Lightning Cables

Issued by Apple in late-2012 as a replacement for their 30-pin dock connector, lightning became the standard power + data bus connector for all their mobile devices. If you own any iPhone, iPad, or iPod built from early-2013 onwards, your device will probably have shipped with a charging / data cable featuring a lightning connector at one end, and a USB-A connector at the other. This allows your device to connect to a USB charging socket, and also to laptops, desktops, and other electronics peripherals.

In terms of hi-fi audio, a good-quality lightning cable is a must-have to connect your Apple device to an external DAC, either desktop or portable. Audio Sanctuary are official stockists of premium lightning cable manufacturers, including ADL and AudioQuest. Order online, contact us, or visit our London showroom.
