AudioQuest 2.5 Feet Cinnamon Digital Interconnect Cable - USBCINNAMONPOINT75M
In 1982 Sony gave us “Perfect sound forever,” along with the attitude
that, “it’s just digital, so all CD players sound the same.”
That was disproved and qualitative differences between players became accepted
truth. Next came separate transport and DAC combos, which brought with it the
attitude that “all S/PDIF digital audio cables sound the same…”
until that too became disproved. Now the frontier has moved once again. Is digital
audio really just ones and zeros? We don’t believe so, and once you’ve
had a chance to listen to Cinnamon USB, you won’t think so either…
Features
Solid 1.25% Silver Conductors
Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter.
Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications,
like USB audio. These signals, being such a high frequency, travel almost
exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity
silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but
priced much closer to solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost effective
way of manufacturing very high-quality USB cables
Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation
Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect
circuit. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy (loss).
Some of this energy is stored and then released as distortion. Cinnamon USB
uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation because air absorbs next to
no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile.
Thanks to all the air in Foamed-PE, it causes much less of the out-of-focus
effect common to other materials
Terminations
Precision gold-plated plugs are carefully attached with the very best solder.
Through choice of flux and metallurgy, AQ solder has been optimized to make
a low-distortion connection. The difference you hear between solders is a
result of connection quality. AQ solder does not have a high silver content
because the more silver there is in solder, the more difficult it is to make
a good connection
Universal Serial Bus Device Class Definition For Audio Devices
USB (Universal Serial BUS) was established by a stalwart group of companies
such as Intel, Hewlett-Packard, and Microsoft (just to name a few) in order
to give the personal computing world a truly universal standard and means
to connect devices such as hard drives, printers, cameras, and, more importantly
to us, audio components. Included in the original description are protocols
for the pristine transfer of audio over USB. Great care and sensitivity went
into this. Consequently, a computer connected to a USB-enabled digital-to-analog
converter can outperform the best compact disc players available today. AudioQuest
is committed to contributing products that honor USB’s ability to deliver
state-of-the-art performance on this new and wonderful frontier
