audiophile USB cables from AQVOX
This audiophile highend USB cable is for sure one of the best,
if not THE best USB cable on the market.
AQVOX was the first company who started the development of dedicated highend USB cables many years ago, we know how to do it right.
Aqvox was 2006 the first manufacturer, who developed USB-cables specially for the audiosector. Since 2006 we do offer audiophile USB cabels, which are technically and acoustically optimized that every user can instantly hear the improvenment.
We do recommend strongly to use USB cables manufactured
for USB2.0 specification (USB2.0 is printed on the cable,
if not it is an USB1.1 cable). USB cables with the lower USB1.1
specs do not sound as good as USB2.0 cables.
Ferrite
Ferrite rings/beads have to be avoided, as they affecting
the highs.
USB signal quality
Just because it is a USB-signal, it is not automatically resistant
against signal-alteration due to different influences! The trivial argument: that is digital, so 0 or 1, yes or no, there can nothing be wrong, is statement in general only made by users who have no own experience in developing digital- or data-technology.
The development of best USB-cables requires appropriate measuring
equipment, where these signal-problems can be detected and
on construction level and proper material selection nearly
be eliminated.
Even here: the ear is also a development tool.
USB Signal Measurements
In some weeks we will publish here some screenshots and measurement protocols of USB-signals. Professional USB-developers will explain the results in an understandable manner. We will compare and analyse standard USB-cables with AQVOX USB-cables.
Used Hardware:
LeCroy USB Analyser
LeCroy Oscilloscope
To be honest: for our experience, the sonic differences
between USB2.0 cables can be huge when it comes to audiophile
standards. The AQVOX USB cable sounds very open, transprent and natural, without any harshness. Our customers
can go sure, that the AQVOX highend USB cable is made of the very
best materials, provides maximum soundquality and exceeds
the USB2.0 design specifications. A good hifi set will reveal
the advantages of a good USB connection. The sound improves over the complete frequency bandwidth and in all aspects.
Just try it !
Design
Not to forget the mechanical strength, craftsmanship build
quality and the attractive professional design.

HighEnd COAX-75 - COAX - Digitalcable of audiophile
quality - versions: RCA to RCA / BNC
to BNC / BNC to RCA
Contrary to most offered 75-Ohm digital audio cables where
the RCA plugs have just 20 - 30-Ohm, the AQVOX COAX cable
incorporates not only a 75-Ohm precision cable of finest quality
and technology, but also real 75-Ohm RCA plugs. Only this
ensures that a consistent 75-Ohm wave impedance troughout
the connection line is kept, for which the digitalelectric
(COAX) In- and Outputs of the digital audio devices are designed
for.
AQVOX cooperates with one of the best manufacturers of
high frequency- and digital connectors and can offer COAX
cable with RCA plugs in 75-Ohm and best quality.
Here some background regarding the importance of correct wave
impedance at Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coax_cable
Chapter: Significance of impedance
or here
http://www.epanorama.net/documents/wiring/cable_impedance.html
The WAVE RESISTANCE is based on frequency and is not measurable
with a Ohm-meter!
For example: in the professional broadcasting field or in
recording studios, digital cables terminated with plugs or
jacks which do not have same wave resistancy as the ccable,
are not used at all.
In Practice
Following disadvantages arising from interconnections running
out of specifications (eg. 75-Ohm, 110-Ohm etc..):
(this affects digital Audio- as well as digital Videosignals
and results from damaged cables or wrong parts)
mainly responsible are signal reflections, standing waves,
signal return losses and signal dampening for signal errors/alterings,
signal losses/creations and further the sound quality affecting
factors, all called jitter. This results in audible losses
of details, transients, stage imaging and transparency .
Under monitoring conditions, it is noticeable like
this example: if a backround Hi-Hat is whiped with the
metalbrush, not the details like the fine metalwires working
on the brass are audible, it sounds more undefinded like rustle
or noise.

digital-connections.

Intro:
The symmetrical/balanced XLR-input of AQVOX Phonostages is
in some ways completely different from 99,9%-100% of all phonostages
on the market.
1.- it is not only a Voltage-amplifier (für MM´s
and MC´s) but also a Current-amplifier (only for MC´s).
2.- has a true balanced input.
3.- the input-amplification is adjustable and all this together
plus some other audiophile circuit-features making AQVOX Phonostages
unique on the worldmarket and producing a soundquality which
is incomparable.
BUT an Symmetrical-Current-Amp requires phonocables with different
attributes as normal phonocables have, which are made in 99,9%-100%
of all cases for voltage-amps.
Remember:
Voltage-amplifiers require cables with low capacity.
Symmetrical Voltage-amplifiers require symmetrical cables
with low capacity.
Current-amplifiers require cables with low inductivity.
Symmetrical Current-amplifiers require symmetrical cables
with low inductivity.
Therefore an symmetrical Current-amplifier requires braided
or at least twisted conductors.
This arrangement reduces the inductivity and stray pick-up
of distrurbances/humm/radio and improves signal to noise ratio.
Screening/Shielding:
A symmetrical Phonocable requires not essentially a shielding,
it depends on the electromagnetical pollution of its operational
area, if a shield is needed or not.
If the user does not hear any radio/humm/distortions/noise,
with a unshielded cable, then it is OK. But otherwise he must
use a screened cable. The sonically difference shield or No
shield is: without shield it sounds more open and the resolution
is better.
AQVOX Phonocable / Turntable cable can be used with all kinds of phonostages
We do strongly recommend our vinyl-fans to make listening
tests with both cable materials -silver & copper- at home.
Only an auditioning in the own setup wil show, what cable
the audiophile prefers. The majority of our customers states: silver sounds more
brilliant with better resolution and copper sounds warmer
- but listen yourself...
AQVOX Phono Turntable Silvercable
Handmade in Germany
The AQVOX SILVER balanced phonocable is made of nearly 100%
pure solid-silver conductor (0,6mm ) braided and stream-net
teflon coated. The third conductor is only connected at the
side of the phonostage but runs in the braid all the way up
to the phonostage, but is open. This copper-conductor has
the function of an distrurbances/humm/radio arrester. Sonically
a very good resolution and open soundstage without any hardness.
The braided conductors are reducing the inductivity and stray
pick-up of distrurbances/humm/radio tremendously.
Build in standard 120cm/47.24 inches - other lengths on request.
