New open box item - never been used! Full range - not bi-wire. 8.2 foot pair of speaker cables with factory-terminated silver-plated BFA banana plugs. Includes two 72v DBS units (one for each cable).
NO BOX IS INCLUDED, cables are sealed in protective foil packaging. A box won't make these cables (or any cables) sound any better! If a box is super-important to you (like it was to one guy who contacted me), you can buy a factory-sealed box for about $1550. https://upscaleaudio.com/products/audioquest-rocket-88-speaker-cable?variant=28073522000

AudioQuest Rocket 88 Speaker Cables. Rocket 88 incorporates AudioQuest's patented Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) and replaces Long-Grain Copper with solid Perfect-Surface Copper+. DBS offers a lower noise-floor, so you can hear deeper into the nuances of your favorite music.
Eight solid copper conductors per cable, each made of a combination of Perfect-Surface Copper and Perfect-Surface Copper+
Battery-powered active Dielectric-Bias System maintains a constant 72V charge for more consistent cable performance (batteries included)
One of the most important ingredients in a high-quality cable is the metal used for the signal conductors. Rocket 88 uses a carefully optimized combination of AudioQuest's Perfect-Surface Copper and their even-higher-purity Perfect-Surface Copper+. The metal mix is dominated by PSC+, which significantly reduces harshness while increasing clarity. Each of the cable's eight solid conductors is a single unbroken length of pure copper, to minimize signal loss.
AudioQuest's active Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) creates a strong, stable electrostatic field which saturates and polarizes the molecules of the insulation. A small battery pack attached to the cable produces a constant 72-volt charge, which maintains optimum bias level, giving you clear, expressive sound from your system every time you turn it on. The DBS battery packs will last for years. A test button and LED allow for the occasional battery check.
High-quality connectors eliminate the weakest link
Rocket 88 cables feature banana plugs fastened by cold welding — a process that uses extremely high pressure to create solid secure connections that minimize signal loss. By contrast, solder tends to impede the signal, and heating the copper can negatively affect its conductivity.
