THE DEFINITION Of YIQ: CinemaQuest YIQ component video cables
include three identical maximum performance coaxial cables, one for each of the three component signals;
the "Y" (b&w) signal and the "I" and "Q" signals (also known as Pb and Pr), which contain all the color
information. In the two channel S-video system (also known as Y/C), the "I" and "Q" component signals are
combined to create a single "C" signal. When available, a three channel component signal is better because
it avoids the degradation caused by the process of combining and separating.
THE INGREDIENTS: YIQ-5 uses a Solid Silver (Perfect-Surface
Silver) center conductor insulated with Hard-Cell Foam (HCF). Normal 1.25% silver-plate greatly improves
high frequency performance for a fraction of the cost of solid silver. 2.5% and 6.1% silver conductors
allow much higher performance. However, solid silver made using Perfect-Surface technology is the clear
answer to "How good can it get?" Nitrogen Injected HCF reduces distortion caused by the insulating
material. The combination Conductive PVC and Silver-Plated braid shield provides 100% protection coverage
and lower distortion. Silver-Plated RCA plugs are welded to YIQ-5 with 8,000 amps, commingling the
molecules for an ideal connection. BNC and D-Sub 15 connectors are also available.
