Description

The QED Reference Audio 40 Phono Pair is crafted to achieve better audio clarity, making it the first choice for audiophiles and music enthusiasts. This product’s strict design ensures that the audio signal stays the same from the source to the speakers, thus making your listening experience even more remarkable.

QED Reference Audio 40 Phono Pair

Representing yet another stride forward in analogue interconnect design from the original specialist cable company, the QED Reference Audio 40 Phono Pair builds on the success of the first generation Analoc low eddy current design by entirely removing all conductive material from the plug bodies for superior transparency, timing and audio signal integrity.

The Reference Audio 40 remains the ultimate upgrade from budget interconnects for a cleaner, more detailed and dynamic sonic performance.

All-new Analoc2 design

The Reference Audio 40 Analoc2 design still features low-bulk, high-purity copper connectors alongside low-mass metal barrels. However, it now cleverly substitutes high-rigidity thermoplastic material for both the inner support structure and the cable strain relief to eliminate the detrimental effects of eddy currents.

Although it is already smaller than in traditional bulk brass plugs. These unfavourable currents could still circulate weakly in the isolated metal body of the previous plug design. Now, with the new material in place, these remnant resonant distortions cannot adversely affect the information contained in the audio signal as it travels through the latest plug.

To complete the Reference Audio 40 RCA plug’s Analoc2 upgrade and help combat the skin effect. The hollow, gold (or rhodium) plated, high-purity copper signal pins are retained. The effectiveness of the slip ring, which locks in place. As the barrels are tightened, the similarly plated, pure copper ground terminal has also been improved.

Ferrite cord insulation

A Zn/Mn Ferrite jacket within the cordage absorbs very high-frequency noise components outside of the audible band that adversely affect the micro-timing of the audio signal. Reference Audio 40 cables exhibit cleaner signal transmission when measured at very high frequencies than standard audio interconnects.

99.99% Oxygen-Free Copper

Further protection for the 99.999% Oxygen-Free Copper (SPOFC) conductors comes in a low-loss, low-density, dielectric foam polyethene (LDPE) inner jacket that minimises electrical energy loss in the cable insulation. Which can have a detrimental effect on the fidelity of the sound compared with cheaper PVC alternatives.

Innovative Technology

These cable sets use the finest technology to create an ultra-modern solution that impairs minimal signal loss or interference. The various innovative features of the QED Reference Audio 40 included in the cords ensure that all necessary information from your music is registered. And, without a shadow of a doubt, perfectly transferred in precision.

Sturdy, Tough, and Durable

The QED Reference Audio 40 has been specifically designed and built to be decent in terms of performance and really durable and reliable. It looks good and is physically strong and rigid. Making it a reliable source of continuous, high-quality audio enjoyment.
