STAR 4 SPEAKER CABLE W/BANANAS (8 ft PAIR)

AudioQuest Star 4: Speaker Cable with LGC Copper Conductors and Banana Plugs The AudioQuest Star 4 is a speaker cable designed to connect amplifiers and loudspeakers in HiFi systems. It combines high-quality copper conductors, a four-conductor braided geometry, and carefully engineered terminations. Its construction is designed to provide a reliable connection and easy integration into stereo audio and home cinema systems. Featuring solid LGC (Long-Grain Copper) conductors, the Star 4 incorporates AudioQuest's proprietary construction technologies, including conductor directionality control and Cold-Welded terminations. It also comes with gold-plated AudioQuest 300 Series banana plugs, making it easy to connect to compatible speaker terminals. Solid LGC Copper Conductors The AudioQuest Star 4 uses LGC (Long-Grain Copper), a material selected by AudioQuest for its audio cables. Its long-grain structure reduces the number of grain boundaries compared with other types of copper, a characteristic the brand seeks to leverage to optimize conductor performance. The use of solid conductors is an integral part of the cable's design, avoiding the conventional stranded-wire structure, while its four-conductor braided configuration allows the internal connection geometry to be organized. Directionality Control and Cold-Welded Terminations The Star 4 incorporates conductor directionality control, following AudioQuest's design principles to ensure the cable is correctly oriented during manufacturing and installation. The terminations use the Cold-Welded system, a pressure-based joining technique that avoids relying on conventional soldering at the contact point. This system is designed to establish a secure connection between the conductors and the connectors. Gold-Plated Banana Plugs The cable features AudioQuest 300 Series banana plugs with a gold-colored finish, designed to make connecting and disconnecting the cable from compatible equipment easier. This type of termination allows for convenient, tidy installation, particularly with amplifiers and speakers equipped with terminals compatible with banana plugs. Available Lengths and Finishes The AudioQuest Star 4 is available in lengths of 2.5 and 3 metres, with black or white finishes, to suit different audio system layouts and installation requirements.
