    Quality cable!

    The Irish Red Subwoofer Cable exceeded my expectations. It’s robust, well-constructed, and durable with solid connectors that fit snugly into subwoofer and receiver ports. The sound quality improves significantly, with deeper, clearer bass and richer, more immersive audio. The sleek red design adds style, while its flexibility makes routing and installation easy. Considering its performance and quality, the cable is reasonably priced, making it an excellent investment for audio system upgrades. I’m thoroughly impressed with the cable’s superior sound quality and durability. It’s a must-have for audiophiles. I highly recommend it.

    Fantastic cable

    This is classic Audio Quest quality and performance, I went from using the bestbuy essentials cable to the Irish red and wow it was a massive difference in performance. The noise floor dropped significantly low frequency dynamics where greatly improved and my humming went away completely. I cannot recommend this cable enough the only thing negative is the price but if you want to best price to performance the Irish Red is the perfect cable to get.

    Looks to be of high quality

    Needed a subwoofer cable for a new Klipsch subwoofer and decided to go with this one. Looks to be a high quality cable and seems to work great with our 43" Samsung 7 series television and Sony receiver along with Klipsch tower speakers. I ended up not connecting the ground wires and may not be necessary. May have been able to get by with the 10' cable but got this one in case I need to move the subwoofer around for best performance.

    Quality Cables by AudioQuest

    Replaced a sub-woofer and cable due to lightning. This cable works perfectly to produce quality sound with a cord long enough to reach my equipment without having to use mirrors and ladders. Grounded to the chassis, I can feel the floor move under my seat while enjoying great movies and an immersive sound experience.

Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+)Solid conductors prevent both electrical and magnetic interaction strand-to-strand interaction major sources of distortion. Surface quality is critical because a conductor can be considered as a rail-guide for both the fields within a conductor and for the magnetic fields that extend outside the conductor. The astonishingly smooth and pure surface of all AudioQuests’s Perfect-Surface metals nearly eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity compared to lesser materials. Extremely high-purity Perfect-Surface Copper+ further minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries which exist within any metal conductor nearly eliminating harshness and greatly increasing clarity compared to OFHC OCC 8N and other coppers.Asymmetrical Double-Balanced GeometryPurpose designed for single-ended applications Asymmetrical Double-Balanced Geometry offers a relatively lower impedance on the ground for a richer and more dynamic experience. While many single-ended cable designs use a single path for both the ground and the shield Double-Balanced designs separate the two for cleaner quieter performance.Polyethylene Air-Tube InsulationAny 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. AudioQuest however uses Polyethylene Air-Tube Insulation on both conductors for increased geometry stabilization and improved clarity. Because air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile Polyethylene Air-Tube Insulation with its high air content causes much less of the out-of-focus effect common to other materials.Carbon-Based 3-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS)It's easy to accomplish 100% shield coverage.
