I was talking about that cable earlier, but without SQ info - just the mechanical properties then.

Now I'm done with my speaker cable comparisons so I can comment on sound qualities of this fakey fake.

Here it goes, enjoy!

    I bought my silver speaker cables instead of cheap copper and indeed im impressed how it made a positive difference in sound. Mine were around 60$ so now I understand that everything matters, what quality of material they use, what is inside, also my cable has around aluminium tape which is great as I checked them from the inside. I would call it the most important thing next to a DAC. But every system is so different, even house electricity and so on. I understand why there is so many ppl thinking so many things. If ppl think it's stupid to play with power cables, speaker cables, yes. The power is in everyone of us to make decision and make action, many ways to improve. Thanks for inspiration with your stuff.

    Oh, wow... I just took a chance on these and ordered a pair for my ancient AR58s. They sound veiled with ofc. Your videos are helpful and very interesting. Sub'd. I took note of your observation on the dbs. Why not just terminate correctly when assembing, right? Seems easy enough to do correctly to avoid an unnecessary, forced error in performance. Anyway, I enjoy your vids very much. Thank you for your investment and time.
  • I use my Ali Express Audioquest Comets without the banana plugs. I prefer the sound...

    Did you see this wrong SBS connections too with your Dragons? Is it necessary to check this if someone buy these too?

    Hi, so a friend of mine has what we believe are genuine CV-4, and the DBS system is connected to the Negative speaker lead as tested with a multi-meter.

    Hi ! Can you tell me your thoughts of this K2 vs Dragon zero you already tested ? Between rocket 88, k2 and dragon, which one would you recommend for the sound and price ? Thank you very much ! 🙂

    Audioquest cables ... 😂😂😂😂😂 the owners are laughing all the way to the bank .... making 10,000 % profits and more on each cable
  • @user-fh7cv7vm7j
    Thank you….I’m enjoying your reviews. I may have missed it, but do you prefer the fake k2 or fake Rocket 88? I’m tempted to take a chance on one of those.

    2'.57" : it happens v.... ...? You see or better hear?: pronunciation really matters and do take care for that. Compliments for all you work, I'll see them all and used your advice in the past on a spectacular cable. :-) And I'm after 700 hours of burning in very happy with them. 🙂 and I do agree with your experience also. ....So...: it is IMPORTANT to pronounce well and don't swallow your words! 😞 You destroy your own work sometimes with bad pronunciation and we have to guess what you ment. Friendly greetings and look forward to your total complete comparisons. 🙂

    Why do you make this review about these fake cables but not tell us where to buy on Ali? That makes no sense to me.
