Wireworld's Uni-Path design utilizes 4 signal conductors to create 4 efficient paths for electromagnetic energy; twice as many as a conventional USB cable. The Chroma 8 also features Composilex 3 insulation technology to control electrostatic energy. Chroma USB brings the rewarding sound quality of the Uni-Path design and Composilex 3 down to a price that is only slightly higher than standard cables. Like all Wireworld USB cables, it also features an isolated noise-absorbing power conductor that improves sonic purity. Chroma 8 far exceeds the official USB 3.0 specifications. The plug contacts are made with 24K Gold-Plating for an efficient and effective connection.
