What AudioQuest say

Winner of What Hi-Fi's Best Speaker Cable 2018, 2019 & 2020, AudioQuest's Rocket 11 is an excellent speaker cable for the money. By utilising technology used in the construction of both the FLX/SLiP and Rocket 33, the Rocket 11 speaker cable is a best of both worlds speaker cable, offering ground-breaking performance and flexibility at an affordable price. When complemented with AudioQuest's SureGrip 100 or 300 Silver plugs, Rocket 11 can outperform rival speaker cables by a landslide.

The AudioQuest Rocket series is one of the most successful AudioQuest speaker cables due to its excellent design and construction. The Rocket series is an ideal speaker cable for entry to mid-level range Hi-Fi and AV systems. This latest cable in the Rocket series, is constructed from a mix of the award-winning AudioQuest FLX/SLiP 14/4 and AudioQuest Rocket 33 speaker cables.

The Rocket 11 speaker cable utilises both stranded and solid 'Long-Grain Copper' semi-solid true-concentric conductors, a first for AudioQuest.  The combination of 'Long-Grain Copper' and true-concentric conductors ensures the Rocket 11 delivers a more balanced, dynamic and cleaner sound. Rocket 11 is available as both single wire and bi-wire configuration.

"True-Concentric" is an industry-standard term for when each layer of strands in a concentric conductor is spiralled in the opposite direction from the layer below, eliminating the lines of contact between the layers, and increasing contact pressure at the points of contact. The downside is much more machine time and higher cost – the upside is a better sound you can hear. True-Concentric construction significantly furthers the beneficial effect of the skin-effect by dramatically increasing layer autonomy.

Termination

This cable is professional terminated by Audiohobby using one of the following plug options:

  • SureGrip 100 Gold-plated Banana or Spade
  • SureGrip 100 Silver-plated Banana or Spade
  • SureGrip 300 Gold-plated Banana or Spade
  • SureGrip 300 Silver-plated Banana or Spade

Both the SureGrip 100 and SureGrip 300 Banana plugs utlisise the stronger and more conductive Beryllium Copper as a base metal, offering higher tensile strength and superior sound to phosphor bronze found on many banana plugs. The SureGrip 100 and SureGrip 300 Spade plugs utilise higher purity Purple Copper which provides cleaner and clearer sound when compared to standard copper or brass used in other "premium" connectors.

The differences between the SureGrip 100s and SureGrip 300s can be found in the amount on metal used in the construction of the plug. The SureGrip 300 uses substantially more metal in the connector compared to the SureGrip 100 resulting in a superior connection between the conductors, the connector and your system.

The coppers of the connector, just as in the speaker cable itself can lend to the cable sounding more detailed, wider soundstage, lowering of the noise floor and protection of the raw conductors. These benefits increase step by step as you progress higher up the series from the Suregrip 100 Beryllium Copper plugs to the Series 1000 Red Copper banana plugs. The plating process also changes as you move up the series, resulting in a thicker and more durable plating.

About AudioQuest

AudioQuest has been the largest cable supplier to the high-end specialist market for many years. AudioQuest is sold in several hundred outlets in the US and in over sixty countries. Bill Lowe (Founder) is especially pleased that this success has been possible despite his insistence that the foundation of the company, and the foundation of AudioQuest marketing, must be the performance of the product. In the audio world, many professionals have learned that it is not always convenient to listen to the products they sell … they might learn something they don’t want to know! Bill has always understood the challenge of basing the existence of AudioQuest on the performance of the product. However, to Bill, this is the only reasonable way to do business and the only acceptable way to combine his passion for music (and all things high performance), with his need to make a living.
