FAQs

What is the benefit of using solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors?

LGC conductors provide a smoother, clearer sound by minimizing grain boundaries and impurities within the conducting material, resulting in less distortion.

What is the purpose of the Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS)?

The NDS prevents Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) from reaching the equipment's ground plane, which helps to reduce noise and improve sound clarity.

Can I use this cable with any audio device?

Yes, this cable is designed to work with any device that has a 3.5mm output and RCA inputs. This includes smartphones, laptops, and various audio systems.

How should I clean the connectors?

Use a dry, soft cloth to gently clean the connectors. Avoid using any liquids or abrasive cleaners.

Is the cable directional?

No, the cable is not directional. You can connect either end to your audio source or receiving device.

What is the warranty on the AudioQuest Tower cable?

AudioQuest typically offers a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Please check with your retailer for specific warranty details.

How does the Foamed-Polyethylene insulation improve sound quality?

Foamed-Polyethylene insulation reduces energy absorption and distortion, resulting in a more focused and detailed audio experience.

Troubleshooting

No sound or distorted sound.

Check all connections to ensure they are properly seated. Verify the audio source and receiving device are powered on and volume is turned up. Test with a different cable to rule out a faulty cable.

Humming or buzzing sound.

Make sure the cable is not near power cords or other sources of electromagnetic interference. Try moving the cable or using a power conditioner for the audio equipment. Check for ground loop issues.

One channel not working.

Check the RCA connections at both ends. Swap the RCA connectors to determine if the problem is with the cable or the audio equipment. If the problem persists after swapping the connectors, the issue may be with the receiving device.
