AQ Experts,


which model(s) replaced the Volcano speaker cables?

128x128jafant
Yes, I like it as well- zephyr.

I wanted to learn about a better AQ speaker cable than the Volcano
(if it exists).
I now have AQ Wildwood and yes they are even better than Oak.  Not cheap though!
Jafant, I looked around and tried a few other speaker cables from other brands. Some gives you an illusion of super-extended soundstage, but you get less resolution/details and/or a unpleasant frequency balanced sound.

At AQ Volcano price range, it is very challenging to find an alternative.Unless you are willing to pay 2-3 times more andyou might get some improvement as 10% or so. I use AQ Meteor on my first setup and AQ volcano on second system. AQ Meteor is 2 times more expensive and its improvement (specially on HF extensions) compared to AQ Volcano is like <10%.

cheers.
