From California's Cable Revolutionary

AudioQuest founder Bill Low didn't just want to make better cables—he wanted to understand why cables sound different at all. Since 1980, AudioQuest has pursued cable design with scientific rigor, developing technologies like Perfect-Surface metals and advanced geometries that have redefined signal transmission. Named after the mighty Yukon River, this interconnect delivers a powerful flow of musical information that honors AudioQuest's four decades of innovation.

The Yukon sits strategically in AudioQuest's Rivers series—above the entry-level MacKenzie but offering serious performance with PSC+ conductors and Purple Copper connectors. This open-box pair in like-new condition offers access to AudioQuest's core technologies at a significant discount from retail.

PSC+ Copper—The Perfect-Surface Revolution

The Yukon employs Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors, representing a major leap beyond standard OFC. AudioQuest's proprietary drawing process creates an exceptionally smooth surface that minimizes the strand interaction causing harshness in conventional cables. The "+" designation indicates even longer grain structure than standard PSC, with fewer grain boundaries to impede signal flow.

This isn't marketing hyperbole—PSC+ conductors measure demonstrably lower distortion than standard copper, with grain boundaries thousands of times longer than typical OFC. The result is copper that behaves more like a single crystal, eliminating the micro-distortions that accumulate into the harsh, grainy sound of lesser cables.

Purple Copper Plugs—Direct Gold Over Pure Copper

AudioQuest's Purple Copper RCA plugs eliminate the nickel and brass layers found in standard connectors. By plating gold directly over pure purple copper (the highest grade electrolytic copper), these plugs provide superior conductivity and eliminate the dissimilar metal junctions that degrade signal transfer. The cold-welded connections ensure the purest possible signal path from conductor to component without the sonic degradation of solder.

Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry

The Yukon features AudioQuest's asymmetrical double-balanced geometry where separate conductors for positive and negative maintain optimal relationships while a dedicated ground conductor provides superior noise rejection. This configuration ensures phase coherence across the frequency spectrum while rejecting interference that muddles the musical message.

Metal and Carbon-Based Noise Dissipation

Rather than conventional shielding that can store and release interference, Yukon employs AudioQuest's metal and carbon-based noise dissipation system. This approach provides effective RFI rejection without the compression effects that traditional shields can introduce. The combination effectively drains noise away from the signal conductors, maintaining the open, dynamic quality that distinguishes AudioQuest cables.
