For all those people who have "1 note bass" cabinets out there-here is a solution.
Who'd a thunk it?
The Type 1 cable from AudioQuest certainly doesn't look like a typical speaker cable. In fact, at first glance, it looks more like an HDMI cable than speaker wire. But, this design makes it a better cable in actuality. Here's how: in a typical cable, multiple strands are coiled together to carry the signal. This causes interaction electrically and mechanically, causing irritation and one-note bass boom. In the Type 1 cables, solid conductors eliminate the harshness and confusion of strand interaction. Reason 2: typical speaker cables use "oxygen-free"copper, which is oxygen-reduced, but not selected for low distortion. Audioquest Type 1 uses long-grain copper, which has fewer impurities, fewer grain junctions, and lower distortion. Finally, in a standard cable, high-inductance geometry smears sound, reducing information transmitted, while in Type 1 cables, low-inductance geometry preserves time information to preserve dynamics and clarity. And as an added bonus, Spread Spectrum Technology uses multiple conductor sizes to greatly reduce the awareness of individual conductor character flaws. This all combines to form one great-sounding speaker cable.

Any audiophile using AudioQuest Type 1 cables would also receive an additional 2.03233 times more sonic nirvana by installing the Wattgate 381 Audio Grade Duplex Socket, at only $147.72 ea.
To borrow an Elemental Voice description... this cable/power socket combo will provide a sonic improvement that you can only imagine!
Be careful, though! After installing the Wattgate 381s, all that newly pure, pristine current exploded the home theater of one B. Prescott in CT.
