It uses solid conductors of 5% silver-plated copper, polyethylene air-tube insulation, a four-layer carbon-based Noise-Dissipation shield and a 72v Dielectric-Bias System, with a mono XLR plug at each end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eHusky is also made with RCA plugs. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audioadvisor.com\/products\/audioquest-husky-subwoofer-cable-2-0-meter-rca-to-rca-single\" style=\"color:#8a5a2b;\"\u003eAudioQuest Husky RCA\u003c\/a\u003e is the choice when your electronics and subwoofer use RCA jacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther length \u0026amp; termination options are available.

It calls this a cost-effective way to make a very high-quality subwoofer cable. The conductors are solid, which eliminates strand-interaction distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.25em;margin:1.4em 0 0.35em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eTriple-Balanced Geometry and a 72v Bias\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eHusky's three conductors include a separate ground-reference conductor, so the shield is never used as an inferior conductor. Whether prepared with RCA or XLR plugs, the three conductors give the positive and negative signals equally good, low-distortion paths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eAudioQuest's 72v Dielectric-Bias System works on the insulation between the conductors, which affects the integrity of the signal. An integrated ground wire with spade lugs helps eliminate hum. The Carbon-Based 4-Layer Noise-Dissipation system provides 100% shield coverage against radio-frequency interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.05em;margin:0.9em 0 0.25em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eCold-Welded, Hanging-Silver Plugs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThe plugs are cold welded, with Hanging-Silver directly over pure red copper.
