Reviews for AudioQuest Rocket 11 Speaker Cable - Custom Length

Professional help over the phone and very good product sent over.

Very impressed with the cables; they look good and obviously sound good. I can't fault the service from Futureshop, ordered 2x5m on a Monday, changed my mind to 2x6m the next day, order arrived on the following Friday.

Good quality, although the cable shield is marked as 17AWG and they are heavy & quite thick, they're easy and versatile for laying. I connected them between Yamaha A4A & Polk R100 and S35, and the result is excellent sound quality.

I am satisfied with these cables.

Summary says it all really, these cables are fantastic, with decent amp and speakers, you'd really struggle to find better than this. Also, service from this company is 1st class.

Thanks, guys; really happy

Very happy with Rocket 11 and Futureshop. No issues

I thought the cables couldn't possibly be as good as the other reviews said they were. They are.

Sampling some of my early Joni Mitchell, I was blown away by the clarity and precision of the acoustic guitars and, mainly, the vocals (and I had pretty good cables before) the Rocket connects added. I'd just purchased the remastered Beatles albums (Revolver to Let It Be) and found a whole fresh level of enjoyment of the music as every nuance of the original masters was presented (I had bought QA 3010s - which I can't praise too highly), so I think I have a winning budget price combo.

Get these cables - you won't be disappointed.

I soldered to gold plated copper banana plugs and put heat shrink tubing over the solders for a nice neat and maintenance-free connection (used a high powered soldering iron, about 350 Deg I think it was that worked best.
I'm sure the optional supplied plugs are fine too.

My last system was very bright, so I had tamed it with cheap OFC cable from a DIY shop barely larger than bell wire. This was just right for that system, but on upgrading to a Sugden, the sound was incredibly dull; time to get proper cable again. These cables bring out every detail and such a wide sound stage. Clean large scale from top to bottom. So unbelievably different and better.

These would have been good with my old system too. Previously and recently with my Sugden, I have used QED classic cables and never liked them. Hard, brittle sound though full scale. The Rocket 11's are just so much better right from the start and seem to be getting better the more I listen.

I can now hear micro dynamics in the vocals and how instruments are played much more. I can listen to the production of the song. GREAT.

I have a system with a book price of £6000k. I upgraded my 20-year-old cables for these (£100). The result is simply astounding. I cannot recommend it enough.

I purchased a role of generic AWG 12 speaker cable role and was somewhat underwhelmed.

Read a million reviews and settled on Rocket 11 as the optimal compromise with the 96-hour burn-in requested. It arrived the next day, which was fantastic. Was it pre burnt in? Possibly, I have no way of knowing. Anyway, the difference is night and day. So well chuffed. If you’re wondering, do it!

I was impressed with the build quality and the physical heft of these cables. The sound is slightly brighter, which is exactly what my system needed.

International shipping to the US west coast was much faster than I expected.
