Ruby was Audioquest INTERCONNECT, not speaker cable. AQ always had different names/models for ICs and speaker cables. I think what you have are either Type 2 or Type 4. I sold these on a bulk roll when I had my store. There were $2.00 per foot, if I recall correctly.
Help me identify my Audioquest Speaker Cables
I received these on a trade. Picture in my "Getting Started" Systems post.
Audioquest rep says they are AQ Red from several years ago and sold for $500/pr. Supposed to have "Surface Only" conductors, a plastic center section wrapped by multi-stranded wires. A high end product from back in the day.
Friend in the biz says no way, Audioquest Ruby, sold for maybe $100/pr at best.
Trying to figure out whether to use them or sell them to fund a set of decent interconnects.
My system is in pieces at the moment, so no listening tests.
Can anyone here shed some light on these fat red cables?
