Seems like the Beez Neez of cable? Apparently the entry level Thunderbird already surpass the existing WEL signature at 1/8 of its price? (According to the AQ rep in the demo video). Hi ck, I have the new Mythical creatures speaker cables: Audioquest FireBird Mythical Creatures 72V DBS speaker cables in bi-wire configuration (FireBird ZERO and FireBird BASS) which replaced my AQ Everest speaker cables. Just like AQ's new power cables these new speaker cables are incredible and made me hear even MORE - not at the expense of musicality. Very highly recommended.

But good to hear positive things on the Mythical creature cables and how it compared with previous flagship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Thunderbird Zero is my likely candidate if I go down the path of AQ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Marc Posted October 10, 2019 Administrator Share Posted October 10, 2019 Some posts hidden debating cable differences. This is not the thread for that.

betty boop Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 still running after some 30 years ? the very nice audioquest quartz interconnect in my 2nd system ... still great cables and seem to have stood test of time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberkank Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Had an opportunity to try out the AQ William tell speaker cables at home. It is indeed very good. I did A/B comparison with my current cable and the AQ is more preferable in my system. The saxaphone and piano sounded much more smooth and body on the notes more apparent.Will be interesting to go up to the Thunderbird level. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is extrmely good speaker cables and gas quite a following within the stereonet community. But no doubt in my system the AQ was superior. I think the difference would be even greater with a larger room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Went from Audioquest Gibraltar to Aspen, what a difference. In a naim setup it’s just pure magic. Neo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Aspen is a generation before the ones you describing, although it has got the new DBS black packs. I have some spare DBS carbon and thought I swap over, but didn’t like the presentation with the carbon so went back to black. Neo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
