Steady state propagation of a magnetic perturbation along a monofilament superconducting wire in circumstances of thermomagnetic instability was investigated. At temperature T=4.2K and magnetic field B=0.5-0.7T the propagation velocity is v = 2.5 - 3.5 km/sec in NbTi wire and this one exceeds a 9 km/sec in NbZr wire.
