AudioQuest Rocket 22
Best speaker cable for audiophiles installing custom in-wall home theater systems.
The AudioQuest Rocket 22 is a bulk speaker cable designed for clean and unaltered audio signal transmission. It features a carefully engineered blend of Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) and Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors. These materials are arranged in a semi-solid concentric pattern with reversing spiral forms to maintain optimal wire positioning and contact, which minimizes signal distortion. This model is rated for in-wall use with CL3/FT4 compliance, making it suitable for various installations. Available in bulk lengths up to 100 meters, it ensures high-fidelity sound delivery throughout your system.

Know before you buy
Yes, the Rocket 22 is CL3/FT4 rated, which means it meets the safety standards required for in-wall installation in most residential settings.
By combining Perfect-Surface Copper (PSC) and Long-Grain Copper (LGC), this cable minimizes grain boundaries within the metal. This results in a smoother, clearer signal transmission compared to standard copper cables.
This specific arrangement keeps the individual strands in a fixed, stable position. By preventing the strands from shifting or interacting, it significantly reduces magnetic and electrical distortion.
The Rocket 22 is designed to reduce inductance, which helps maintain signal integrity across the entire frequency spectrum. You can expect more consistent performance from the deep bass up to the highest treble notes.
The Rocket 22 is sold as bulk cable, allowing you to cut it to the exact lengths required for your specific room layout. You will need to purchase and attach your own connectors separately.
