Sound first. While 8K and other compelling video/gaming features make the HDMI headlines, AudioQuest's 48 and eARC-Priority Series HDMI cables are our best-sounding HDMI cables yet. The precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to deliver HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps bandwidth allow all of AudioQuest's tried-and-true ingredients and techniques to matter every bit as much as before. And, of course, judiciously applied and newly learned techniques and materials are introduced.

 

 

AudioQuest's entry models, Pearl 48 and Forest 48, were the first HDMI-2.1 cables to receive HDMI LLC's Ultra High Speed certication; now all AudioQuest 48 Gbps models are certified. HDMI only certifies a bare minimum, though of course no AudioQuest cable is only a "bare minimum".

 

The 48Gbps bandwidth necessary for all of HDMI's new and future features is made possible by upgrading the 4 balanced audio/video channels from 6 to 12Gbps.

AudioQuest 48Gpbs HDMI cables can transfer up to professional 10K Ultra-HD video, including resolutions/refresh rates upp to 8K/60 and 4K/120. All 48G cables are completely backwards compatible with existing 4K displays.

Further, AudioQuest 18Gbps and 48Gbps HDMI cables are compatible with all varieties of HDR (including HDR10+ and Dolby Vision), which can be found on Ultra-HD Blu-ray and all major streaming services, including Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+, and others.

 

Increasingly thick layers of silver plating are applied to AudioQuest's Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors to improve Noise-Dissipation. Placing the superior metal on the outside of the conductor produces the greatest benefit on overall performance-a superbly cost-effective way to maximize a digital cable.

 

Traditinal "100% shielding" is not enough against today's increasingly prevalent Wi-Fi, Cellular, and Satellite radiation, especially because all metal conductors act as antennae, picking up Radio-Frequency Noise.

In AudioQuest HDMI cables, all 19 conductors, including the critically important eARC and power pairs, are Director-Controlled, dissipating noice and draining it away from the most sensitive electronics to where it will cause the least harm.

Direction-Controlled is our foundational, Level 1, Noise-Dissipation. AudioQuest HDMI cables employ multiple levels of Noise-Dissipation technologies, each adding layers of superior high-loss materials to combat RF Noise. Our most advanced and comprehensive defense against noise, Level 6 Noise Dissipation, employs AQ's patented Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) with a Level-X RF Noise Trap that effectively "pulls" RF noise out of the cable.

 

 Because sound matters, eARC gets equal love and affection with the same superior metals, Direction-Controlled Conductors, and Noise-Dissipation technologies as the main AV data pairs.

HDMI's Audio Return Channel (ARC) sends audio from a TV to a soundbar or AV receiver for greater simplicity and flexibility in system setup. Hardware's previous ARC capabilities max out at lossy (compressed) 5.1-channel surround sound.

Today's HDMI 2.1 hardware supports enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC), which increases the digital bandwidth dramatically to support uncompressed and lossless high-resolution multichannel audio, including Dolby TrueHD and Atmos, and DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS:X.

AudioQuest 's eARC-Priority models include 4 Silver-Plated Forest 48-level audio/video data pairs-but with a far superior single data pair for the TV's audio output. By upgrading the eARC data path only, audiophile quality is made possible at a fraction of the cost of upgrading all 5 data pairs.

 

 A look inside AudioQuest'f FireBird 48 HDMI cables. Direction-Controlled conductors continue to be the foundation of AudioQuest's effective Noise-Dissipation, but now this is taken to its logical extreme. In AudioQuest HDMI cables, all 19 conductors, A/V and eARC signals, all Ground-Reference drains, control and power conductors, are controlled for the most efficient dissipation of Radio-Frequency Noise.

 

 

Forest 48

Forest 48 features 0.5% Silver-Plated Copper conductors that have been direction-controlled for the most efficient dissipation of radio-frequency noise.


48Gbps Bandwidth
AudioQuest “48” HDMI cables can transfer up to professional 10K Ultra-HD video. The 48Gbps bandwidth is made possible by 4 balanced audio/video pairs capable of 12Gbps each. The precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to produce HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps bandwidth mean many of AudioQuest’s tried-and-true ingredients and techniques are more important than ever before.


8K/10K
AudioQuest 48Gbps HDMI cables have the bandwidth required for video with resolutions up to 10K and resolutions/refresh rates up to 8K/60 and 4K/120. All AudioQuest HDMI cables are completely backwards compatible with existing 4K displays.

 

0.5% Silver-Plated Copper A/V Conductors (HDMI)
In AudioQuest HDMI cables, increasingly thick layers of silver plating are applied to AudioQuest’s Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors to improve Noise-Dissipation. Placing the superior metal on the outside of the conductor produces the greatest benefit on overall performance—a superbly cost-effective way to maximize a digital cable. Forest 48 uses 0.5% Silver-Plated Copper for its conductors.


Level 1 Noise Dissipation (HDMI): Direction-Controlled
This is the foundation of AudioQuest’s Noise-Dissipation technologies. Traditional “100% shielding” is not enough to guard against the increasingly prevalent effects of Wi-Fi, cellular, and satellite radiation. In AudioQuest HDMI cables, all 19 conductors are Direction-Controlled to minimize the RF Noise that damages performance by “directing” or draining it away from the most vulnerable circuits. Additional Noise-Dissipation techniques (Levels 2 and up) are applied as budget permits to further reduce noise.


eARC: 0.5% Silver + Level-1 Noise Dissipation
Because sound matters, the eARC conductors in AudioQuest's 48-Series HDMI cables receive equal love and affection, featuring the same superior metals, Direction-Controlled Conductors, and Noise-Dissipation technologies as the main AV data pairs. In AudioQuest eARC-Priority cables, the main A/V data pairs have Cinnamon-level performance (Forest 48’s solid 0.5% Silver + Carbon & Vodka 48’s Level-3 Noise-Dissipation), while the eARC data pair and Ground-Reference drain use all the same advanced design ingredients as their “48” counterparts. HDMI’s Audio Return Channel (ARC) sends audio from a TV to a soundbar or AV receiver for greater simplicity and flexibility in system setup. Hardware’s previous ARC capabilities max out at lossy (compressed) 5.1-channel surround sound. Today’s HDMI 2.1 hardware supports enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC), which increases the digital bandwidth dramatically to support uncompressed and lossless high-resolution multichannel audio, including Dolby TrueHD and Atmos, and DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS: X.

Great sunscreen!
Style: SPF 50 Stick, Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Great sunscreen for babies/toddlers. It works well and it was a breeze to apply. It did take some effort to rub in. The product itself is very small, so it’s convenient to carry in your pocket or throw in a bag. But I’ve also misplaced it a few times.

Nice sunscreen!
Style: SPF 50 Stick, Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My favorite toddler sunscreen! We mainly use this for my toddlers face and neck, as it’s easy application and doesn’t get all over my hands. Would definitely recommend, it’s easy to have in your diaper bag!

Good for face application, small, takes effort to rub in
Style: SPF 50 Stick, Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Bought this because I thought it might make face application easier with my toddler. He definitely prefers it, mostly because he thinks it’s fun to apply and he can do it himself. But it also takes a little more effort to rub in than just the thin normal liquid copper tone baby mineral sunscreen. Gives pretty good protection though, once it’s all rubbed in! It rolls up like a deodorant stick, so you can keep it low. It’s very small, like the palm of your hand, so it’s best just to use for face. If you use it on the whole body, you’ll run out fast. It’s nice to slip into the diaper bag without it adding too much weight or worrying that it’ll open and get everywhere!

Not just for kids!
Style: SPF 50 Stick, Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
As an adult I still do not like to use chemical sunscreens on my skin, but prefer the mineral type (zinc oxide). This one is easy to apply, goes on smoothly, and with its essential oils it even acts as a conditioner. I use it on my face and neck mostly, choosing to keep my arms, etc, covered. Used it for several seasons with good results.
