AQ Rocket 88 DBS or no DBS?

Greetings everyone,
A few audio dealers have recommended that I consider Audioquest Rocket 88 speaker cable (biwire). I found a website that is selling a non-DBS model of Rocket 88 for quite a bit less that the DBS version.

Any forum folks familiar with the DBS technology and/or Audioquest? How important is the DBS?

Thanks..

This is an old thread, but I want to ask that question again for anyone having the Audioquest Rocket 88s with and without DBS. Audio Advisor sells them without the DBS and want to know if it really is worth the extra to have the DBS.

If it makes a sonic difference to the point where music reproduction is improved, then DBS is worth it.

I use the Rocket 88 for high level input on my sub from the speakers woofer input and the DBS makes a substantial change in the articulation and clarity. I might also add that I prefer the old 72vdc battery packs vs the new ones with the RF trap. Of course YMMV...
