Sound first. While 8K and other compelling video/gaming features make the HDMI headlines AudioQuest's 48 and eARC-Priority Series HDMI cables are our best-sounding HDMI cables yet. The greater precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to deliver HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps bandwidth mean all of AudioQuest's tried-and-true ingredients and techniques matter every bit as much as ever before. Cinnamon 48 features 1.25% Silver-Plated Copper conductors that have been direction-controlled for the most efficient dissipation of radio-frequency noise; a metal-layer shield is placed around the 4 FRL + eARC pairs to further enhance noise-dissipation.
48G - AudioQuest "48 " HDMI cables can transfer up to professional 10K Ultra-HD video
The 48Gbps bandwidth is made possible by 4 balanced audio/video pairs capable of 12Gbps each
The precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to produce HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps bandwidth mean many of AudioQuest's tried-and-true ingredients and techniques are more important than ever before
8K/10K - AudioQuest 48Gbps HDMI cables have the bandwidth required for video with resolutions up to 10K and resolutions/refresh rates up to 8K/60 and 4K/120
1.25% Silver-Plated Copper Conductors (HDMI)
In AudioQuest HDMI cables, increasingly thick layers of silver plating are applied to AudioQuest's Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors to improve Noise-Dissipation
Level 2 noise dissipation - metal layer + directionality
Traditional "100% shielding " is not enough to guard against the increasingly prevalent effects of Wi-Fi, cellular and satellite radiation
In AudioQuest HDMI cables, all 19 conductors are Direction-Controlled to minimize the RF Noise that damages performance by "directing " or draining it away from the most vulnerable circuits
In Level 2 Noise Dissipation, a metal layer is placed around the 4 FRL + eARC pairs to further enhance noise-dissipation
eARC: 1.25% silver + level-2 noise dissipation
The eARC conductors in AudioQuest's 48-Series HDMI cables receive equal love and affection, featuring the same superior metals, Direction-Controlled Conductors and Noise-Dissipation technologies as the main AV data pairs
In AudioQuest eARC-Priority cables, the main A/V data pairs have Cinnamon-level performance (Forest 48's solid 0.5% Silver + Carbon and Vodka 48's Level-3 Noise-Dissipation), while the eARC data pair and Ground-Reference drain use all the same advanced design ingredients as their "48 " counterparts
HDMI's Audio Return Channel (ARC) sends audio from a TV to a soundbar or AV receiver for greater simplicity and flexibility in system setup
Hardware's previous ARC capabilities max out at loss (compressed) 5.1-channel surround sound
