important to have the conductors used in the audio return channel run in the opposite direction in order to achieve the best possible playback here too. The plugs are clearly and clearly marked with corresponding arrows to ensure superior sound quality.
