Utilizing the exclusive Uni-Path flat design and silver-clad OFC conductors, Starlight 8 USB provides higher fidelity than round USB cables selling for much more. Starlight's rich three-dimensional sound is created by reducing all types of noise and preserving more of the digital waveform. These cables far exceed the official USB 3.1 specifications. These flat cables utilize Wireworld’s exclusive Uni-Path conductor geometry, Composilex 3 insulation and noise-absorbing power conductors to improve the fidelity of music and video. The designs were developed through listening tests that compared prototype cables to virtually loss-free direct connections between components.

These flat cables utilize Wireworld’s exclusive Uni-Path conductor geometry, Composilex 3 insulation and noise-absorbing power conductors to improve the fidelity of music and video. The designs were developed through listening tests that compared prototype cables to virtually loss-free direct connections between components.

Wireworld’s exclusive Uni-Path conductor geometry uses dense multi-layer shields on each signal pair to provide extreme immunity to external noise and interference. This design also minimizes signal loss and crosstalk within the cable, for improved preservation of digital waveforms. The signal conductors in the red Starlight 8 cables are also 28AWG OFC, but they are coated with a generous layer of silver to further increase performance.

For Series 8, the upgrade to Composilex 3 and adding more strand groups has increased musicality, resolution and dynamic contrasts.

Customer Questions

Volevo solo saper se questo cavo supporta il protocollo Thunderbolt 3 o 4 ,prima di procedere con l'acquisto. Grazie mille per una risposta. B.Davide. Da Genova Italia.
The Wireworld Starlight 8 USB3.1 will not perform to the level required for a Thunderbolt connection. Thunderbolt 3/4 has a data transfer speed of 40Gps whereas USB3.1 only goes up to 10Gps. You would need a specific Thunderbolt cable to ensure everything works correctly
Non capisco bene la risposta nel senso che io volevo sapere se supporta Thunderbolt SI o NO' indipendentemente dalla velocità di connessione dati.
No it will not support Thunderbolt 3 or 4 due to the differences in data speed handling that I mentioned previously

I bought this cable for the USB-C connection between my Android mobile phone and a Chord Mojo 2 DAC. It is night and day better than any generic cable.

I am a big fan of Wireworld and also use their HDMI cables for TV and home cinema. Solid bass, a nice soundstage, and smooth, transparent treble. Recommended.
