The AudioQuest Rocket 88 Single-BiWire Speaker Cable is the pinnacle of the Rocket lineup when you need bi-wiring capabilities. It uses ultra-pure Solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) conductors arranged in Double Star-Quad geometry to ensure minimal distortion. The 72-volt Dielectric-Bias System (DBS), carbon-based noise-dissipation, and direction-controlled conductors combine to deliver a cleaner, clearer signal path. Premium SureGrip 500 connectors, choice of banana or multi-spade terminations, and a striking green-on-black braided jacket complete the package. Available in multiple lengths to suit room and system demands.
Conductor Purity & Signal Transparency
Rocket 88’s PSC+ conductors are solid, not stranded, which reduces distortion caused by strand interaction. The Perfect-Surface finish reduces microscopic irregularities, so more of your music’s detail comes through without harshness or tonal coloration. When bi-wiring, you have separate paths for bass and treble, which helps preserve tonal separation and clarity in crossover regions.
Geometry & Noise Handling for Improved Dynamics
With Double Star-Quad geometry, conductors are grouped and aligned to reduce time-smearing and the inter-conductor distortion that can degrade imaging. The cable uses carbon-loaded materials on the negative conductors to dissipate radio-frequency and electromagnetic interference, along with directionality marking to control noise flow. These elements result in a quieter background and more dynamic contrast.
Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) for Cleaner Backgrounds
AudioQuest’s patented 72 V DBS polarizes the insulation materials to reduce dielectric absorption and release distortions—these are subtle disturbances that can muddy the sound. Paired with high‐air content foamed-polyethylene insulation, particularly around the positive conductors, the result is lower distortion and a more transparent audio landscape. Listeners often report that details in quiet passages, reverb tails, and instrument decay are more noticeable with this cable.
