AudioQuest SYDNEY2M Sydney 6.6 Feet Audio Cable
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 Sydney'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 Sydney's very clean sound - Polyethylene Air-Tube 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. All of Sydney's conductors use PE Air-Tube Insulation because air absorbs next to no energy, and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile. PE Air-Tube Insulation causes much less of the out-of-focus effect common to other materials - 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 - Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry
Purpose designed for single-ended applications, Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry offers a relatively lower impedance on the ground for a richer, and more dynamic experience. While many single-ended cable designs use a single path for both the ground and the shield, Double-Balanced designs separate the two for cleaner, quieter performance - Cold-Welded, Direct-Silver Plated Pure Purple Copper Terminations
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 over nickel-plated or OFHC metals commonly found in competing manufacturers' plugs. Direct-Silver Plating offers one more important step toward greater clarity and doing no harm to the signal - 3.5mm male mini to 2x RCA

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The cable features Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors, which are manufactured using proprietary metal-processing technology to keep the copper surface incredibly smooth and pure. This results in a low-distortion conductor that delivers a cleaner and more focused sound quality compared to standard copper metals.
-
The cable uses Polyethylene Air-Tube Insulation, which surrounds the conductor with air and low-loss polyethylene. Air absorbs very little energy, and polyethylene has a benign distortion profile, reducing energy loss and distortion. This design minimizes the common out-of-focus effect caused by other insulation materials, resulting in clearer audio transmission.
-
The cable incorporates a Carbon-Based 3-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS) that provides 100% shield coverage and prevents radio frequency interference (RFI) from affecting the audio signal. The system uses metal and carbon-loaded synthetics to block interference from reaching the equipment's ground reference, ensuring a quieter and cleaner sound.
-
The Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry design separates the ground path from the shield, unlike many single-ended cable designs that combine them. This separation lowers ground impedance, allowing for a richer and more dynamic audio experience with less noise and distortion.
-
The cable features cold-welded, direct-silver plated Pure Purple Copper terminations. This solder-free plug design eliminates distortion commonly caused by solder joints. Purple Copper provides a cleaner, clearer sound compared to nickel-plated or OFHC metals, and the silver plating further enhances signal clarity without harming the audio signal.
