We investigate the response of the near-equilibrium quark-gluon plasma (QGP) to perturbation at nonhydrodynamic gradients. We propose a conceivable scenario under which sound mode continues to dominate the medium response in this regime. Such a scenario has been observed experimentally for various liquids and liquid metals. We further show that this extended hydrodynamic regime (EHR) indeed exists for both the weakly coupled kinetic equation in the relaxation time approximation (RTA) and the strongly coupled N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory. We construct a simple but nontrivial extension of Muller-Israel-Stewart (MIS) theory-namely MIS*-and demonstrate that it describes the EHR response for both the RTA and SYM theory. This indicates that MIS* equations can potentially be employed to search for QGP EHR via heavy-ion collisions.
