AudioQuest Black Lab Sub 12m
Subwoofer Interconnect
£124.95
The AudioQuest Black Lab Sub Cable has been designed specifically for subwoofers and features a unique grouding cable to minimise hum.
Unique grounding cable
In most cases this won't be needed but if you suffer excessive hum from your subwoofer, then the Black Lab should be able to help. By connecting the ground cable to the metal chassis of your sub and the ground on your amp, earth hum problems should be solved.
Solid-core conductors for low distortion
For many years Audioquest has advocated solid-core rather than multi-strand cables. Electrical and magnetic interaction between strands in conventional cables can cause distortion, giving an unnatural edge to the sound and picture. Using Long-Grain Copper, the Audioquest Black Lab gives a cleaner, clearer sound than regular cables using OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper, thanks to fewer impurities.
Air-filled foamed-polyethylene insulation
Wire insulation can cause an imperfect signal by absorbing energy and then releasing it as distortion. The Black Lab uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene as air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile. The result is reduced distortion for an even purer sound quality.
Cold-welded, gold-plated plugs
By using a high pressure weld rather than solder, there's less chance of a faulty connection between cable and plug. Not only does this lead to a more reliable connection in the long term but it also ensures low resistance and, hence, low distortion connection for the entire life of the cable.
Treat your subwoofer to a cable that's designed to get the best from it - the AudioQuest Black Lab.

Sub cable - Black lab
This cable successfully connected my PV1 sub to my Marantz amplifier beautifully. Sound is so much smoother than the previous QED cable, it’s almost like it’s a brand new sub. Got to love AQ cables they really bring out the music that sometimes gets hidden by inferior connections.

Top quality cable
This was an excellent in-store recommendation to tie in with a high end subwoofer. Great sound and build quality.

Great team, great products, great prices!
I needed advice about speakers and subs as wanted to build my home cinema and the guys at Exeter shop were amazing in making me feel home, explaining everything in a way a human non tech savvy such as me could easily understand and tested emonstrated different set ups, etc.
I fully recommend them!

So so helpful!!!
I am currently having a house built and have chose the system I am having, but I’ve only purchased the wiring so far and will be getting the rest in the next few weeks.
Dale in Newcastle just couldn’t be more helpful
