New Audioquest cables equivalent to Audioquest to the old ones

With interconnects (latest versions to the right; ballpark 1m list prices are in parenthesis):
WEL - no earlier equivalent, but multiple revisions
Wild (4500) - no earlier equivalent, but multiple revisions
Sky I (2200) > Sky II (2700) > Fire (3000)
Cheetah (1000) > Niagara (1750) > Wind (2000)
**PSS Silver above here; PSC+ Copper below**
Panther (600) > Colorado (900) > Earth (1100)
Jaguar (350) > Columbia (450) > Water (500)
**DBS above here; no DBS below**
King Cobra > Yukon

Even towards the bottom & left are decent cables, but as 4425 mentioned, the Wind on up are really excellent -- this is where real improvements can be easily discerned on high-resolution gear. I also find even the ancient Sky I to be within a few hairs’ width of the "excellent" level as well (much warmer than Wind, though).

With speaker cables, they’ve changed so much in geometry and metal mixes that this is a futile exercise.

@mulveling WEL was originally known as "Horizon". Same conductors and geometry but a navy blue braid. Maybe someone else had rights on that name because it got changed to WEL within a year or so of release

The new aq cost a lot more $$$$$$ and do cause even less harm.

Honestly I am still a fan of aq old cables, the dragon and sterling speaker cables, diamond ic, this cables do have excellent tonal balance, and 3 dimensional, even new rising star cables can't do it.
