Hello all,

I just purchased two pairs of Audioquest King Cobra interconnects and put them on my system. I have spent a lot of time reading about cables on this forum and run a demo or two on the cable swap program. I really think it comes down to your system and your ears. All I can say is that as soon as I replaced my Monster Cables with the AQ's, I immediately noticed a huge difference. All I can say is wow! The detail is so far superior to the Monster cable and the soundstage is really in your face. I put on my copy of the Flaming Lips DVD-A "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots" and felt like I was listening to it for the first time. I really wasn't expecting such a difference, but for me, the answer is clear. I'm an AQ fan all the way. It is the best upgrade to my system since I replaced my old Harmon Kardon reciever with my NAD T763. 5 stars!!!!!

    I became an AQ fan after I purchased their bi-wire bedrock speaker cables. I got them to replace some monster wire and like you, "wow" what a difference. I just recently picked up a pair of the AQ Jaguars and have them installed between my cd player and preamp. I replaced Tara Labs interconnects with them and I got a much cleaner detailed sound. I was going to get the King Cobra's but found a deal on the Jaguar w/ DBS and decided to give them a try. Enjoy.

    Confirmed! I went from some Copperheads to the Diamondbacks and just that jump alone made a big difference for me.

    Nice to hear. I too noticed a difference when I purchase the IC's from Signal Cable. It would be nice to do a comparison between these two.
