- In Part II of our AudioQuest video tour, you'll meet AQ's SVP of Marketing and Product Development, Joe Harley, who discusses several of the key ingredients that go into every AudioQuest cable. You'll hear about AQ's Four Elements, see a spec sheet for our Oak loudspeaker cable, and learn why it's so important to control for proper conductor directionality.
Why would cable direction make a difference for an AC signal?
Audiophiles know that sound is better when it travels at the speed of light. Long live the optical cable.
This openness is a good thing, but I see it as part 1. I've discussed it sereral times with Jules, and there is still a long way to go. In over 16 years of time I have done thousends of tests in audio. Cables have been the most tested tool in these 16 years. I use properties and look for the right properties of a cable. I know exactly what they do. Audioquest is in my opinion one of the few brands who own all the different properties a cable should own. And they do all these different parts as they should be played and heard. These days I do consulting and love all the different products Audioquest produces. I use the least expensive cables for my projects till the more expnsive cables like the Wild and Well for highend clients. At the end they all have the same properties. I know the importantcy and what they give you extra in quality in your set. I started in 2002 with blind audiotests. Expensive source with a cheap powercable and a less expensive source with a very expensive powercable. The last one was cheaper than the first set. All people prefered the option with the more expnsive powercable. In 12 years of time I have done many of these tests. My focus is alway on the endresults. I want my clients to get the best increase in performance fot the money they are able to spend. This is so much easier to achieve with cables than with a more expensive source, speaker or amp. This is something people need to be taught. So here comes the second part. At shows we need to show what they do and bring extra in quality in performance. I always say: the best sound always will win. This is how I work. I always what to give a client a higher endresult than any competitor can give to him or her.
Cables like the new Wild dog and Well Signature ( I have bought these cables myself this year) set a new standard in performance. This is very easy to be explained to other people. You do not need an education to understand the extra quality they give to you. People prefer the best sound, so teach them why Audioquest will give them a higher performance in the overall sound. The best sound always will win!
Отличные кабели, но если бы они были бы дешевле😢
Rube Goldberg!!! How goofy,
The first quality cable that I owned was an Audioquest Ruby. I was not able to test for directionality because it was a RCA to DIN cable. The amplifier I owned had DIN sockets. I do recall that this cable gave a pretty good bump in sound quality, details were much better resolved and in terms of separation there was a sense of air and space between individual instruments.
I own Audioquest RCA (2 sets) and a pair of Audioquest speaker cables. I can't remember the name of them right now. They sound impressive. The thing about the directionality is true. I have tried them backwards and they do not sound as good. I am hooked on audioquest for life now.
WIRELESS!! Best cable is NO cable, AudioQuest out of business!?
WIRELESS ya big dope!
