The new line-up of cables Speaker Ricable : let's take stock

Dedalus Speaker Elite

In view of the "hot" time of year - evidently not in terms of weather, but in terms of Hi-Fi - Ricable has reorganised the line-up of its cables Speaker . There are brand new products, as well as small, major improvements to existing products. The aim of this review of the offering was to keep the bar high for the Speaker Ricable cables in terms of performance, as well as unbeatable value for money. But another objective was to diversify, at commercial level, the offer, so as to offer everyone the right cable for their system.

New to the line-up: Dedalus Speaker Elite

Starting from the top of the pyramid and therefore from the most prestigious cable, we find Invictus Speaker Referencewhich is not a new entry, but an old acquaintance. Going down a step we find instead an absolute novelty: Dedalus Speaker Elite. Dedalus Speaker Elite was created to fill a hole that had been created with the release of Invictus Speaker Reference. The Reference cable was too big a gap compared to the slightly inferior Dedalus Speaker. A cable was needed that would allow those looking for something "in between" to be satisfied. That cable is Dedalus Speaker Elite. Dedalus Speaker Elite is very close in concept to Invictus Speaker Reference, but has minor limitations that make the cost of the finished product more affordable.

Compared to the 'classic' Dedalus Speaker, however, the leap forward is really significant. This can be seen above all in the naturalness and control of the sound. So much so that the listening dynamics are more reminiscent of its big brother Invictus than of its little brother. Dedalus Speaker Elite is not, however, a Invictus made on the cheap, but comes from a unique and revolutionary project that sees, for example, the conductor designed from scratch with geometry inspired by Invictus and a new livery. All in all, Dedalus Speaker Elite is the ideal solution for high-end systems, even if not of absolute level; in fact, in this typology of Hi-Fi systems, even if there have been some reductions compared to the cable Invictus, the difference in listening is not so high.

Cables Speaker Dedalus and Primus Speaker MKII

It was just in the last article we published we talked about what MKII means and how it came into being and then entered the world of Hi-Fi. We wouldn't be bringing this up if it weren't for the fact that, in addition to the introduction of the Dedalus Speaker Elite,the standard Dedalus Speaker has had some changes made to the line-up of cables at Speaker that haveled to the MKII version. The main one is the shielding, which has now become double, allowing protection equal to that of the top of the range cables. The internal insulation has also been improved and the R-TEC dielectrics have been increased.

Primus Speaker MKII

While Magnus Speaker MKII presents no additional novelties, also in view of the fact that it had already been upgraded to the MKII version in recent timesthe entry-level Speaker cable Ricable, Primus Speaker, has become a bit more grown-up. How? The most striking thing is undoubtedly the aesthetic restyling, but in addition to the form Primus Speaker MKII also improves the substance. In fact, this new version sees the insertion of an aluminium shielding and, just before the outer sheath, an aluminium cable. mylar just before the external sheath. As we also remind you in the relative product pages, the products with the MKII wording do not refer to a totally new product, like Dedalus Elite Speaker, but to a product revised and improved in its already valid performance.

The icing on the cake: Dedalus Bridge Elite

We have never overlooked the importance of the jumpers.We have never neglected the importance of jumpers, also because the ones supplied are almost always made of very poor quality brass. Here then, to complete the picture of the new cables Speaker Ricable we have the jumpers Dedalus Bridge in their new variant, available both with spades/spades and with spades/bananas, with the conductors of Dedalus Speaker Elite. With this article we hope to have given you a concise but comprehensive overview of the Ricable line-up of Speaker cables. The contents for in-depth analysis, however, are really many, so we refer you to the page dedicated to this type of cables to take a general look and, possibly, deepen each cable by visiting the relevant product page.
