AudioQuest Vodka Optilink Cable

The AudioQuest Vodka Optical features 217 narrow-aperture synthetic fibers of the highest possible purity in order to minimize timing errors, improve bandwidth, and optimize the audio performance of digital devices. The fiber ends have been precision-polished to provide zero diffraction and thus no light distortion.

The problem often encountered with optical fiber transmission is that dispersed light does pass through this type of optical digital cable Toslink connector, but only after taking a longer path, like a pool ball bouncing off the side rails, causing it to arrive with latency. This delayed part of the signal prevents the processor from decoding the information properly, or even at all. This reduced bandwidth is a measurable signature of light being dispersed by a fiber. The conclusion: the less dispersion in the fiber, the less distortion in the final analog audio signal.
