Reviews for AudioQuest Rocket 11 Speaker Cable - Custom Length

Met my expectation, and it's easy to bend the cable around. It's well labelled and marked, which makes it easy to use. The cable is well built, and the sound is clear and detailed.

Running a 1972 B&O pair of 5700s and swapped out my old cables for these meaty straps.

My windows are holding on for dear life, and my neighbours are hating it.

Bare cable on both ends and burned in, came ready to go straight out the box, 5 minutes of adaptor switching later, and I was up and running.

I can't recommend it enough.

The product was received very fast!

Upfront making a connection and found that there is an all-around improvement. I will listen and enjoy the product carefully before some more feedback shortly!

Having ordered and received the AudioQuest Rocket 11 cable, I found I had a problem with my own making.

I returned the cable to Futureshop after a phone call to the Tech desk. The problem was resolved, and I received the cable back within a week of ordering. I fitted it into the system, and the difference in sound was startling, especially in the base department.

I have to say Futureshop was one of the best online retailers I have ever dealt with. Service from all was top-notch, especially Hezron Duhaney.

Thanks, guys. Jim

I had to replace my Silver Anniversary cables as they were too short. I was pleasantly surprised to find the sound stage was still lovely and open using the Rocket 11. It is a high-quality cable and has good value for money. I rang and discussed my options with the sales staff at Futureshop, and they were very helpful and offered sound advice.

The cables were delivered the next day, which I was pleased about. One concern I had was if the cable could be bent easily. For its size, it's remarkably flexible. So in one plane, it will bend tightly, say 10mm radius. In the other stiffer direction, you can comfortably bend it through a slow curve of around a 150mm radius. I placed my cable under my carpet, and its thickness is around that of the underlay. Since I will not be walking near it, it is fine and not noticeable.

So thanks, Futureshop, you have my vote :)

A recommended cable with a very budget price. The product is superb, but the service was stunning.

To get cable delivered to New Zealand at a quarter of the local price in such a short timeframe. Outstanding.

I am already using a pair of Rocket 11 and just needed some more to replace the metal plates at the back of my speakers.

Fantastic service and fast shipping from FutureShop as always!!!

I bought Rocket 11 cable to replace my QED XT40 cable (original type), which I found an upgrade over a thick copper generic cable at the time. I was not expecting the huge improvements to the system that this new cable has brought to my system. After installing the cable, I found its performance was a bit underwhelming & almost disappointing (I did not request the burn-in).

After approximately 20 hours of use, I experience: -

Much improved clarity & more detail revealed soundstage & Image are both broader and deeper. Bass is now great, and the treble is much improved with higher frequencies. I also hear the room's acoustics and any echo that could not be detected before.

My core system is Rega Planar3 (1988) /Rega Exact cartridge / Rega mm phono / Marantz PM6006 UK Amplifier / Q Acoustics 3020 speakers. Also, Marantz CD6006 UK. When playing my CDs, I hear much the same improvements but ….. The somewhat disappointing sound before the cable upgrade now has got the same benefits as above.

I have purchased from Futureshop several times before and have always found their service helpful in advice & delivery has always been very fast. I will continue to use them when needed.

Thanks

Ran in some new Dali Oberon 5's out of a NAD C370 amp on a quality QED cable for 100 hours. I started to worry - Midrange great, Tweeter way too forward, Lower Bass missing. I had already ordered the AudioQuest Rocket 11 Speaker Cable. I hooked it up on arrival (burnt in), and - instant Karma!

My ears stopped fighting the speakers and found the music - all the frequencies nicely balanced, the Bass back, and most noticeably, the sound staging moved from linear to three-dimensional - REAL DEPTH.

Playing a reference CD of Sade, I would have proposed marriage if she had ACTUALLY been in the room!

For me, this cable punches well above its weight.

After years of listening to my “old” Krell amp driving a pair of Thiel 3.6 I thought I needed to upgrade my amp. I noticed a little lack of “punch”, a bit too smooth.

I decided to get a pair of ps m700, and for that, I thought it was a good idea to update speaker cables as well. I got the Audio Quest Rocket 11 before the amps, and burned for 49 hrs. I could not believe the positive effect in the quality of sound, to the point of making me wonder if only the cables would be needed to make the trick. I am serious, huge improvement.

Regarding Futures Shop service, only one word. Excellent. It is a shame I would not try their return policy, at this point it is more likely I will return my unheard new amps!
