What do you think about Audioquest Volcano?

lol!!! Thanks for your refreshing post -cfb

I switched from Audioquest Clear to Volcano a year ago. I have never been a fan of silver speaker wire or interconnects except on video. I find them to bright for audio. I'm using the Volcano in a double biwire setup. The Volcano retained the smooth sound of the Clear with an increase in attack, soundstage and midrange focus. The Volcano also has a very tight and detailed bass, you can hear the fingers on the bass string not just the bass. Keep in mine there is a break in period, it will take some time for the bass to come alive and the mid to mellow. I have listened to numerous wires and this was my favorite. My system consists of Vandersteen fives and Audio Research SP10 preamp VT100 MKII power amp CD1T transport and DAC III MKII DA converter. Also an Oracle Delphi MK V table with a Graham 2.2 tonearm and a Van del hal Frog cartridge.

I think it's very good. probably not the weak link in most peoples systems. It's very similar in sound/performance to that of somehting like the Harmonic cables Pro cables or Acoustic Zen Satori shotgun. It's detailed, clear, and dynamic enough, to get out of the way of the system! You'll like it on just about anything you attach it to, I'm sure. Good Luck

I totally agree with Topanga's assessment. I have been running two pairs in my system and they kick butt! I'm not sure what Comefedboy or Dismalonyx's problems are with these speaker cables. Perhaps they could elaborate more on their likes and dislikes of these cables so that we all may become enlightened. Yoby

The thing is that I dont even own those cable, neither that I've heard them, and Cornfedboy was just making a joke with the name of the cable(at last I think) for my par I think those will be my next cable in my system.
