AudioQuest 1000 Speaker connectors or 1007 What is the difference?
From what I can tell the 1007 uses purple copper and can accommodate up to 7ga. while the 1000 uses red copper and can accommodate up to 9ga.

I am having trouble finding the 1000 series, perhaps has it been replaced by the 1007?

Which is better sounding?

I have found that the 1007 is part of the 1000 series. All the 1000 series are made from red copper while the 500 series use purple copper, which is supposed to be not as pure as the red copper.

LMAO, if you think at a speaker connection you're gonna tell the difference !!! For the record red / purple the purity level is pretty much the same, the purple meaning nothing more than a thin layer of oxidation
