I have owned varios AQ cables and fid just about all of them not only good value but one of my preferences in a cost no object,works VERY well with Magnan interconnects on front end components with either AQ or Kimber for pre to power connection.There are always variables but check it out,I think you'll like 'em. |

I recently upgraded to this cable after auditioning it in my home system. Everything sounds more fuller and richer compared to my previous AQ indigo, which was no slouch. |

The midnight 3 is not as good every say its.I have listen to a better cables then this.I think the oehlbach silver cable is quit close i would say ether one has it own advantage.The AQ would pick up more on the high side and a bit on the low side but the mid is not as rich as oehlbach .I use to hook them up to system which are DENON,MISSION,JEFF ROWLAND and a few more high end set and know i haven had the chance to listen to oehlbach (heavanly sound) i heard its quit good |

I accidently installed these cables backwards on my phonograph system. The sound was gibberish untill I played Beatles. "I burried Paul" and "See there, is that your dam father, rescue him." was clearly audible. This cable has made me hear things I've never heard before. It's a revolution (#9). I don't even mind that it's so stiff that I tore the binding posts right off my amplifier when I moved the speaker a bit. Make sure you buy twice as much as you need because it won't bend. Not suitable for speakers less than 30 Kg. as they will fall over from the weight and stiffness of the wires and plastic. The silver plating has tarnished a deathly back that comes off on everyting it touches. I'm sure it must be good because I paid so much rupies for it. For this much money, if it doesn't sound different than lamp cord, then I am a Goose. |

Just wanted to clear this up, with regards to the last three or four review here on Th Audioquest Midnight, these guys are playing games. I have owned Midnight3 and now Plus version along with others like Kimber 4tc/8tc Tara RSC, Purist Colossus and AQ Clear(which is awesome). The Midnight Plus is one of the most neutral, refined cables at 500.00 10ft run. Please tkae my word I have been doing this a long time. Associated equiptment, Sonic Frontiers, Sony, Pro Ac, Musical Fidelity and Audion 300 B's. Take my word Audioquest is one of the best cable manufactuers out there that design their OWN cable from scratch and build quailty is excellent. I really believe these last 2 star review were bullshiT. |

The Midnight 3 is a great cable which allows most of the music through.Treble is clean, midrange is sweet, and bass is controlled. The only |

Thhis speaker cable allows music to flow through like a waterfall off the Niagra Falls! Bass is well tamed, treble is sweet, but it's a hell of a thick hose. One thing about this cable, it can sometimes dull you're midrange, voices can get muddy if you partner it with the wrong equipment, so take care.. |
