New AQ Power Cables Incoming...

Can only trust the comments on sound quality, they do look like something capable. If I was not so cabled out I would consider a demo of these.
 
I have the Tornado, which are amazing (thanks again Mike). After I upgrade my speakers, the next step will probably be my DAC/the Hurricanes. A wee while away yet.
 
I find the Hurricanes to be very alive, energetic, dynamic, punchy and with lots of body. Definitely hard to burn-in but that's not really a downside!

Hurricane on DAC just brings the music together IME. Very pleasant to listen to.

No. Just different color.

I have spoken with Bill Low in Munich and he told me there ARE small differencies in the new version. The Hurricane was the first cable of the Storm series that was introduced by AQ. Bill told me they have learned a few tricks working on the more expensive Dragon, which have now been passed on to the Hurricane.

Adam, I just confirmed with Garth and I will forward you a copy of his email. He confirmed, there are no changes to the Hurricane, just the color.

Well, maybe the "small cdifferences" were worked into the Hurricane before the color change :lol:
I have both older red, newer red, and blue, but I'm not going to go swap happy looking for sonic differences. They all sound great. I'm more interested in the new cable(s) between Hurricane and Dragon, but the reported upcoming price increases puts a bit of a damper on it.

Well, I've read Gareth's email and indeed he says there is no difference between the old and new Hurricane apart from the blue jacket. The reason they changed the jacket from Red to Blue is 'cos they felt the new upcoming Fire Bird should be red :)

Since Bill Low told me about this in Munich, where I have spoken with like 1000 people about all stuff audio related, I must have mixed sth up.
 
Where will the Fire Bird fall in the line? Above the Hurricane and below the Dragon? I have not seen info on it yet...
 
My Hurricane for the DAC arrived today (thanks to Mike). On with the break-in process. Anyone knows how many hours?
