AudioQuest Rocket 33 Bi-Wire is an award-winning speaker cable that boasts an unrivaled combination of performance and value. Appropriate for biwirable speaker systems and terminated with high-quality silver-plated banana plugs, AudioQuest Rocket 33 Bi-Wire is a versatile high-performance speaker cable resolving enough for high-end audio systems, durable enough for studio use, and practical enough for most home entertainment systems. Rocket 33 uses a carefully finessed combination of AudioQuest’s Solid Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) and Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors in a Double Star-Quad configuration designed to reduce distortion for cleaner, clearer, more naturally detailed sound. Further, Rocket 33 features AudioQuest’s effective Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation, and, as with all AudioQuest cables, the conductors in Rocket 33 are Direction-Controlled to minimize the damaging effects of radio-frequency noise. Whenever possible, running separate cables to the treble and bass portions of a biwireable loudspeaker significantly reduces distortion. For these applications, an AudioQuest cable like Rocket 33 Bi-Wire keeps the large magnetic fields associated with bass energy out of the treble cable, allowing the delicate upper frequencies to travel a less disturbed path, like taking the waves out of the water when you swim. The result is smoother, clearer, more natural sound. With its thoughtful, time-tested combination of high-quality materials and design elements, AudioQuest Rocket 33 is an outstanding choice for all types of music, movies, and listening environments.

This was recommended by the Magnolia representative at Best Buy. I utilize it for a second room as well as outside by the pool. It does the job.

For Music Lovers

I previously was utilizing a Pioneer Elite receiver. In the Magnolia sound room at Best Buy, I compared the sound of the music to the latest Pioneer Elite and found this to be more to my liking. A pleasant surprise is how good movies sound on this receiver. I would consider this state of the art and this receiver readily supports the B & W CM- 10's that I purchased with this.

Come Sail Away

This is a very well produced Blu-Ray. I had seen this show in Tucson just a couple of months ago and this disc certainly captures the look and sound. Dennis DeYoung sounds great and the video is of very high quality. Put the home theatre to the test if you are a STYX fan. The Grand Illusion was one of the best albums of the late 70's.

Beautiful Look & Sound
on December 28, 2015
Posted by: Desertfan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am not aware of any other speaker that looks as good as the CM-10. I had been shopping for months and I was ready to buy the CM-9. I walked into Best Buy and saw this speaker and heard this speaker and I knew that this was what I was looking for. Watched Gravity the other evening and it sounded outstanding. I am a big music buff (all genres) and the sound from the CM-10 is just so clear. A great test for any speaker is to test the lower volume as well as the upper volume. This speaker passes the test with flying colors. If you can afford this luxury, I would highly recommend it.

Like Being There

I had seen this show twice live and I had been anxiously awaiting the release of the video. It was well worth the wait as this show looks and sounds terrific on a home theater system. I would go so far as to say that with the proper home theatre system, this was as good as being at the show live. The second half of the show sounds just amazing.

This Sony BDPS6500 Blu-ray player features built-in Wi-Fi. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.

Worth The Wait
on December 28, 2015
Posted by: Desertfan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had shopped for more than one year for a television upgrade and this model makes it all worthwhile. The picture quality on HD video is absolutely amazing due to the upscaling by Sony. The biggest surprise was the sound on this television. I have also upgraded by home theatre system, but the sound on this tv is more than adequate for normal viewing. At this point, after a couple of weeks, I am very satisfied with the purchase.
