Product details
QED XT25 speaker cable was designed from the top down and its musical performance derived from QED's flagship Supremus cable in a more affordable package. QED has won more What Hi-fi? awards than any other single brand and with its XT25, this heritage is delivered at a sensible price.
The cable uses a variation of QED’s X-Tube™ Technology by creating a hollow tubular conductor geometry out of individual conductor bunches. This allows both high and low frequencies to pass with equal ease when compared to traditional solid or stranded conductors. The cable’s insulating material has also been carefully chosen; LDPE jacket with 100% coverage of Aluminium Mylar tape wrap. The low-loss dielectric (insulating material between positive and negative conductors) ensures high fidelity of sound as the signal moves back and forth several times a second.
QED XT25 has a large current carrying capacity as it’s made up of 99.999% oxygen-free copper. As a result, its electrical resistance is low and quality of sound heard remains true to the original.
Note: Banana plugs are not included.

FAQ:
What is an OFC cable?
An OFC cable is a copper cable typically used in audio applications, such as audio systems.
OFC stands for Oxygen Free Copper. The cable is made of pure copper, which makes it less likely to oxidize. OFC cables offer better electrical conductivity and are beneficial for the transmission of audio signals.
