AudioQuest X4BULK is a high-quality speaker cable designed to provide superior sound quality for your audio system. It features semi-solid concentric packed conductors that reduce harshness and confusion caused by strands changing position within the bundle. The Long-Grain Copper construction means fewer impurities, less grain junctions, and lower distortion. The low-inductance geometry preserves time information, preserving dynamics and clarity. X4BULK is easy to terminate, with color-coded conductors for easy identification.

Multiple Strands interact electrically and mechanically, causing irritation and one-note bass boom.
“Oxygen-Free” Copper is Oxygen-Reduced, but is not selected for low distortion.
High-Inductance Geometry smears sound, reduces information.
Semi-solid concentric packed conductors reduce harshness and confusion caused by strands changing position within the bundle.
Long-Grain Copper means fewer impurities, less grain junctions, lower distortion.
Low-Inductance Geometry preserves time information, preserving dynamics and clarity.
TERMINATION DIRECTIONS: The 4 concentric packed conductors of X4 can be easily
separated and then stripped individually. Take care not to cut the conductors when stripping
off ½” (12mm) of PVC jacket. Please follow the color code indicated by the 2 color stripes.
Attach the 2 color-striped conductors to a Black (-) AudioQuest CF-Spade or
CF-BFA/Banana connector. AQ CF connector packs include an Allen-key tool for tightening
the 2 set-screws. Tighter is better. Attach the 2 un-striped conductors to a Red (+) connector.
If your speaker or amplifier has a screw-terminal or a binding post, you can insert the
stripped ends of X4 directly. Then, screw down the connection. Tighter is better for
preventing corrosion of the connection.

TYPICAL SPEAKER CABLE

STRANDS CHANGE POSITION
In a conventional cable, distortion caused by
electrical and magnetic interaction are
compounded as each strand changes position
within the bundle.
STRANDS DO NOT CHANGE POSITION
In a Semi-Solid concentric packing cable,
strands within the smaller, tighter concentric
bundle do not change position, significantly
reducing distortion.
