Digital RapidRun Conclusion
Last year when we reviewed the RapidRun system we really thought that Impact Acoustics hit a home run. This year with the introduction of the RapidRun Digital Cable System, Impact Acoustics knocks it out of the ball park with the bases loaded. This innovative cable system and its ease of installation will surely be a hit with DIY home owners and home theater hobbyists. The fact that the cable can be installed first then field terminated later in multiple configurations should make the cable system a “no brainer” for smart custom A/V installers. The RapidRun Digital Cable System provides faultless high resolution HDMI signal transmission even under extreme circumstances and in different types of installations. We think its excellent shielding properties, overall great build quality, and clever engineering make it a grand slam.
The Score Card
The scoring below is based on each piece of equipment doing the duty it is designed for. The numbers are weighed heavily with respect to the individual cost of each unit, thus giving a rating roughly equal to:
Performance × Price Factor/Value = Rating
Audioholics.com note: The ratings indicated below are based on subjective listening and objective testing of the product in question. The rating scale is based on performance/value ratio. If you notice better performing products in future reviews that have lower numbers in certain areas, be aware that the value factor is most likely the culprit. Other Audioholics reviewers may rate products solely based on performance, and each reviewer has his/her own system for ratings.
