Red River
North America has two Red Rivers, North and South. Red River South has been 
home to many peoples; it once was the border between the US and colonial Spain, 
and today forms part of the border between the rival states of Texas and 
Oklahoma.
Red River North forms in a confluence of rivers in North Dakota and 
Minnesota, but its history is Canada’s. The Red River North’s early settlers 
were the Métis, whose ancestry was French and aboriginal Canadian. The Métis in 
1869 began an uprising known as the Red River Rebellion, which challenged the 
Canadian government, eventually leading to the formation of the province of 
Manitoba.
SOLID LONG-GRAIN COPPER (LGC) CONDUCTORS: 
Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion. Red River’s solid 
Long-Grain Copper allows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using regular 
OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper. OFHC is a general metal industry 
specification regarding “loss” without any concern for distortion. LGC has fewer 
oxides within the conducting material, less impurities, less grain boundaries, 
and definitively better performance.
NITROGEN-INJECTED HARD-CELL FOAM 
INSULATION: Nitrogen-Injected Hard-Cell Foam insulation is used 
exclusively in most of AudioQuest’s video and digital audio cables. Similar to 
Foamed-PE, it is nitrogen-injected to create air pockets. ‘Hard’ foam is used 
because the stiffness of the material allows the conductors in the cable to 
maintain the same relationship with each other along the full length of the 
cable, thus ensuring that the characteristic impedance of the cable is 
consistent.
METAL-LAYER NOISE-DISSIPATION SYSTEM 
(NDS): 100% shield coverage is easy. Preventing captured RF Interference 
from modulating the equipment’s ground reference requires AQ’s Noise-Dissipation 
System. Noise-Dissipation System prevents a significant amount of RFI from 
reaching the equipment’s ground plane.
TRIPLE-BALANCED GEOMETRY: The three 
conductors in “Triple-Balanced” Red River cables ensure that whether prepared 
with RCA or XLR plugs, the positive and negative signals have equally 
low-distortion conducting paths. The 100% coverage shield is never used as an 
inferior conductor.
COLD-WELDED GOLD-PLATED PLUGS: This plug 
design allows for a connection devoid of solder, which is a common source of 
distortion. Because the ground shells are stamped instead of machined, the metal 
can be chosen for low distortion instead of machinability.
