Audioquest vs. Others


   I realize that this post will probably open a landslide of responses but my question is focused on the comparison of Audioquest vs other manufacturers. This is not aimed to address power cables or speaker wire but only interconnect cables. Like Audioquest, many brands offer cables in a range of prices....low, medium, high, and super high. My interest is not to compare a lower price/quality cable to one that is far superior but to ask if comparisons have been done within equal price ranges of different brands.

   Yes, some systems are capable of distinguishing minute changes in a cable makeup. Some manufacturers even offer a free trial and return policy. I know that. But, in a moderately priced system, are there any opinions that would deter one from using the Audioquest brand vs another brand? Remember....staying in a comparable price range.

I have used AQ cables in the past and they never impressed me. For a long time my reference cables were home made with solid sterling silver wire, teflon dielectric and Neutril terminations. These were in use for quite a long time until I recently tried a Morrow cable. They BLEW ME AWAY!!!! I have bought several of these over the past few months and they are amazing at a very very reasonable price. In fairness, I have never tried the top of the line AQ cables because they are totally out of my financial capacity, so they could definitely be better...
