X-TUBE™ WITH AIRCORE™ TECHNOLOGY

One of the big problems as cable conductor size increases, is how to keep the inductance low. This is vital to reduce cable losses and prevent inaccuracies in the signal transfer process, i.e. distortion. 
The normal way to do this is to use a number of individually insulated conductors within the cable construction. This method is utilised to great effect in the design of QED's Genesis Silver Spiral loudspeaker cables. However, this results in a product that has a very high quality sound performance, but is expensive to manufacture and can be difficult to terminate.

To take advantage of this design ethos, but in a more conventional format, X-TUBE forms the conductor in the shape of a tube with an inner aircore. This has the same effect as using multiple insulated conductors and ensures that high frequencies are transmitted cleanly, with the added benefit of ease of termination. This unique tubular conductor geometry also provides lower flux density within the conductors, which gives improved transparency to the sound.

 

Put simply, this is the best termination method to use with QED loudspeaker cables.

To perform as the designer intended, the cable needs to have the very best termination, as sound quality can be adversely affected by using inferior connectors.

QED developed Airloc, a solder-free, airtight perfect fusion between the two metals of cable and plug. 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.

Airloc ABS banana plugs can be fitted on request -

please ask for a quote.

The new AIRLOC Forte plugs with improved pin section are designed to maximise contact area  throughout the wide tolerance range found in 4mm amplifier and speaker  sockets. This means that the connection remains uniformly tight and with its premium gold-plating, provides optimum sonic performance through time.

Airloc spade terminals can be fitted on request -

please advise when ordering.

Ideal for general use in any system as well as in the best hi-fi or home cinema system, this loudspeaker cable on offer is particularly suited to installations where performance is paramount and cable lengths can be over several metres.

 

Consistent with Compass Audio’s ethos these cables offer excellent value for money and outstanding sonic performance!
