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. Additional Noise-Dissipation techniques (Levels 2 and up) are applied as budget permits to further reduce noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e0.5% Silver-Plated Copper A\/V Conductors (HDMI)\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eIn 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. Forest 18 uses 0.5% Silver-Plated Copper for its conductors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eeARC: 0.5% Silver + Level-1 Noise Dissipation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eBecause sound matters, the eARC conductors in AudioQuest's 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 18's solid 0.5% Silver + Carbon \u0026amp; 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eHDMI's Audio Return Channel (ARC) sends audio from a TV to a soundbar or AV receiver for greater simplicity and flexibility in system setup.
