About the QED Performance Audio Graphite
The multi-award winning Performance range brings design concepts from QED's high-end Reference range to the Performance Audio Graphite interconnect. These include quasi-balanced geometry, low capacitance dielectric materials and 24k gold plated RCA plugs. All QED cables are covered by a lifetime guarantee.
99.999% oxygen free copper conductors
OFC conductors resist degradation over time, ensuring a lasting connection for the life of the cable.
24k gold plated phono plugs
Gold does not tarnish, providing a lasting low-resistance contact at the plug interface.
Low density polyethylene dielectric
LDPE's low dielectric constant minimises audio signal energy lost due to cable capacitance.
Ergonomically sculptured zinc plated alloy barrel
Makes installation straightforward while providing a quality finish.
Quasi-balanced geometry
Signal and return conductors are twisted together to provide common mode noise rejection above that of conventional unbalanced cables.
Electrostatic screen
The Al/Mylar wrap provides immunity from external high-voltage noise. It is connected at the source end only, which is why the cable jacket carries directionality arrows.

About the QED QE6100
From our tech experts at CEN
The QED Performance QE6100 Audio Graphite is a 0.6m stereo RCA phono interconnect cable designed to connect a CD player, DAC or tuner to an amplifier or receiver. It uses 99.999% oxygen-free copper conductors, quasi-balanced twisted pair geometry and 24k gold-plated RCA plugs. All QED cables carry a lifetime guarantee.
Who it suits
This cable suits anyone building a compact hi-fi system where source and amplifier sit close together. The 0.6m length is appropriate when components are on the same shelf or stacked. For a longer run, the QE6101 1m version is the next step up.
Our tech experts advise
Measure the distance between your source and amplifier before ordering, as 0.6m leaves little slack. The cable jacket carries directionality arrows — connect the arrow end to your source, as the electrostatic screen is grounded there only. The 24k gold-plated plugs resist tarnish and maintain a low-resistance contact over time. Browse the full QED Performance range for other lengths and cable types.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What can I connect with the QED QE6100?
A: The QED Performance Audio Graphite 0.6m is a stereo RCA (phono) interconnect for connecting a CD player, DAC or tuner to an amplifier or receiver. It also suits AV amplifiers and DVD players with RCA connections.
Q: Is the QED Performance Audio Graphite cable directional?
A: Yes. The electrostatic screen is only connected at the source equipment end, which is why there are directionality arrows on the cable jacket. Follow the arrows when connecting your source to your amplifier or receiver.
Q: What plugs does the QED QE6100 use?
A: 24k gold plated QED 6 leaf RCA plugs with an ergonomically sculptured zinc plated alloy barrel. Gold does not tarnish, so it provides a lasting low resistance contact.
