It’s rare to encounter something genuinely novel in the realm of high-end audio. While there are certainly improvements, true innovation is uncommon. In the world of cabling, one of the most touted features is the dielectric material used. This ranges from advanced materials like Teflon and various polymers to more traditional solutions like cotton and wax. Some companies have even gone to the lengths of suspending wire within a network of ultra-thin Teflon threads, a process that takes several weeks to complete and results in a high price due to the labor involved. These methods were considered cutting edge—until now.

AerØ USB is the first cable in the industry to utilize aerogel as a dielectric.

All in order to achieve the highest possible fidelity that can be derived from a cable.

A New Era in Fidelity

Aerogel is a manmade silica compound renowned for being the lightest solid material known to mankind. With an air-to-solid ratio of 99.8%, aerogel is an incredibly effective thermal insulator, used by leading organizations like Boeing Aerospace and NASA for advanced engineering solutions. Its lightweight and exceptional thermal properties make it ideal for exotic applications, such as serving as a collection grid material on space probes for cosmic dust capture and insulation for Mars Rovers.

What many don’t realize is that aerogel is among the best dielectric materials available. Even standard silica outperforms Teflon in dielectric properties. The effectiveness of a dielectric is measured by its K value—the lower the value, the better the dielectric. Teflon has a K value around 2, while aerogel boasts a remarkable K value of 1.03, making it the best solid dielectric available.

Logically, this makes aerogel an ideal dielectric material for cabling. However, aerogel’s incredible brittleness and low tensile strength make it impractical for such applications—it would simply crumble and fail to hold its form. Traditional solutions couldn’t overcome these challenges. Determined to harness aerogel’s superior properties, we dedicated two years to research and development, inventing a groundbreaking process from the ground up. With a patent granted, we are proud to introduce our technological tour-de-force: AerØ USB.

What are the Benefits of Aerogel as a Dielectric?

The simple answer: sonic superiority. The aerogel compound used in all our AerØ products offers numerous benefits. Aerogel has a dielectric constant that rivals and even surpasses Teflon. Unlike Teflon or foamed Teflon, aerogel doesn’t over-damp the signal wire. Over-damping happens when heavy materials are in constant contact with the bare wire, stripping away the nuance and detail from the music.

Aerogel, being almost non-existent in terms of physical presence, gently damps the wire from vibration without allowing it to vibrate within the dielectric like air/Teflon tube designs. This enables the signal to propagate naturally, reducing solid material contact with the signal wires. With aerogel, AerØ achieves an effective air dielectric percentage of 99.8%—an industry first.

Hand Polished to a Highly Refined Finish

The UPOCC copper or silver wire internal to AerØ is among the best quality available. However, copper is relatively reactive and as such, it is all subject to oxidation and marring due to storage, shipping, and general handling. The result is wire that is less than ideal when it is received. We take this wire, remove imperfections, and bring the surface quality to a very high refinement.
