Our Beginning
In 1997 HGA began its mission to develop the finest audio cable products. Our founder was intrigued with the idea of using ultra-high-purity silver wire as the core material in the construction of a series of fine audio cables. Used in the medical research industry for its superior electrical strengths and physical properties, silver was starting to be recognized for its superior sonic characteristics within the hi-fi community. These materials were a natural choice for building audio products designed to deliver uncompromising performance.

Continued Commitment
Determined to make a contribution to high-end audio, over the years HGA has continued to invest in the research, materials, and infrastructure that have enabled our complex designs to become a reality. While industry advantages such as proprietary computer-modeling software and customized machinery have become essential in our design process, we also like to think it is our commitment to detail that sets us apart. To this day, HGA's employees utilize the same surgical precision that has been applied to our designs since day one.

Smart Growth
As our company has grown so has its diversity. Indeed, HGA benefits from the talents and contributions of numerous professionals with greatly varied experience. This includes individuals with backgrounds in physics, medicine, human physiology, music, and more than thirty years of experience in electrical engineering. But most importantly, we still consider ourselves to be music lovers at heart.     (back to top)

Uncompromising Performance
Innovation and design are our passion at HGA. We have consistently proven that by employing the best quality components, solid engineering, and out-of-the-box thinking, it is possible to produce world-class products that excel both sonically and in terms of electrical performance. As audio and video aficionados, we understand the need to continually refine performance and are committed to bringing our customers remarkable products without compromise.

Customer Service
At HGA, you won't find big budget advertising campaigns and quick-sell gimmicks. You just won't. What you will find is a level of service and reliability that is uncommon in today's marketplace. We like to think of our clients as partners in the sense that our futures are tied to each other's mutual success. Those who have worked with us in the past realize the value of this relationship.

Ultimate Quality
Our tradition of excellence stems from three original HGA employees who are now practicing surgeons! We understand the precision and materials necessary to build the highest performing products. Our quality control is truly second to none. You can depend on HGA to deliver a proven design that is well researched, meticulously constructed, and market tested for use in the most demanding audio-visual systems.     (back to top)

The Best Materials Available
We purchase large quantities of the raw materials used to make our silver wire from the finest suppliers across the United States. Together with the expertise of these well-chosen partner companies, we confidently offer the best quality silver wire currently available from any source.

To further illustrate how this is accomplished, each month we purchase thousands of ounces of high-purity (99.99%) silver directly from a precious metals refiner who specializes in lab-grade products. We start with a guaranteed product from a reliable and reputable source.

Flawless Production
The raw silver is precisely drawn into wire via a slow and labor-intensive process that ensures perfect uniformity. The company we contract with for this part of production caters primarily to the medical/research community. Their expertise provides an exceptionally thin and uniform product not available elsewhere.

Finally, the finest Teflon™ insulation is applied to the substrate wire. This results in an insulated wire with the highest possible conductivity and best dielectric properties available.

While the best raw materials are essential, much of what we have to offer revolves around the braid geometries used in our cables. All braiding and other essential steps of production are done in-house with tremendous care and scrutiny. HGA has invested in multiple customized industrial braiding machines over the years, which allow us to produce essentially any cable geometry imaginable.     (back to top)
