From the company that brought you Q Acoustics, our QED cables are built to last, with a lifetime warranty that allows for a lifetime of enhanced performance.Our multi award-winning Silver Anniversary XT cables deliver superior performance for all your hi-fi and home cinema needs. Designed as the natural replacement for our award-winning Silver Anniversary speaker cable, the XT combines the features of the Silver Anniversary with the added enhancement of X-TubeTM technology. This helps to combat the skin effect and deliver stunning detail. At low frequencies, both X-TubeTM and conventional stranded/solid core speaker cables convey signals in a linear way. At high frequencies, however, our X-TubeTM retains a near linear signal transfer whereas the conventional cables fail to conduct uniformly across the entire conductor area. The result is that X-TubeTM delivers greater fidelity across the audio spectrum that is lost in ordinary cables. High-performance, low density polyethylene dielectric cuts down on the amount of audio signal energy lost due to cable capacitance.

Beautiful build. Clean, detailed sound.
The build quality of this cable is extremely impressive. It also looks great.Sound-wise, it gives you a very clean and detailed sound. For this price, its worth every penny.I wish the length was longer, but for a desktop speaker setup, this cable is pure perfection.

GREAT value...these cables definitely make a difference
I do not claim to have a golden ear, but these cables are excellent. The speakers I own are great, but these cables added a sense of CRISPNESS to the sound. Guess what, I WAS going to buy a new one add-on supertweeter but I realize it's not necessary. And there's that.

Great sound quality
I bought this cable for my floor standing speakers - q Acoustic 3050i. It replaced monoprice 14 awg cable. Surprisingly sound quality is much improved though wire looks thinner but it works great

Welcome to The World Of High End Audio
For the money, these can't be beat. I'm running $1100 Audioquest Colorado cables on my main system. They're amazing. These $80 UK QED are only slightly less amazing. These live on my B system. I have no desire to change them. I prefer these Anniversary models over their Reference line, which I also own The Reference cables seemed to color the sound. These XT Anniversary are very, very good cables. I've been very impressed with most QED products. Excellent bang for the buck!

Just got the cables with missing banana plugs around the end of the cable.It's impossible to connect them in such way, you have nowhere to hold and put pressure into the speaker / receiver....

Good speaker cable
I had my doubts about spending this much on speaker cables but after replacing my 30+ year old Monster cables and Nakamichi banana plugs, I am sold. I did 2 separate mods to my speakers at the same time (added these cables and added spikes) so it wasn't really a controlled change, but I did notice the sound is more open, clear and dynamic. Maybe I am fooling myself but I can hear a difference.

Excellent
Excellent these were recommended to me I didn’t expect to hear the difference but I definitely could if you’ve got good speakers then get good cable.

Sorprendente
Nella mia vita di audiofilo ho avuto modo di ascoltare molti cavi di potenza, da marchi blasonati a progetti artigianali con cat6 più o meno intrecciati. Ho acquistato questi QED più per curiosità che per altro, attratto dal prezzo molto conveniente e dalle recensioni che ne decantavano la trasparenza.Amplificatore Musical Fidelity A300 con Magneplanar 1.4 e Warfedale EVO 4.4.La confezione mi pare ridicola per quanto piccola e leggera: il cavo che ne esce mi fa sorridere perchè così sottile e leggero rispetto alle mie abitudini, ma decido di provarlo subito.Non mi dilungo troppo, ma il suono che esce subito è dettagliato, trasparente e piacevolissimo. Rispetto al mio cavo di riferimento, è un filino più "leggero" (ma non tanto) cosicchè la parte bassa ha un po' meno impatto live, ma acquista più articolazione. La dinamica è leggermente meno esplosiva.Un cavo assolutamente consigliato!Per ora lo lascio rodare un po' ma vi assicuro che da subito suona molto convincente.

Buen cable de altavoz
El cable es bastante bueno. Entrega un sonido bastante limpio (quizás pueda ser un poco "analítico" para el gusto de algunos). Esta muy bien terminado y estéticamente es bonito (el ser blanco se camufla bien con la pared blanca).Como única pega su poca flexibilidad.

Excellent !
on ne soulignera jamais assez l'importance de la connectique pour l'optimisation du son.Qed est vraiment un gage de qualité, ma chaîne est entièrement connectée en Qed, de la platine à l'ampli et de l'ampli aux enceintes.La difference de qualité du son est vraiment audible, qualité et profondeur de l'image stéréo, présence des basses, précision de l'aigu.Un petit investissement qui fera une grande différence pour les mélomanes audiophiles.
