ViaBlue ROCKET XL Cable-Lifter

The ViaBlue ROCKET XL is the larger version of the ROCKET cable lifter – for more cables, more weight and a more presentable look, right up to the granite version.

Where the regular ROCKET reaches its limits – thick speaker cables, several parallel connections, a whole bundle of power and signal cables – the ROCKET XL takes over. A larger footprint and more stability ensure that even a full cable bundle stays securely off the floor, instead of slipping back down after a few weeks.

What you get

You get sturdy cable lifters in two sets: 2 pieces for individual crossing points (for example where a cable crosses a doorsill or walkway), or 8 pieces to lift an entire cable run continuously. For colour you can choose between understated black, light silver – or the granite version, which visually disappears on a stone floor or next to a stone-plinth speaker instead of standing out.

Who is the ROCKET XL Cable-Lifter suitable for?

Ideal when several or thicker cables are visibly run over a longer distance – for instance from the rack to freestanding floor speakers. For a single thin cable over a short distance, the smaller ROCKET is usually completely sufficient, saving you the extra cost of the XL version.

Our verdict

The cable lifter for the serious case: several cables, plenty of weight, high demands on appearance. Anyone who has ever seen a cable lifter buckle under a thick speaker cable will appreciate the extra stability.

Frequently asked questions

When is the ROCKET XL worthwhile instead of the regular ROCKET?

As soon as several cables run together, or a thick speaker cable runs over a distance. The larger footprint carries more weight securely without the lifter tipping sideways.

What's the difference between the set of 2 and the set of 8?

The set of 2 is enough for individual crossing points, for instance at a doorsill. The set of 8 lifts an entire cable run continuously – useful when the cable is visibly run over several metres.

Why choose the granite version instead of black or silver?

Purely a matter of looks: granite suits stone floors, natural stone plinths or an upscale living room where a plastic look would stand out. Functionally, all three colours are identical.

Does the ROCKET XL also carry a bi-wire cable like the SC-4?

Yes, it's designed for that. For very bulky cable bundles with several parallel runs, the set of 8 is recommended so the weight is spread across more support points.

Why buy the ViaBlue ROCKET XL at HD Zürisee?
