The AudioQuest Rocket 88 is a high-performance speaker cable featuring AudioQuest's patented Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) and solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors. DBS lowers the noise floor so you hear deeper into the nuances of your music, while PSC+ delivers a smoother, more relaxed, and natural sonic timbre and texture.
Key Features
- Solid PSC+ Conductors — Eliminates strand-to-strand electrical and magnetic interaction, a major source of distortion
- Perfect-Surface Technology — Astonishingly smooth conductor surface nearly eliminates harshness and greatly increases clarity
- Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) — Keeps the insulation in a continuously charged state, eliminating dielectric-involvement distortion (US Pat #s 7,126,055 & 7,872,195 B1)
- Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation System — Negative conductors covered with Carbon-Loaded Polyethylene to reduce RF garbage fed back into the amplifier
- Air-Filled Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation — High air content minimises energy absorption and out-of-focus effect common to other insulation materials
- RF Trap — Developed from AudioQuest's Niagara power product series; prevents RF noise induction into signal conductors from DBS field elements
- Carbon Layer Damping — Damps interaction between positive and negative conductors for improved dimensionality

Caring for your Speakers and Amplifiers
To Keep your equipment safe these are some best practices to note. Please be advised that this is only to reduce the risk of misuse and is not an exhaustive list.
Speakers
- Speaker terminals are marked red and black, ensure your amplifier to the speakers are wired on the same colours
- Ensure no loose speaker wire from the red touches a loose wire from the black as this will lead to a short circuit and damage either the speaker, the amplifier or both.
- Not all speakers are designed to play at max volume, kindly consider the pairing of your amplifier and speakers
- Speaker cabinets cannot be replaced please handle with care.
AV & Stereo Amplifiers
- If your amplifier has HDMI ports, ensure all devices are off before plugging in the HDMI cable
- Turn off the amplifier before swoping out or adding speaker cable
- Amplifiers generate heat, place them in a well ventilated space. if possible avoid having anything on top of the unit.
- adding a surge protector can assist with power dips which are likely to damage your devices. Isotek and Furman are industry standard.
- Dusty environments can sometimes lead to accumulation of dust in the electronic components that might affect heat regulation
