AudioQuest Cinnamon 48Gbps HDMI 2.1 Cable
Sound first. While 8K and other compelling video and gaming features make the HDMI headlines, AudioQuest’s Cinnamon 48 is engineered to be the best-sounding HDMI cable at its price point. The precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to deliver 48Gbps bandwidth mean AudioQuest’s tried-and-true conductor, shielding, and noise-dissipation technologies matter more than ever.
Cinnamon 48 features 1.25% Silver-Plated Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors, direction-controlled across all 19 conductors for the most efficient dissipation of RF noise. A metal-layer shield around the 4 FRL + eARC pairs provides additional protection against Wi-Fi, cellular, and satellite interference.

- Speaker cabinets cannot be replaced please handle with care.
AV & Stereo Amplifiers
