AUDIOQUEST CINNAMON 48 VERSION 2.1 HDMI Cable
Sound
first. While 8K and other compelling video/gaming features make the
HDMI headlines AudioQuest’s 48 and eARC-Priority Series HDMI cables are
our best-sounding HDMI cables yet.
The
greater precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to
deliver HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps bandwidth mean all of
AudioQuest’s tried-and-true ingredients and techniques matter every bit
as much as ever before.
Cinnamon
48 features 1.25% Silver-Plated Copper conductors that have been
direction-controlled for the most efficient dissipation of
radio-frequency noise; a metal-layer shield is placed around the 4 FRL +
eARC pairs to further enhance noise-dissipation.
48GAudioQuest
“48” HDMI cables can transfer up to professional 10K Ultra-HD video.
The 48Gbps bandwidth is made possible by 4 balanced audio/video pairs
capable of 12Gbps each. The precision and tighter manufacturing
tolerances required to produce HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps
bandwidth mean many of AudioQuest’s tried-and-true ingredients and
techniques are more important than ever before.
8K/10KAudioQuest
48Gbps HDMI cables have the bandwidth required for video with
resolutions up to 10K and resolutions/refresh rates up to 8K/60 and
4K/120. All AudioQuest HDMI cables are completely backwards compatible
with existing 4K displays.
1.25% Silver-Plated Copper Conductors (HDMI)In
AudioQuest HDMI cables increasingly thick layers of silver plating are
applied to AudioQuest’s Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors to improve
Noise-Dissipation. Placing the superior metal on the outside of the
conductor produces the greatest benefit on overall performance—a
superbly cost-effective way to maximize a digital cable. Cinnamon 48
uses 1.25% Silver-Plated Copper for its conductors.
Level 2 Noise Dissipation: Metal Layer + DirectionalityTraditional
“100% shielding” is not enough to guard against the increasingly
prevalent effects of Wi-Fi cellular and satellite radiation. In
AudioQuest HDMI cables all 19 conductors are Direction-Controlled to
minimize the RF Noise that damages performance by “directing” or
draining it away from the most vulnerable circuits. In Level 2 Noise
Dissipation a metal layer is placed around the 4 FRL + eARC pairs to
further enhance noise-dissipation. Additional Noise-Dissipation
techniques (Levels 3 and up) are applied as budget permits to further
reduce noise.
eARC: LGC + Level-1 Noise DissipationBecause
sound matters the eARC conductors in AudioQuests 48-Series HDMI
cables receive equal love and affection featuring the same superior
metals Direction-Controlled Conductors and Noise-Dissipation
technologies as the main AV data pairs. In AudioQuest eARC-Priority
cables the main A/V data pairs have Cinnamon-level performance (Forest
48’s solid 0.5% Silver + Carbon & Vodka 48’s Level-3
Noise-Dissipation) while the eARC data pair and Ground-Reference drain
use all the same advanced design ingredients as their “48” counterparts.
HDMI’s Audio Return Channel (ARC) sends audio from a TV to a soundbar
or AV receiver for greater simplicity and flexibility in system setup.
Hardware’s previous ARC capabilities max out at lossy (compressed)
5.1-channel surround sound. Today’s HDMI 2.1 hardware supports enhanced
Audio Return Channel (eARC) which increases the digital bandwidth
dramatically to support uncompressed and lossless high-resolution
multichannel audio including Dolby TrueHD and Atmos and DTS-HD Master
Audio and DTS: X.
Limited Lifetime WarrantyAudioQuest
HDMI cables are precisely manufactured to ensure a high level of
reliability and are backed by a non-transferable limited lifetime
warranty. Proof of original purchase is required; other restrictions
apply.
