The audioquest Rocket 44's conductor mix includes Perfect-Surface-Copper+. PSC+ has fewer grain boundaries, which reduces roughness in the sound. This carefully coordinated combination of LGC, PSC and PSC+ enables the Rocket 44 to produce clear and faithful reproduction.

SOLID LONG GRAIN COPPER/PERFECT SURFACE COPPER/PERFECT SURFACE COPPER+ CONDUCTORS (LGC/PSC/PSC+)

The audioquest Rocket 44 uses a carefully coordinated combination of long-crystalline copper, perfect surface copper and extremely high-purity perfect surface copper+. LGC has fewer oxides in the conductive material, fewer impurities, fewer grain boundaries and therefore offers significantly better reproduction.

The amazingly smooth and pure PSC also eliminates roughness and significantly increases clarity. The PSC+ takes up the largest share of the Rocket 44's conductor mix.

CARBON-BASED NOISE DISSIPATION (INSULATION)

The four negative conductors in the Rocket 44 are insulated with partially conductive carbon-containing polyethylene. This remarkable material attenuates high-frequency interference so that it is not fed back into the amplifier. This provides the same sonic benefit as reducing fluctuations and improving spatiality as reducing RF waste in an audio circuit.

The Rocket 44 uses polyethylene foam insulation on the positive conductors because air absorbs almost no energy and polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile. Thanks to the air in the PE foam, there are significantly fewer blurring effects than with other materials.

DOUBLE STAR QUAD GEOMETRY

The relationship between the individual conductors defines the basic electrical properties of a cable (capacitance and inductance). However, even if these variables are kept in a sensible balance, the relationship between the conductors can vary in such a way that the sound is greatly affected. The Rocket 44's double-star quad design allows for significantly better dynamics and information clarity than when the same ladder is run in parallel.

SPREAD SPECTRUM TECHNOLOGY (SST)

Each individual conductor and each conductor bundle has its own specific distortion profile. Although radially symmetrical conductors (solid or tubular) have the least amount of unevenness, any conductor of a given size leaves a sonic footprint. SST is a method to significantly reduce these characteristic weaknesses by using a precisely determined combination of conductors of different sizes.

The different conductor sizes used in the Rocket 44, determined using SST, enable the exceptionally clear, pure and dynamic sound.

BI-WIRING

The Rocket 44 is an exceptional single bi-wiring cable. When the halves are separated at the speaker end, the double star quad geometry transforms the Rocket 44 into a true double bi-wiring set thanks to the magnetic independence of the individual quad conductor sections. A single Star Quad leader group, taken on its own, would be a bit lightweight in its performance, as it is very upper voice heavy.

The other Star Quad Ladder group is bass heavy; their sound is more powerful and less focused on ultimate resolution. Both together create the optimal full-range structure. When the cable ends are used separately, the speaker cable becomes a double-bi-wiring cable with maximum performance thanks to the double-star quad structure.

CONSTRUCTION

AudioQuest offers a wide range of high-quality connectors with which the audioquest Rocket 44 can be connected to any type of hi-fi equipment. When it comes to quality, the focus is more on low-distortion sound than on eye candy. The gold and silver on these AQ connectors have a “boring” dull look because the metals are applied directly to the connector.

There is no shiny-looking but rough-sounding layer of nickel underneath. AQ-PK cable lugs are also relatively soft, as higher quality metals are soft, which is beneficial for the quality of the connection. For devices that require banana or BFA plugs, the AQ-PK BFA/banana plugs offer unprecedented high-quality reproduction compared to conventional brass versions.

USE

The PVC “pants” on the ends are marked “Speaker End” or “Amp End”. Please use the cables in the appropriate direction.
