About the cable

XT40 CELEBRATES QED'S 40 YEARS OF AWARD WINNING BRITISH HERITAGE. WINNER OF 'BEST SPEAKER CABLE' AT THE 2014 WHAT HI-FI? AWARDS.

Acclaimed by What HI-FI? Magazine; this 'Five Star' award winning pure copper loudspeaker cable boasts QED's advanced X-TubeTM technology and a massive 4mm 2 cross sectional area. This results in a cable that delivers clear sonic advantages over conventional cable designs by maintaining a flat frequency response within the audio band.

 

X-TUBE™ TECHNOLOGY

At low frequencies both X-TubeTM and conventional stranded/solid core speaker cables convey signals in a linear way. However, at high frequencies, X-TubeTM retains a near-linear signal transfer, whereas the conventional cable fails to conduct uniformly across the entire conductor area. The result is that X-TubeTM delivers greater detail and fidelity across the audio spectrum which would other wise be lost in ordinary cables. LARGE CROSS-SECTIONAL AREA

The 4mm2 cross sectional area means XT40 exhibits very low resistance, allowing amplifiers to exert outstanding control over the speakers they are driving. In addition, its large cross sectional area makes it suitable for long cable runs.

Our gold plated connectors are connected to the cable using the Airloc system, which is a solder free, airtight perfect fusion between the two metals. This ‘cold weld’ method allows the cable and plug to offer the optimum signal transfer and therefore, better sound quality. It also reduces contact resistance and ensures perfect long-term performance.

We finish the cables with high quality directional heat shrinks.

Link cables are directed from the spade to the banana plug.

Small diameter link cables can be supplied connected with neck shrink or kept separate, depending on your preference
