The conductors of the AudioQuest VSD-G cable are copper wires with a 1.25% silver coating (silver plating). This features a structure where a relatively thick silver plating layer is layered on top of AudioQuest's proprietary Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors. Purpose: Silver excels in the characteristic that signals flow on the surface of the conductor as the frequency increases (skin effect), thus aiming to improve the transmission performance of high-frequency signals (digital audio signals and video signals). Features: While keeping costs lower than pure silver conductors, it significantly improves high-frequency performance. Development: In the successor model, the VSD-3, the silver coating ratio was increased to 6.1%, further enhancing performance. Thank you for viewing.
