Stereophile: Home Page AudioQuest Type 4 Speaker Cable - FutureShop.co.uk The 4-Series of AudioQuest speakers cables may be the most successful in AudioQuest’s 30+ year history. Type 4′s roots go all the way back to the late 80′s. The fundamental geometry and conductor complement of Type 4 hasn’t changed since 1995 … because any change to the size or position of the 4-Series’ 2-sized Spread-Spectrum conductor arrangement would reduce performance. Type 4’s solid Long-Grain Copper allows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using typical OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper. OFHC is a general metal industry specification regarding “loss” without any concern for distortion. CARBON-BASED NOISE-DISSIPATION and CROSS-TALK-DISSIPATION SYSTEMS (INSULATION): The two negative conductors in Type 4 are insulated with partially conductive Carbon-Loaded Polyethylene. The relationship between conductors defines a cable’s most basic electrical values (capacitance and inductance). Any single size or shape of conductor has a specific distortion profile.
