QED Reference Digital XLR40 AES/EBU – 3.0m

The Reference XLR 40 Digital by QED builds on their award-winning Audio 40 range, now available in AES/EBU digital form. Engineered for audiophiles and professionals alike, this cable is specifically designed to minimize jitter—one of the primary contributors to audio distortion. To address this, QED employs a unique floating Zn/Mn ferrite jacket that absorbs high-frequency noise and enhances micro-timing precision. This is combined with their proprietary Tri-Conductor™ technology, which introduces a third silver-plated conductor to reduce signal-to-ground capacitance and improve common-mode noise rejection. The cable also boasts rugged, gold-plated Neutrik XX-14 XLR connectors, ensuring long-term durability and exceptional conductivity. With ultra-low jitter performance and superior shielding, the XLR 40 is ideal for connecting DACs, preamps, streamers, and high-end amplifiers in professional and home audio systems.
