Audioquest Diamond X3 Cable spotters ?


Hi,
I just got a new audioquest cable. I was under the impression it was a diamond x3. Problem is that it has no model id markings on it whatsoever. It has well finished silver xlr connectors with AQ written in white or red on the connectors. They are waco brand connectors. The jacket is uniform dark blue. You can see a thin wire is spiraled under the jacket. It sounds good - it sounds a little better than an RCA nordost red dawn. What is this thing ?

Hey thanks for all the help! Plus 2's for all !

I contacted the dealer and explained this wasn't the cable I had thought it was. It was advertised as an 'X3' which I thought only applied to the diamond. He paypal refunded my money right away & I am mailing the cable back. I want an X3 Diamond to match my hipass crossover's dogleg which is x3 diamond.

By the way, I found the writing using a magnifying glass. It's only about 1 millimeter high, and written in blue ink on a blue cable ! You do have to hold it up in the light. I can't believe that they write the model indicators in such illegible ink.

This dealer is audiogon id 'pekr1999', and he's got my business from now on. Good guy!
