I have both. I have to be honest, I'm not very sensitive to cable changes and don't notice huge differences in them. I only seem to notice when they detract from the system. I had some entry level AQ cables, the G Snakes, and those were crap. I have a lot of AQ cables including some of the higher up ones like Cheetahs and Columbias. I recently picked up some Yukons and they do no harm. I think the King Cobras are just as good and as mentioned, you may be able to find them for less.
