Q Acoustics - QED XT40i Pre-Terminated Speaker Cable – 2m (Pair) - "NA"

AudioQuest Rocket 44 Full-Range speaker cable shares several outstanding design elements with its award-winning sibling, the smaller-gauge Rocket 33, but improves overall performance with its higher-purity conductor metal. Appropriate for full-range speaker systems and terminated with high-quality silver-plated banana plugs, AudioQuest Rocket 44 is a versatile high-performance speaker cable resolving enough for high-end audio systems and practical enough for most home entertainment systems. Rocket 44 uses a carefully finessed combination of AudioQuest’s excellent Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) and the company’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. Further, Rocket 44 features AudioQuest’s effective Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation, and, as with all AudioQuest cables, the conductors in Rocket 44 are Direction-Controlled to minimize the damaging effects of radio-frequency noise. With its thoughtful, time-tested combination of high-quality materials and design elements, AudioQuest Rocket 44 is an outstanding choice for all types of music, movies, and listening environments.

QED marks its 50th anniversary with the Golden Anniversary XT, a special edition speaker cable designed for audiophiles seeking premium performance at a realistic price. Drawing on five decades of award-winning innovation and expertise, this cable delivers clarity and consistency across all frequencies. QED pioneered the high-end speaker cable category with products like the 79 Strand and the Genesis Report, which laid the groundwork for modern cable design. The Golden Anniversary XT incorporates this legacy with cutting-edge X-Tube™ Plus technology, blending X-Tube™ and Aircore™ technologies to minimize both skin and proximity effects, ensuring an even signal distribution. The hybrid conductor combines ultra-pure Ohno Continuous Cast Copper and 99.999% oxygen-free copper, enhancing signal retention and transient detail. Insulation is handled by low-density polyethylene for superior efficiency and low signal loss. With robust Airloc™ Forte banana plugs, the cable provides oxidation resistance and a secure physical connection. The result is a product engineered for reliability and exceptional sonic performance. Widely acclaimed by industry experts, it’s received top awards from What Hi-Fi?, The Ear, Hi-Fi Choice, and others.

AudioQuest's budget-friendly speaker cable Rocket 33 doesn't compromise audio excellence. With a unique blend of LGC and PSC Copper conductors in a new geometry it delivers a smooth open sound and impressive dynamic range.FeaturesSolid ConductorsPerfect Surface CopperCarbon Based Noise DissipationDouble Star-Quad GeometryFoamed Polyethylene InsulationDirection ControlledSolid Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) and Long-Grain Copper (LGC) ConductorsThis cable uses a carefully finessed combination of Long-Grain Copper (LGC) and extremely high-purity Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC). LGC has fewer oxides within the conducting material less impurities less grain boundaries and definitively better performance. The astonishingly smooth and pure PSC further eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity.Carbon-Based Noise DissipationThis cable's 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.Double Star-Quad GeometryThe relationship between conductors defines a cable's 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.Foamed Polyethylene InsulationAny solid material adjacent to a
