AudioQuest BassZilla Bass-Only Speaker Cable with RF/ND-Tech for Midrange or Bass

• BiWiring: When a speaker has separate Bass and Treble inputs, running separate cables to the Bass and Treble inputs significantly reduces distortion. BassZilla is the Bass-Only cable for ThunderBird XTRM and Dragon XTRM speaker cables. A BiWire Combo with Bass-Only and ZERO cables joined together at the amplifier is usually most convenient, though joining them is optional.
• RF/ND-Tech: A cable’s ground leads act as an antenna, making them subject to induced Radio-Frequency (RF) noise. AudioQuest’s RF-on-ground Noise-Dissipation Technology greatly reduces the resulting distortion and signal masking, yielding unprecedented levels of noise dissipation across the widest bandwidth of radio frequencies possible. The unique circuit design uses a common-mode phase-cancelling array, providing linear noise dissipation across the entire length of the cable.
• ZERO-Tech (No Characteristic Impedance): The only way to prevent characteristic-impedance mismatch-effects between a cable and its attached source and load circuits is for the cable not to have a characteristic-impedance. ZERO-Tech accomplishes this by eliminating any electrostatic field between the cable’s high and low signal conductors — enabling uncompressed current transfer. All-important transient current is unrestricted and RF Noise-Dissipation is more effective and linear.
• Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) Conductors: Solid conductors prevent strand-interaction, a major source of dynamic distortion. Extreme-purity PSC+ copper minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries and maximizes RF-Noise Dissipation.
• 72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) with RF Noise-Trap: Insulation is also a dielectric that acts like a shunt-filter. Biasing the dielectric both minimizes dielectric-noise and linearizes the filter, significantly improving wide-bandwidth dissipation of induced noise. No-Grain Silver RF Shield Drains: Enable ultimate efficiency in RF-Noise Dissipation.
• No-Grain Silver RF Shield Drains: Enable ultimate efficiency in RF-Noise Dissipation.
• Permanent Molecular Optimization (PMO): By optimally and efficiently applying a high-frequency AC signal many times greater than any audio system could possibly provide over any length of time, transient intermodulation distortion and the cable burn-in process are significantly reduced.
• Cold-Welded Red-Copper Spades or Bananas: Cold-Welding avoids the introduction of heat and distortion-causing materials like solder. The bare parts are submerged (hung) in silver instead of tumbled in a lower-grade solution. Speaker breakouts and plug casings are synthetic, not metal, to avoid inducing RF Noise into the conductors.
• Directionality: All drawn metal strands or conductors have a non-symmetrical, and therefore directional, grain structure. AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise is drained away from where it will cause distortion. A fundamental aspect of AudioQuest’s multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors ensure induced noise is dissipated and drained in the direction of least harm.
