If you are looking for state-of-the-art in digital audio performance, look no further than our Silver Serpent AIR Digital Coax (S/PDIF) cable. Based on our experience with our award-winning Silver Serpent Digital Coax and Blue Truth Digital Coax, we are proud to announce our new flagship digital coax cable. This cable is capable of extremely high data rates and was designed for serial digital data transmission with minimal Structural Return Loss (SRL). Perfect for all digital audio, including streaming media players with high-resolution audio, DVD and Blu-ray to a Dolby Digital/DTS processor or outboard DACs.
Years in the making and our first upgraded RCA Interconnect design in over 10 years. The wait was worth it! The Silver Serpent AIR Digital Coax (S/PDIF) cable builds on the success of our hugely popular and well-reviewed Silver Serpent and Blue Truth digital coax interconnects. The Silver Serpent AIR cables are a substantial step-up in performance. It features a solid-core silver-coated copper conductor. We also upgraded our dielectric material from a great foam HDPE dielectric to a fantastic air tube core. Essentially the only thing in contact with the conductor is AIR-the best and most non-destructive dielectric material.
How does this change in construction affect the sound? You will get amazing clarity and detail. You will get an improved soundstage. The voices and instruments sound more realistic. There is no harshness in the sound and you will experience no listener fatigue. EVERYTHING IS BETTER!
Featuring state-of-the-art air-tube dielectric - air has the lowest dielectric constant measure available.

Silver-The Conductivity KING!Silver is the conductivity KING when It comes to audio cables. Gold is good, copper is great, but silver is the best! Silver Serpents contain silver in the conductor. Silver, a precious metal, is the ONLY metal with a higher electrical conductivity than copper. Silver Serpent Audio Interconnects use 99.999% pure silver. The electrical conductivity of silver is 106% of that of annealed copper on the IACS scale. Even though the cost of silver is much greater than copper, its sonic benefits are immediately apparent. |
High-Purity CopperWe also use ultra-pure copper in our Silver Serpent Audio Interconnects. The addition of copper brings “warmth” to the audio sound-complementing the sonic detail from the silver. The Silver Serpent Audio Interconnects strike a unique balance between outstanding performance and cost. The Silver Serpent Audio Interconnects are considered a true “value” in the world of high-end audio cables. |
Shielding-Blocking the NoiseSilver Serpent Audio Interconnects are extremely well shielded against RFI and EMI. Our state-of-the-art shielding provides 95% coverage to keep noise and other types of interference out. |
Making Great Cables Since 1999From our humble beginning in 1999, Better Cables has had only one mission. To provide the highest quality audio/video cables at the best value. |
Better Cables high-performance cables rival the performance of much more expensive cables sold through traditional sources.
Better Cables cable is made in the USA, and assembled in the USA using audiophile-grade connectors to marry with our extraordinary cable.
Better Cables Silver Serpent AIR audio cables feature high-purity SOLID-CORE silver and oxygen-free copper conductors for high-performance audio playback. Our Silver Serpent AIR line of audio cables are constructed with silver conductors and high-end connectors.
Whether you are using the latest audiophile pre-amps, DACs, streaming media player, cd player/transport, phonograph, receiver, or high-end amplifier, these audio cables provide unsurpassed sonic fidelity, detail, and clarity.
