Audience frontRow USB Cable
Audience frontRow USB Cable
The frontRow USB brings the complete MORRE platform to the USB connection. Four 29-strand conductors of 99.9999% pure OCC copper — Audience's highest conductor purity — in frontRow twinaxial geometry. PTFE Teflon dielectric on ground conductors, virgin XLPE on signal conductors. OFC copper braid shield. MORRE Deep Cryo II and EHVP post-production treatment applied after final assembly. Three to four day factory burn-in.
The MORRE Platform
MORRE — Mono-Ohno Round-Robin Engineered — combines multiple post-production treatments that Audience developed over years of cable engineering. Deep Cryo II treatment addresses the conductor material at the metallurgical level. EHVP (Extremely High Voltage Pulse) conditioning treats the dielectric. Both applied after the cable is fully assembled means the treatments interact with the completed cable geometry rather than individual components in isolation.
The Factory Burn-In
The three to four day factory burn-in is not a marketing detail — it's recognition that cables, like components, have a break-in period that affects their final character. Delivering a cable that is already burned-in means you hear what the frontRow USB actually sounds like from the first day, rather than waiting for it to settle in.
Press Recognition
The Audience frontRow line has been reviewed by The Absolute Sound, Positive Feedback, and Stereophile. The frontRow USB specifically has been cited as among the most effective USB cables for audio applications.
