Audioquest Cheetah 1m XLR interconnects pair 36v DBS

Audioquest Cheetah 1m XLR interconnects pair 36v DBS (41 3/4" end to end)

Excellent condition, tested before listing. Single owner, known to be authentic (purchased from the Pacific Northwest’s premiere dealer: Definitive Audio). From the estate of a passionate audiophile and serious collector where this had minimal use as the individual had multiple audio setups.

Photos show actual item for sale. The woven cable covers are intact without fraying or separation at the connectors. There is minor paint wear on the connector labels (see photos). 36v DBS battery packs have charge. Maintained in a smoke-free and pet-free climate controlled environment. Will be packed with care and shipped fully insured. Please contact us before payment if you wish to combine shipping with other cables we have listed for sale.

From Audioquest:

PSS CONDUCTORS: Solid conductors prevent strand interaction, a major source of cable distortion. Extremely high-purity Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries which exist within any metal conductor, eliminating harshness and greatly increasing clarity compared to all other conducting materials. 

TEFLON AIR-TUBES: Air is the best insulation because it does not absorb and later release energy. Teflon is the best extrudable solid insulation because it absorbs less than other materials. The Teflon Air-Tubes used in Cheetah have almost nothing but air around the PSS conductors. 

DIELECTRIC-BIAS SYSTEM (patent pending): Greatly improved performance is made possible by a constant 36 volt charge on all Cheetah’s insulation. As 36 volts is far above the voltage of an audio signal, the result is considerably more transparency and dynamics than possible even from a cable in continuous use, with equipment that is never turned off. Because DBS battery packs are attached when Cheetah cables are assembled, Cheetah does not require an additional run-in period. Because there is no “load” on the single standard hardware-store battery, it will last for years. A test button and LED allow for occasional verification of battery performance. 

TRIPLE BALANCED: The 3 conductors in "Triple Balanced" Cheetah cable insure that whether prepared with RCA or XLR plugs, the positive and negative signals have equally low distortion conducting paths. The 100% coverage shield is never used as an inferior audio conductor. 

WELDED PLUGS: 8,000 amps is used to weld RCA plugs to Cheetah, creating a perfect connection alloy where the cable and plug meet. A thick direct-silver plating provides the best possible connection.
