AudioQuest Sydney Analog Interconnect (3.5mm Mini - 3.5mm Mini)

AudioQuest Sydney Analog Interconnect (3.5mm Mini - 3.5mm Mini)

Connect a variety of audio electronics with the AudioQuest Sydney analog interconnect, designed for superior flexibility and versatility. Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors reduce distortion, while Polyethylene Air-Tube insulation preserves dynamic range. The Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation system efficiently absorbs high-frequency noise, delivering cleaner, clearer, and more natural sound quality.

Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) Conductors
Solid conductors eliminate electrical and magnetic strand-interaction, which can cause distortion. PSC+ solid copper minimizes grain-boundary distortion and enhances linear RF noise dissipation for superior performance.

Carbon-Based 3-Layer Noise-Dissipation
Traditional shields typically absorb noise and drain it to the ground, which can distort the critical ground reference. AudioQuest’s Noise-Dissipation System (NDS) uses alternating layers of metal and carbon-loaded synthetics to "shield the shield," absorbing and reflecting most RF energy before it reaches the grounded layer, preventing interference and distortion.

Polyethylene Air-Tube Insulation
Solid materials around a conductor can act as imperfect circuits, absorbing energy and releasing it as distortion. AudioQuest combats this by using Polyethylene Air-Tube Insulation, which has high air content for improved clarity and stability. Air absorbs minimal energy, while low-loss Polyethylene reduces distortion and prevents signal blurring.

Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry
Designed specifically for single-ended applications, Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry provides lower impedance on the ground for a richer, more dynamic audio experience. By separating the ground and shield paths, this design delivers cleaner, quieter sound compared to traditional single-ended cables.

Cold-Welded, Direct-Silver Plated Pure Purple Copper Terminations
Optimized for sound, direct-silver plating is applied without a nickel layer that typically causes distortion. The cold-weld process ensures a reliable connection without using sound-degrading solder, preserving signal purity.
