Seller's Description

AudioQuest Forest 48 HDMI Cable - 1M HDMI Cable As new - 1M Length.    Sound first. While 8K and other compelling video/gaming features make the HDMI headlines, AudioQuest’s 48 and eARC-Priority Series HDMI cables are our best-sounding HDMI cables yet. The greater precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to deliver HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps bandwidth mean all of AudioQuest’s tried-and-true ingredients and techniques matter every bit as much as ever before.

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

This one is still current-generation HDMI 2.1 kit, so timing matters less than on older cables: you’re buying into 48Gbps support for 4K/120, 8K/60, and eARC rather than an obsolete standard. At A$65, it looks like a strong buy versus the usual new-to-open-box asking level for this model, which is around A$119 at the listed RRP and typically higher through retail channels.

The appeal here is straightforward: AudioQuest’s Forest 48 is well regarded for solid build quality, reliable high-bandwidth handoff, and compatibility with demanding modern sources and displays. For a clean like new example, that’s the sweet spot—especially if it includes the original box and is the exact length you need. I’d treat it as a sensible grab for a serious setup, not just a generic HDMI lead.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About AudioQuest

Founded in 1980 by Bill Low in Irvine, California, AudioQuest traces its roots to 1978, when Low, a hi-fi store manager and avid enthusiast, began crafting superior audio cables to overcome the signal degradation he observed in existing products. Dissatisfied with subpar materials and construction, he prioritized advanced conductors like 6N copper, innovative insulation, and precise geometries, quickly earning acclaim after demos at events like the 1979 Summer CES. This passion-driven origin propelled AudioQuest from a cable innovator—first U.S. company to advance signal transmission in 1985—to a global force in high-performance audio.

While renowned for its expansive lineup of analog, digital, and AC power cables, including HDMI for video, AudioQuest has broadened into USB DACs and headphone amps, highlighted by the multi-award-winning DragonFly series launched in 2012. The brand also offers Niagara and PowerQuest power conditioners, alongside custom-install solutions, all engineered to maximize system fidelity without venturing into amplifiers, speakers, or turntables.

AudioQuest commands a premium position in the high-end market, supplying thousands of specialist retailers across 60 countries as the dominant cable provider for discerning audiophiles. Its relentless innovation, from conductor purity to dielectric design, delivers tangible performance gains, cementing a reputation for value and musicality that serious hi-fi buyers trust.
