What's great about it: not to much great about this speaker wire
What's not so great: Price!!!!
I bought this speaker wire, thinking they would be better than my monster xp. They were about the same if not worse, dont spend your money on this, not worth it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Very high quaility build very easy to install.
What's not so great: Nothing.
I really don't know why I waited so long to upgrade my speaker wires, after installing the Audioquest X-2 speaker cables I was rewarded with a clean distortion free and extreamly rich sound not yet experienced with my home theater system. The decision was easy enough to make when I realized that even though I had spent top dollar on speakers and a reciever but then inturn conected those devices with .02 cents a yard cables how could I posibley achieve any kind of true sound reproduction (the saying is very true the chain is only as strong as the weakest link). I was unsure if I would experience a difference in sound reproduction but was plesantly suprized, all my conections are currently being upgraded to Audioquest. All I can say is thank you Audioquest!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: slightly better than Monster XP
What's not so great: PRICE, minimal improvement in sound, hard to strip wires
After upgrading all 7 speakers in living room to Def Tech, which was a great improvement over old Polks, I didn't want to leave any weak links -- mostly concerned with the long wiring runs to the surrounds (~30 ft each) -- so decided to bite the bullet and finish it off right by completely rewiring with higher-end cable, up from current Monster XP -- spent all day Saturday going up and down stairs to tear out the old and run the new (ranch house, went thru floors and walls), wrestled with stripping the wire, switching banana plugs, etc -- expected a reasonable difference for $400 worth of wire -- but in the end just noticed a slightly improved tightness from fronts and center, did absolutely nothing for the surrounds -- disappointed, wasted a lot of time and money -- if anything, would now give Monster XP a higher rating than I would have before...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Excellent for high end speakers
What's not so great: It's all good
I've always used Monster Cable for all of my wiring. Recently I rewired my whole system and, on the recommendation of the salesman, I used AudioQuest X-2 cable. He told me that I would notice a difference in the quality of the sound from my speakers and he was absolutely right. Although not inexpensive, it's definitely a great value at this price. Kudos to the salesman who stepped out of the box and made a recommendation about this superior cabling over Monster.
I would recommend this to a friend!
