AudioQuest MACKENZIE3MRCA 9.8 Feet Mackenzie RCA Interconnect Cable
Connect audio source components to amplifiers and receivers with this AudioQuest Mackenzie RCA analog-audio cable, meticulously designed for exceptional performance and outstanding value. Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors minimize distortion, Foamed-Polyethylene insulation preserves dynamic contrasts, and a Carbon Mesh-Network Noise-Dissipation efficiently dissipates high-frequency noise. The result is cleaner, clearer, more naturally beautiful music.
Features
- Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) Conductors
Perfect-Surface Copper+ has an astonishingly smooth and pure surface. 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 PSC+ conductor. PSC+ is manufactured by applying the same exceptional technology to an ultra-pure copper. The resulting sound quality is even more focused and simply less in the way. For over 30 years AudioQuest has pioneered the use of superior metals; yet even we were surprised by the huge leap in performance made possible with Perfect-Surface Technology. PSC+ simply outperforms all previously available copper metals at any price. All of Mackenzie’s conductors are solid. Electrical and magnetic interaction between strands in a conventional cable is the greatest source of distortion, often causing a somewhat dirty, harsh sound. Solid conductors are fundamental toward achieving Mackenzie’s very clean sound - Nitrogen-Injected Hard-Cell Foam Insulation
Nitrogen-Injected Hard-Cell Foam insulation is used exclusively in most of AudioQuest’s video and digital audio cables. Similar to Foamed-PE, it is nitrogen-injected to create air pockets. ‘Hard’ foam is used because the stiffness of the material allows the conductors in the cable to maintain the same relationship with each other along the full length of the cable, thus ensuring that the characteristic impedance of the cable is consistent - Carbon-Based 3-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS)
100% shield coverage is easy. Preventing captured RF Interference from modulating the equipment’s ground reference requires AQ’s Noise-Dissipation System. Metal and Carbon-Loaded synthetics prevent most RFI from reaching the equipment’s ground plane - Triple-Balanced Geometry
The three conductors in “Triple-Balanced” Mackenzie cables ensure that whether prepared with RCA or XLR plugs, the positive and negative signals have equally low-distortion conducting paths. The 100% coverage shield is never used as an inferior conductor - Cold-Welded Hanging-Silver Directly Over Pure Purple Copper Plugs
This plug design allows for a connection devoid of solder, which is a common source of distortion. Because the ground shells are stamped instead of machined, the metal can be chosen for low distortion instead of machinability. Purple Copper offers a cleaner, clearer sound than the nickel-plated or OFHC metals commonly found in competing manufacturers’ plugs - 3 Meter (9.8 Feet)

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The conductors are made of Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) which features ultra-pure, low-oxide copper with a smooth surface to minimize distortion and improve sound clarity. The connectors employ cold-welded Hanging-Silver plating directly over pure Purple Copper plugs, avoiding solder for a cleaner, clearer audio signal.
-
The cable uses Nitrogen-Injected Hard-Cell Foam insulation which creates consistent air pockets around the conductors. This insulation maintains conductor geometry precisely along the cable length, ensuring stable impedance and preserving the dynamic contrast of the audio signal.
-
It incorporates a Carbon-Based 3-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS) made from metal and carbon-loaded synthetic materials. This system achieves 100% shield coverage to prevent radio frequency interference (RFI) and other electromagnetic noise from affecting the signal.
-
Each cable measures 9.8 feet (3 meters) in length, and the product is sold as a pair, ideal for stereo audio connections.
-
Yes, the cable comes with a one-year parts and labor warranty, providing assurance against defects in manufacturing or materials.
