AudioQuest Mackenzie Interconnect Cable

The PSC+ conductors feature a high-purity surface that minimizes grain boundaries within the metal. This reduces signal distortion and harshness, resulting in a cleaner, more detailed sound compared to standard copper cables.

This design uses separate conductors for the positive, negative, and ground signals. By keeping the ground path independent, it prevents the shield from being used as an inferior audio conductor, which lowers noise and improves overall clarity.

Solder is often a point of high resistance and potential signal degradation. Cold-welding creates a high-pressure, metal-to-metal connection that maintains the integrity of the signal path for a more transparent sound.

Yes, especially if you have other electronics nearby. The 3-layer system absorbs radio-frequency interference (RFI) before it can reach your equipment, preventing the background noise that often masks fine musical details.

This insulation keeps the conductors in a stable position and maintains consistent impedance. By minimizing the energy absorption that occurs with standard insulation, it ensures that the signal remains fast and dynamic.

Yes, these are standard balanced XLR cables. They are designed to work with any high-fidelity audio component that features balanced XLR inputs and outputs.
