AudioQuest Mini-3: A Truly Audiophile-Worthy Extension Cable Now Save Over 60% While Supplies Last! No need to compromise on cables when you need a little more distance for your headphones or iPod. Mini-3 is a deliciously open and rich sounding cable, bringing a high level of finesse to the mini-cable market. Designed from the ground up as a full-blown audio cable in a smaller form factor, Mini-3 delivers a surprisingly robust level of performance with a big sound top to bottom and gobs of resolution and soundstaging. Tonal balance is smooth and textured with excellent midrange presence, super-sweet high frequency extension and solid deep bass power. Compared with its bigger brothers, Mini-3 is just ever so slightly forgiving and an excellent choice for those whose musical tastes range all over the map and want everything to sound good. Construction Mini-3 is composed of four individual solid-core conductors in a single jacket, two positives and two negatives, which allows for multiple configurations within a single cable. Around this quad, a foil shield with a drain-wire protects delicate analog signals and keeps noise levels down. In cables with a three conductor connection such as mini to mini cables, Mini-3 doubles up the negative conductors, creating a very strong ground path which greatly lowers the noise floor. Solid Core Conductors Mini-3, like virtually all of AQ's cables, uses solid-core conductors for the analog pathway. Solid-core conductors are more efficient at transmitting small signals than stranded cables and are also vastly lower in distortion, a difference that is clearly audible from the first instant; the system sounds like someone turned up the volume! This efficiency also translates to more music coming through, plug in a Mini-3 and hear things in your music you've never heard before, literally! Perfect Surface Copper (PSC) Mini-3 uses PSC conductors for all four signal conductors. PSC is creat
