Q: What types of signals can be transmitted by the Rocket 88 speaker cable?
A: The Rocket 88 speaker cable can transmit analog signals. It uses Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors in aDouble Star-Quad configuration to reduce distortion and provide cleaner, clearer, and more naturally detailed sound.
Q: Why are solid conductors used in this speaker cable?
A: Solid conductors are used to prevent electrical interaction between strands, which is a major cause of distortion. This results in smoother and clearer audio transmission.
Q: How does the 72V DBS system improve the cable's performance?
A: The 72V DBS system minimizes dielectric noise and enhances the dissipation of induced radio-frequency noise across a wide bandwidth.
A: The Rocket 88 Bi-Wire Speaker Cable is the flagship model of the Rocket series. It features higher-purity conductormetal and a patented 72v Dielectric-Bias System for improved performance. The cable is also bi-wirable, which means itcan be used with speakers that have separate connections for the treble and bass frequencies. This reduces distortionand improves sound quality.
Q: What material is used for the conductors in the Rocket 88 speaker cable?
A: The conductors in the Rocket 88 speaker cable are made of Solid Copper.
A: The limited lifetime warranty offered by AudioQuest for the Rocket 88 speaker cable covers both parts and labor.
Q: Are the banana connectors on the Rocket 88 cable silver-plated?
A: The banana connectors on the Rocket 88 cable are silver-plated.
A: The Rocket 88 cable employs several technologies to minimize distortion and enhance sound quality. These include the useof Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors, a Double Star-Quad configuration, and AudioQuest's patented 72vDielectric-Bias System (DBS). These technologies work together to reduce distortion, improve clarity, and provide a morenatural sound.

Experience cleaner, clearer, more naturally beautiful sound with 8’ AudioQuest Rocket 88 Full-Range speaker cable. This flagship model from AudioQuest’s award-winning Rocket Series incorporates Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation, Direction-Controlled conductors, and a patented 72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) that work together to minimize dielectric noise and improve wide-bandwidth dissipation of induced radio-frequency noise. Ideal for full-range speaker systems, Rocket 88 features high-quality silver-plated spades plugs and uses Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors in a Double Star-Quad configuration to minimize distortion. Combining premium materials and meticulous design, AudioQuest Rocket 88 is an exceptional choice for high-performance stereo systems and home theaters.
AudioQuest Rocket 88 Bi-Wire speaker cable is the flagship model of the company’s versatile Rocket Series. It shares several outstanding design elements with its award-winning siblings, but significantly improves overall performance with its higher-purity conductor metal and patented 72v Dielectric-Bias System. Appropriate for bi-wirable speaker systems and terminated with high-quality silver-plated banana plugs, AudioQuest Rocket 88 is a high-performance speaker cable resolving enough for most high-end audio systems. Rocket 88 uses only AudioQuest’s very best copper, Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+), in a Double Star-Quad configuration designed to reduce distortion for cleaner, clearer, more naturally detailed sound. Like other models in the Rocket Series, Rocket 88 features AudioQuest’s effective Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation, and, as with all AudioQuest cables, the conductors in Rocket 88 are Direction-Controlled to minimize the damaging effects of radio-frequency noise. Taking noise-dissipation even further, Rocket 88 adds AudioQuest’s patented 72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS), which minimizes dielectric noise and improves wide-bandwidth dissipation of induced radio-frequency noise. Whenever possible, running separate cables to the treble and bass portions of a bi-wirable loudspeaker significantly reduces distortion. For these applications, an AudioQuest cable like Rocket 88 Bi-Wire keeps the large magnetic fields associated with bass energy out of the treble cable, allowing the delicate upper frequencies to travel a less disturbed path, like taking the waves out of the water when you swim. The result is smoother, clearer, more natural sound. With its thoughtful, time-tested combination of high-quality materials and design elements, AudioQuest Rocket 88 is an outstanding choice for high-performance audio systems.
