Kimber GQMini-Cu
“The midrange has a wonderful smoothness while frequency extremes sounded more extended… Clarity, imaging and the usual audiophile stuff was vastly improved… There is no going back.” — Stephen Rochlin, Enjoy The Music, April 2006
Today’s portable audio formats have definitely found their way into the world of traditional hi-fi. To facilitate the connection of a portable audio player to your home stereo system Kimber Kable developed the GQ Mini series of multi-purpose cables. The GQ Mini uses the advanced Gryoquadratic geometry (4-wire) braid which reduces outside noise. Just connect the 1/8″ (3.5mm) mini plug to your portable device (or computer) and the end with the stereo RCA connectors to your home stereo system. 4 VariStrand copper conductors. The GQ Mini cable has the additional option of a mini plug on one end and another on the opposite.
Kimber GQMini-Cu uses Kimber’s 4-wire GyroQuadratic cable braid and high quality plugs – besides the 3.5mm jack at the player end of the cable, there’s a choice of Kimber UltraPlate phonos, nickel-plated 3.5mm mini jack or Nickel phono connectors at the equipment end.
If your phone or audio player has a 3.5mm headphone output, GQMini-Cu is an effective way to connect your portable player and share the music on it.
Back in the mid 70’s, Kimber Kable founder Ray Kimber discovered that his custom braided wire concept not only eliminates noise, but also improves fidelity – ultimately leading to richer, more accurate sound, and an improved listening experience. Kimber Kable has been constantly improving and modifying this design ever since, and have been handcrafting their unique interconnects since 1979. This is the GQMINI-CU RCA to 1/8″ interconnect that features Kimber’s advanced OGQ/2 geometry (4-wire) braid construction and stranded hyper-pure copper conductors to deliver clear and rich audiophile grade sound from point A to point B.
