Description
For sale is a trade back pair of 10ft Audioquest Rocket 44 speaker cables in excellent condition. These speaker cables have terminations with banana plugs which make connecting to speakers and amplifiers a breeze. These were barely used before being traded back for a longer pair when our client changed his speaker positioning in his room.Many people often question speaker cables at this price point. Do they make a difference? What are the benefits to spending this kind of money? AudioQuest is a world renowned company and the reason for this is the build quality of their products, the materials used, and the significant sound difference you get by using proper speaker cable in a good system. AudioQuest is the leading brand for speaker cables because their product is superior in sound quality and thats what counts when youre trying to achieve a truly great HiFi system.Rocket 44 incorporates Perfect-Surface Copper+ into its blend of conductors. PSC+ has fewer grain boundaries, which reduces harshness in the sound. This carefully finessed combination of PSC and PSC+ enables Rocket 44 to deliver a clear and faithful presentation.Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+)/Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) ConductorsThis cable uses a carefully finessed combination of Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) and extremely high purity Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors. The astonishingly smooth and pure Perfect-Surface eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity compared to OFHC, OCC, 8N and other coppers. Extremely high-purity PSC+ further minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries, which exist within any metal conductor.Double Star-Quad GeometryThe relationship between conductors defines a cables most basic electrical values (capacitance and inductance). However, even when those variables are kept in reasonably neutral balance, the particular geometric relationship between conductors greatly affects the sound. Star-Quad geometry is not only vastly superior to conductors run in parallel, but also to the same conductors as two twisted pairs.Carbon-Based Noise- and Crosstalk-Dissipation SystemThis cables negative conductors are covered with partially conductive Carbon-Loaded Polyethylene. This remarkable material reduces radio-frequency garbage being fed back into the amplifier. The sonic benefit is exactly the same reduction in hash and improved dimensionality that comes whenever RF interference is reduced in an audio circuit. In addition, a carbon layer damps interaction between positive and negative conductors, and an external Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation System reduces external interference. Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation (For All Positive Conductors)Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect circuit. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy. Some of this energy is stored and then released as distortion. This cable, however, uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation on both conductors. Because air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile, Foamed-PE, with its high air content, causes much less of the out-of-focus effect common to other materials. - AudioQuest Decibel Audio is a retail store and custom installation business in the Wicker Park neighborhood of Chicago.
