AudioQuest Turntable Cables begin with Golden Gate, Yosemite, and Angel — three outstanding models from our critically acclaimed Bridges & Falls Series. With their left and right channels housed in a single jacket, these models are specially designed for physical flexibility and the versatility it affords — without unjustifiably sacrificing performance.

As with all AudioQuest cables, Golden Gate, Yosemite, and Angel combine superior materials and design elements to minimize distortion and efficiently dissipate noise: AudioQuest’s high-purity metals, carefully considered dielectric materials, and effective noise-dissipation technologies are all successfully employed.

Yosemite, Angel, and the top-of-the-line WEL Signature Limited Edition add to this solid foundation AudioQuest’s patented Dielectric-Bias System (DBS), which significantly improves wide-bandwidth dissipation of induced radio-frequency noise. Finally, WEL Signature has slightly larger conductors than Angel and incorporates alternating layers of metal and carbon-loaded synthetics to afford even greater noise-dissipation.

All four models in the series are packaged with a ground wire.

Do keep in mind, however, that the plugs on these cables are physically close together. If the L and R inputs of your components are more than 3″ (7.6cm) apart, consider combining an interconnect from our Rivers Series with a GroundGoody ground wire. AudioQuest’s ZERO-Tech interconnects (Black Beauty, Pegasus, ThunderBird, FireBird, and Dragon), whose design virtually eliminates component-to-cable impedance mismatch distortion, are not suitable for use from a turntable.
Solid Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) Conductors
Since the beginning, AudioQuest has pioneered the use of superior metals, yet even we were surprised by the huge leap in performance attained through the astonishingly smooth and pure surface of Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC). Proprietary metal-processing technology protects the wire's surface at every stage of drawing and fabrication. When high-purity low-oxide copper is kept as soft, pure, and smooth as possible, it becomes a wonderfully low-distortion conductor. In a conventional cable, electrical and magnetic interaction between strands is one of the greatest sources of distortion, often causing a somewhat harsh, dirty sound. Solid conductors are fundamental toward achieving a very clean, natural sound.
Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation
Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect circuit. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy. Some of this energy is stored and then released as distortion. Because air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile, Foamed-PE, with its high air content, causes much less of the out-of-focus effect common to other materials.
Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation
It's easy to accomplish 100% shield coverage. Preventing captured radio-frequency interference (RFI) from modulating the equipment's ground reference requires AQ's Noise-Dissipation. Traditional shield systems typically absorb and then drain noise/RF energy to component ground, modulating and distorting the critical "reference" ground plane, which in turn causes a distortion of the signal. Noise-Dissipation "shields the shield," absorbing and reflecting most of this noise/RF energy before it reaches the layer attached to ground.
Direction-Controlled Conductors
A fundamental aspect of AudioQuest's multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors ensure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.
Cold-Welded, Gold-Plated Terminations
This plug design allows for a connection devoid of solder, which is a common source of distortion. Instead of solder, the process employs a high-pressure technique. Because the ground shells are stamped instead of machined, the metal used can be chosen for low distortion instead of machinability.
