I have owned the Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun and Double Barrel speaker cables, as well as the Audioquest Gibraltar speaker cables.
They both have fine qualities that will work well in certain applications.
In my opinion, in my system, the Audioquest was a bit clearer with a tad more extension in the highs. The Acoustic Zen offered a slighter warmer sound with a fuller bass.
They both presented a pretty nice sound-stage, but the AZ stage was a bit deeper, which was more to my liking. Overall, I would give the slight nod to the AZ cables.
Obviously, YMMV.
Cheers,
John
