High-End speaker cable with 72V Dielectric-Bias System
Absolute transparency and total signal control
AudioQuest Type 9 + DBS is a speaker cable designed for reference Hi-Fi systems and High End setups where every detail counts. It uses Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors, featuring an extremely smooth surface that reduces grain distortion and improves harmonic micro-information. The solid-core conductor construction eliminates the internal interference typical of stranded cables, ensuring greater coherence, soundstage focus and tonal naturalness. It is the ideal choice for high-resolution systems that demand precision, dynamics and an impeccably silent background.
Star-Quad geometry and 72V DBS technology
The low-inductance Star-Quad configuration improves electrical stability and optimises bass control, reducing interaction between the poles. The FEP (Fluoro-Polymer) insulation ensures an extremely low dielectric constant, limiting energy absorption. The 72V DBS (Dielectric-Bias System) keeps the dielectric constantly polarised, reducing distortion and improving the fluidity of the signal from the very first use. The result is a more open, three-dimensional and controlled sound.
Electrical stability and performance over long runs
Type 9 + DBS is designed to offer low resistance, reduced inductance and control of stray capacitance, maintaining high performance even with demanding loudspeakers and long lengths. Its rugged construction makes it suitable both for dedicated installations and for high-level domestic systems. It is a cable that brings out the best in refined electronics and fine loudspeakers, improving articulation, detail and soundstage depth.
