Blackstar cables have high quality braided shielding which provides superior durability and electrical insulation compared to spiral shielding found in other cables.

Blackstar believes in removing barriers to creativity by creating the highest quality products. The same philosophy applies to their cables, combining best in class quality and reliability with Blackstar's design vision. Their cables have PVC jackets for excellent flexibility, this also helps to reduce cable tangling. Heat-shrink tubes are also used around the solder connections providing ultimate protection. The 6.5mm / 1/4 outer jacket also increases flexibility and durability of the cables, and an added shield ring reduces capacitance and unwanted noise interference.
