Audioquest Diamond Coax 3m and Black Beauty RCA 1m Review.

[Deleted member 97805]

These cables gave my system a lot of enhancements.
Bigger Soundstage, much more detail retrieval, more holographic imaging, tighter and more controlled bass and the removal of all digital glare and pixelation.
The Diamond Coax cost 2299 Euros and the Black beauty cost about 950 Euros.
The Black Beauty are the newest RCA cable generation and a bit more affordable than their much more expensive higher tier brothers. I think they are a bargain for under 1000 Euros.
The Diamond Coax 3m is another story. They cost 2300 Euros (Nowadays they cost close to 3000, I think) because they are one of the best coax cables I have ever heard. I heard better but those were in the 5 digit range. The Diamond Coax is a steal, compared to the other class of cables I have heard and very close. Yes, they had to be 3m for several reasons, which I wont mention here. I dont want to start another debate.

I make no measurements, so dont ask. What I can say is that I have these cables for about 2-3 years now and I know them very well.
Was the price worth it? Absolutely!

Sorry for posting in the wrong forum.
Since I presume nobody ever heard these cables, I am ready to answer your questions.
I dont think I have ever seen a review of the 3m Diamond Coax cable or the Black Beauty RCA here on this forum, or on any other tbh.
Edit: Yes, they are from a certified dealer, since you cant buy used AQ cables anywhere. Too many chinese fake ones out there.

It's all made up!

Please explain what 'the removal of digital pixelation' in a coax S/PDIF cable is. Actually, nevermind.

I would never suggest people to buy these cables UNLESS they know what they are buying and have very specific needs. My conclusion was that it was worth it *TO ME*.
But 99.9999 of people will never need these and so I will never recommend them to people. Especially those who are just looking for a "good Coaxial or RCA cable". I never once did.

Have you read any cable tests here before posting? Cables do not change the sound.

We will find someone all over the world who will be able to measure your cables properly, no doubt. For EU simply PM.

Friend, THEY ARE STEALING FROM YOU.

Cables are not physically capable of improving sound quality in these lengths at audio frequencies.

It's been proven over and over on the bench, and in blind tests, for decades now.

You do hear a difference, but the difference is in how you are listening, not the cables.

Save your money for real audio equipment.

Where's the measurements?

 

[G|force]

The company earned the moniker FRaudioquest
for good reason. It also has the feature of being hilarious. (to me, but I am easily amused)

 

[Ruediger]

DBS - it's even called dielectric BIAS system.

These guys have humor.

 

[Devnull]

950 Euros is not a bargain.

 

[Beave]

Now THAT is how you troll ASR.

Well done, OP. Well done.

Sorry for posting in the wrong forum.

Then delete it.

 

[Jcrow]

. I think they are a bargain for under 1000 Euros.

That’s hilarious!
Whatever you do, don’t read any cable reviews here. Otherwise some serious cognitive dissonance may unfold.

 

[boswell]

It appears the boxes/packaging, whatever, have stood up very well for 2-3 years, what is the frequency of use?

 

[Deleted member 97805]

950 Euros is not a bargain.

For these cables, it is.
I wonder why you dont get angry about the almost 3000 Euro Diamond Coax cable but instead attack the Black Beauty RCA?
Because the Diamond Coax was actually expensive and I wish it would have only cost 950 Euros.
These cables transformed my system and Im very glad I bought them.
I will not give any recommendation about buying these cables to anyone here. I thought people might be interested about exotic cables you seldom find here.
Is nobody interested about a 3m Diamond Coax cable? Have you ever even seen a review about them anywhere on the internet?
But I guess not...?
