AudioQuest Big Sur
Reviewed on www.crutchfield.com·Drew
So I had some older Audioquest G-Snakes, decent cables had them running from my Oppo BDP-105D to my Yamaha Aventage Receiver, decided to get a set of Golden Gates, they were decent and a little better after break-in than the G-Snakes, then I was like let me try the Big Sur version, again marginally better than the Golden Gates again after break-in but the Big Sur cables seem to keep getting better, then I was curious so I listened to a few cd's and High Res files with the 60hr used Big Sur cables then for curiosity put the g-snakes back in, now there is a fairly noticeable difference between those two and again between the Golden Gates. If you have quality gear it will make a difference. I now use the Golden Gates on my Onkyo C-7030 to Onkyo Receiver in another room. Very happy I upgraded.

I love Audio Quest, I am a big fan of their cinnamon line of cables, using all cinnamon cables in my theater room. I discovered the new line of "bridges & falls" interconnects. They put the same amount of quality control and engineering into their low end as the do there high end end. Leta face it, many of us are not going to spend $1000 for their Dimond line HDMI cable. But most of us may splurge for many of their others, optical, subwoofer, interconnects. Great company, never had any problems. Designed and made in USA. what more to ask from them... anyway the new bridges and falls line combined both interconnects in the same line, saving them money and passing it to us the consumer. I love them, cant wait to see whats next. Thanks, Ivan in MPLS

I've been slowly swapping-out all of my old RCA interconnects. I like Audioquest's product intent of "do no harm." While I don't believe interconnects can realistically improve upon the signal; I do agree that they shouldn't do anything to degrade it either. Depending on the application (home theater, PC audio, analog audio), I've opted to use Audioquest's Cinnamon, Golden Gate and Big Sur cables. I'm using the Big Sur cables for my higher-end phono/headphone listening. I like their compact size, build quality and, um, the cable finish/color - don't tell my wife, but I think they're kind pretty. It's really kind of a shame they're hidden, out of sight.

The AudioQuest Big Sur 2m RCA interconnect is a very high quality cable. I used this cable for a critical connection in my signal chain and it greatly reduced my noise level. The cable is very robust and the connectors fit snugly. Quality interconnects do make a difference, but there is a law of diminishing returns. Upgrading from a $6 interconnect to a $60 interconnect will make a noticeable difference, but an upgrade from a $60 interconnect to a $600 one will not be ten times better, especially if the rest of the components in your signal chain are not up to par.

So cables do matter. I am upgrading form mid level cable masters rca interlinks. They cost about $90 a set and sound decent. I thought they were good till I switched to the bug sur. Highs were most noticeable, they are clearer no smear and bass is tight. I am running a Yamaha AS501 via my PC ( jRiver media player) and a an outboard dac magic 100 using the 2.0 driver. Sends 32 bit really deep bass and clear mid and hig freqs. I Iose nothing with the big sur. These cables are well worth the money.

Purchased another Big Sur cable to run from Turntable to Phono Preamp. Now have Big Sur cabling throughout my system. Wanted to keep it consistent. You can hear the difference in my system. I live in the 1-day area for Crutchfield. Meaning that if I buy a product one day - the product is at my door the next business day morning. Sometimes I think if I were to order a pizza and a product from Crutchfield - Crutchfield product would get here before the pizza.

The AQ Big Sur are the real deal. I connected them to 45 yr old dual 1214 turntable that was sounding a little lackluster. I cleaned the outputs with alcohol and a Q-tip, attached the Big Sur cable and were back in business. The cable cost as much as the turntable cost new, but is way better than the one that came with. The second one I attached to a cassette player and it works great!

For whatever reasons! This interconnect sounds better on tons of different cable in its price range. So previlage to have a decent set up to hear the difference in sound quality and also presentation. It opens up the soundstage that will make you appreciate the money you put in to your 2 channel sound system. It is worth the money for this set of interconnects

Very good cable, profile is slim which makes it useful if you have an audio rack with a cable management hole. Sound is full and clear. One caveat - if your audio outputs are any distance apart, these cables will not work. With my Yamaha SACD player, the cable is fine. On my old Marantz, they wouldn't have worked because the outs were farther apart.

Initially, I thought the RCA cables were so small compared to the other cables I had. However, the sound of the Audio Quest is much clearer, due to less distortion, and less static feed back. In this case, it is not the size of the cable, but the inner components of the cable that make the noticeable difference!

I purchased these cables to connect my Marantz CD player to my receiver. I can not say enough about how much more detail there is now versus using the stock cables that came with the unit. An inexpensive but worthwhile upgrade.

I got two pairs for a bi amped car audio system and what a difference over another well known manufacture of car amps and cables. Cleaner highs, transparent details, smooth midrange and precise sound stage. Well worth the money.
