The Audioquest Red River XLR Single 1.5M puts the spotlight on their special Solid Perfect-Surface Copper material for the conductors of their Red River XLR Cable. They basically ensure that the surface of the metal is super smooth and free from any impurities right from the manufacturing of the conductor.

Throughout the process, the copper is given the utmost care and protection by allowing it to be continuously machined internally without exposing it to the air. As a result, softness, purity, and smoothness are kept to the maximum extent possible. This eventually leads to a conductor with very low distortion, a hallmark trait that is synonymous with the AudioQuest’s Red River series of interconnects.
On top of that, Red River uses separate wires and jackets for the positive and negative signals that are carried. Such a treatment drastically minimizes cross talk and contamination between polarities, helping to improve isolation. ââââââââââââââââ
Proprietary Metal Processing Technology
Since the beginning, AudioQuest has pioneered the use of superior metals, yet even we were surprised by the huge leap in performance attained through the smooth and pure surface of Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC). Proprietary metal processing technology protects the wire’s surface at every stage of drawing and fabrication.
When high purity low oxide copper is kept as soft, pure, and smooth as possible, it becomes a wonderfully low distortion conductor. In a conventional cable, electrical and magnetic interaction between strands is one of the greatest sources of distortion. Often causing a somewhat harsh, dirty sound. Solid conductors are fundamental toward a very clean, natural sound.
Metal Layer Noise Dissipation
It’s easy to accomplish 100% shield coverage. Preventing captured radio frequency interference (RFI) from modulating the equipment’s ground reference requires AQ’s Noise-Dissipation. Traditional shield systems typically absorb and then drain noise/RF energy to component ground. Modulating and distorting the critical “reference” ground plane. Which in turn causes a distortion of the signal.
Noise-Dissipation “shields the shield,” absorbing and reflecting most of this noise/RF energy before it reaches the layer attached to ground.
Triple Balanced Geometry
Our Triple-Balanced Geometry uses a separate ground reference conductor. So the cable’s shield is never used as an inferior conductor. Whether prepared with RCA or XLR plugs. The cable’s three conductors ensure that the positive and negative signals have equally superior, low distortion conducting paths.
Cold Welded Gold Plated Terminations
This plug design allows for a connection devoid of solder, which is a common source of distortion. Instead of solder, the process employs a high pressure technique. Because the ground shells are stamped instead of machined. The metal used can be chosen for low distortion instead of machinability.
Features and Benefits
- Sound Quality: Largeââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ main cable conductors that not only aid in eliminating noise. But also enhance the rendering of sound to a much better level.
- Triple Shielding: Triple shielding of the cables to ensure that no outside disturbances come through the wire.
- Gold Pated Terminations: Excellent quality metal terminations for installation of sound system with firm connections and maintaining their integrity.
- High Leval Audio: The same high level of audio signal delivery regardless of the changes made to various audio ââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââsystem set-ups.
Summary of the Audioquest Red River XLR Single 1.5M
Audioquest Red River XLR cable brings out the transparency in sound. Its structure is such that it facilitates clean signal transmission leaving out the unwanted noise. This inevitably results in superior sound quality.
Perfectly Achieves Clean Sound
This plug design allows for a solder free connection, which is a common source of distortion. Instead of soldering. The process uses a high pressure technique. Because the molded shells are stamped rather than machined. The metal used can be chosen for low distortion instead of machinability
Hard and Dependable Construction
Carefully constructed to withstand daily usage, it can be also due to the selection of raw materials. It is a very hard working cable when it comes to the resistance of wear and tear of making it an option worth considering for long term setups.
