AudioQuest - Type 9 - Pre-Terminated Speaker Cable

Immerse yourself in the sound of pure sonic clarity with the AudioQuest - Type 9 - Pre-Terminated Speaker Cable. With unrivaled pedigree dating back to the original release of the iconic model Type 4 in 1983, AudioQuest has consistently raised the bar in speaker cable technology. Fast-forward to the present and the perfection personified Type 9 cable displays the harmonious balance of our famed Type 4 design, now enhanced with noise-dissipation layers for the ultimate acoustic sensation.

  • Larger conductors add depth to the soundstage while reducing interaction between neighboring elements by a staggering 35%, delivering every note with precision, intensity, and passion.
  • Every strand of our high-purity solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) has been meticulously shaped, removing all imperfections to deliver sound so stunningly smooth and profound; it will redefine your auditory experience.
  • By preventing strand interaction we've diminished that ear-grating transient intermodulation distortion, traditionally a thorn in the side of music lovers.
  • Our breakthrough multi-layer carbon-based Noise-Dissipation and Star-Quad Geometry work in perfect concert to pace every charge, capture every beat, and push the boundaries of clarity.
  • Sold exclusively as a full range pair with steadfast banana terminations, the AudioQuest - Type 9 - Pre-Terminated Speaker Cable is a trailblazing step into a new era of acoustic performance.

Features:

  1. High Purity Conductors - Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+): The usage of solid PSC+ conductors not only prevents strand interaction but also guarantees the removal of ear fatiguing transient intermodulation distortion. With its pure surface, it eliminates harshness, enhances clarity, and minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries in comparison to OFHC, OCC, 8N, and other premium coppers.
  2. Solid Conductors: This feature prevents complications and confusion caused due to strand-interaction. The solid conductors are a larger size than previous 4-series cables, reducing interaction between adjacent conductors by 35%.
  3. Multi-layer Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation: The multi-layer carbon-based noise dissipation system effectively reduces the noise-floor and lowers potential amplifier Transient-Intermodulation Distortion (TIM).
  4. Star-Quad Geometry: The balanced Star-Quad geometry reduces time-smearing, thus retaining the dynamics and clarity of sound transmission.
  5. Sold as Full Range Pair with Banana Terminations Only: The cable is exclusively available as a full range pair with robust banana terminations, increasing its compatibility with different speaker setups.

Benefits:

  1. Unparalleled Clarity: The utilization of Solid PSC+ conductors yields a sound quality that is exceptionally smooth and clear, transcending the performance of other premium coppers.
  2. Reduced Distortion: The advanced multi-layer carbon-based noise-dissipation system immensely lowers the risk of Transient-Intermodulation Distortion (TIM), resulting in a flawless auditory experience.
  3. Enhanced Sound Quality: The cable's refined Star-Quad Geometry enhances the overall sonic output, ensuring a dynamic preservation of sound that offers remarkable clarity.
  4. Compatibility: Sell exclusively as a full range pair with banana terminations, increases the cable's compatibility with a large variety of speaker setups.
  5. Decreased Interference: Larger conductors and added layers of Noise-Dissipation effectively diminish interaction between adjacent conductors by 35%, significantly reducing interference and thus enhancing the listening experience.

The clarity that the new stylus produces is phantastic. It's like having the orchestra in ones living room. Even older LPs reveal a lot of details. I prefer MM Styli and Ortofon landed a winner with this one.

This has really elevated my listening experience as the playback is flawless every time. The integration through the app though is where this streamer excels. The app is lightning fast. The sound can be a tad bright with certain types of music however with the countless amount of EQ settings that can be adjusted and saved (differently) for each and every input provides the ability to get my right sound each and every time. paired with the Advance Paris A10 amplifier its perfect!

The Black Pearl Power Cable is a pretty substantial piece of kit, superbly constructed - it beats the usual black kettle lead hands down on looks and construction. It is however, fairly stiff so you need to allow it to hang in graceful arcs - no sharp bends. Being heavy it also needs a little support so it doesn’t drag on sockets at either end of the cable. Has it made a difference in the sound? Well, I have made so many changes all at once that I cannot definitively say if it has or not, but I am pretty sure that those electrons are having a whale of a time running along the conductors in the cable, and this hobby is all about joy!

The Cinema 30 is the direct replacement for the SR8015, but it is chalk n cheese in terms of sound & build quality! The 120fps issue switching between the PS5 & XBox Series X is gone via the VS3003 8K switcher to the one 8K HDMI input - all HDMI inputs are 8K@ 60kHz or 4K 120kHz/fps! I bit the bullet and shelled out for the Bass Management & Control add-ons to DIRAC product @ $AUD951.54 and the results are astounding compared to the Audyssey room correction of the SR-8015. Currently using a 7.2.4 setup as it's not possible to do 7.4.6 yet. The Cinema 30 is a GREAT looking and sounding piece of hardware, handles DSD128 multichannel tracks via HDMI from the Reavon UBR-X200 effortlessly & DSD64 multichannel from the Eversolo DMP-A6 Masters edition also via HDMI. I wasn't expecting DSD128 to work but VERY happy that it does. I do miss the analogue multi-channel input that the SR-8015 & my older Yamaha units have, so that the DAC on the Reavon can do the conversion & output in analog. I am unable to compare via a shootout between the two units to determine if there are any audible differences to me. Well worth the cost of the upgrade❣️❣️ Many thanks to Vaughan for his quality, no-nonsense expert advice, throughout the long fault analysis & attempts to rectify of the 8015 by the authorized repairer and organizing the replacement unit. I purchased the SR-8015 elsewhere before I knew about the team @ The Audio Tailor & have never looked back.
